Read the article. Read the arrest report. This isn’t “baggage.” The guy assaulted his fiancé to the point where the injuries were visible to the responding police officer. They separated after six years. He was fired for cause and was paid zero dollars and he did not fight it. He stated he had videos to exonerate himself then refused to supply them.  
 

The arrest report is in the above tweet. I’d encourage everyone to read that and seriously consider if you’d want anyone involved in that anywhere near IU basketball. DV doesn’t just manifest itself once with a 911 call. These things don’t happen in a vacuum. 
 

Not that any of it matters as Jers stated. IU is never hiring Chris Beard. 

I’m a firm believer in people can get their lives right and deserve a 2nd chance. But that doesn’t mean taking over a historic blue blood program. Sure he wins. But so do a bunch of other coaches out there.  No need to go down the Beard road imo.

Brad S - Just does not seem likely at this point BUT not saying I am not sitting here with my fingers and toes crossed lol

McCollum - In the Cignetti mold as far as his record....not sure why he has not received bigger offers yet....seems like we would miss one if we don't grab him

May - Go for it. I guess it just seems strange if he would leave a program like Michigan after 1 year to rebuild our program but maybe he does have that kind of love for IU....Hope so!

We were all told this. By Woody in his postgame presser after Illinoizzz

I just re-watched, missed that. He does mention making changes to the guys starting, to get us off to a good start. 

I think my mind was too boggled by the "I wish I knew" answer of the next question about 60 in the first half and erased anything I heard before it.

I’m sure Louisville and Kentucky vetted him too. And obviously passed.

All these posts speculating that a midseason change is coming ... 

Such visceral reactions, wholly based on emotions. 

In no way, shape or form does that follow the process. 

Folks, it's a linear journey, with a rigid proscribed set of waypoints, leading, without exception, to a logical and predictable conclusion.

I have to wonder if something happened to the team internally right before the Iowa game. I thought the previous 3 games we played better and actually played hard in those games. It all disappeared in the Iowa and UI game

I think they should pick one of us on this board to be the interim coach because we probably know more than the 3 assistants on the bench.

I wouldn't argue that. Maybe a BTB rock, paper, scissors before each game to see who leads us

Ha. I don’t think it goes past May given his IU buyout he has with UM.  

I am not being a ******, just asking...have we confirmed that report about his buyout is true? I have never seen that other than posts on this board....I believe it...just did not know if we had proof...

Drake coach is on it as well.  His agents have been contacted.  

Sweet.  I'd love a great modern X's and O's coach.  Plug him into our NIL and let's go.

Just need Scott to make sure he translate to IU so we avoid an Archie situation.
