So the twitter burners have mentioned some "health issues" with the team as a "reason" why they aren't playing well.  I assume it's deeper than Malik's injury.  Any insight?  

Their arms are to swollen from the Cliff Marshall’s workouts.

I just wondered because I keep reading the first year is low on purpose, but it is $5mil ,then $4mil ,then $2mil, then $1mil, then $500,000.  I wonder if people are looking at his FAU buyout terms?

No that’s his UM deal.

Multiple problems with this.

Do we trust the staff to identify the right pieces?
Do we trust the staff to put the pieces of the puzzle together correctly?
Do we then after all that trust the system on the court to get the results we need?

For me,as of this year, my answer is no to all 3 questions.

Lol. My first answer to this thread. In regard to NIL, buying players.

Nailed it. Although I did later get caught up in the hype and general off season hype machine.

Not talking about now. Sampson’s guys were doing a lot worse than what has happened recently. He brought in a bunch of guys with really sketchy backgrounds. There was a huge chasm between DJ , Gordon and the other guys 

Sorry, I jumped in on the middle of your discussion.  I thought you were talking about this current culture or lack there of. Yes some of Sampson’s players were sketchy but his team was athletic and played hard.

Fair question. 
 

Recruiting/portal windows?

Are there still academic requirements?

 

Agree. There will always be some rules that have to be adhered to. 

But, I'm not so sure that I agree about academic rules. I mean, UNC ran fake classes for 18 years and didn't get sanctioned. That still blows my mind...

We definitely should have listened to the people who said that Carlyle was not an efficient player at Standford. LOL

I think part of it is figuring out who the interim coach will be. I’m sure there are a few coaches who want it. It could lead to big money at their next job if they get us playing well. Then does Jordy Or Calbert move up. How do we make it a smooth transition. Things like that. 

Just do it by Height.

Lots of red flags with him -- his disastrous tenure at Georgia being one.  

Kind of a shame that he couldn't get those things fixed earlier, because despite all his quirks, he seems like a decent enough dude. And despite his somewhat acrominous split with us -- it seems pretty obvious that he still loves the place. 

That's the thing that stands out.  The IU brand still attracted some Dudes.  Unlike GA.  Don't need the Lord Jesus himself.  Just a competent coach who can get it done.

Don’t understand why folks would want a guy like Sampson or Wade.

I get that what they did “then” is legal now.

But if a guy was willing to break the rules that were in place at the time, wonder if he’d break the rules that exist now?

What rules are those?  :)

What? Getting rid of Crean was not a mistake. He was 7th, 8th, 1st and 10th in the B1G in his last 4 years. And the B1G wasn't exactly worldbeaters during that period. 

Also, Crean couldn't get past the Sweet 16 with 2 of the top 5 players chosen in the NBA draft. How much talent did he require to make an elite 8 or final 4? LOL

The answer is Dwayne Wade.
