West Virginia has been really, really bad since Huggins last year and after -- they were 9-23 last year.  

WVU has three wins over top 10 teams this season -- and could be on track to miss the NCAAs.

Either get a coach that IU wants/has to have (a very small handful)

but don’t just slide sideways for change that is/will be insignificant….just keep coach Woodson.

They are a projected 7 or 8 seed right now and have played without their best player for over a month

One game doesn’t make or break a coach, but that’s a hell of a good point!

Rick Pitino Jr. has done doing extremely well at New Mexico in a solid conference, he’s been mentored by the best, and he took his lumps and learned at Minnesota in the B1G (and had three 20 win seasons there). 

I have no reason to believe he’s being considered, but I’d get behind him in a heartbeat, and more so than McCollum.

I road up an elevator with him at the Hilton Garden Inn after we smacked their a$$.  Seemed like a good dude.  :)

Maybe....probably a bubble team right now.  On the good side, they have 4 Quad 1 wins and of their 7 losses 5 are quad 1 and 2 are quad 2.  46 in NET.  I would say right now that their trajectory is downtrending as they haven't played real well lately.  That said, they were picked to finish 13th out of 16 in the Big 12 so I'd say that DeVries has done a good job.

EDIT:  Nevermind, I see it's his son Tucker.

Thx... btw..ended my Dry January with the Java House Cold Brew Martini Stout at Sun King..very, very nice...

They didn't want to name it something people could remember? I love craft brews but some of the names are just ridiculous. Grandma's Left Handed Teet Milker Stout is the next beer I'll be brewing.

Why are you so argumentative and defensive about everything?  I was just talking about Bobby Hurley, which you answered but you started out argumentative something about Archie and his failures and a mid major being a failure.  Where were you going with that?

This thread turns a year old tomorrow. May it be filled with juicy rumors that keep me from getting anything done at work.

Not at all, I haven't been argumentive at all today. Really have no idea where you are getting this from. Someone said they worried about McCollum because he hasn't had any power conference experience. They brought up how was McCollum different than Archie because of Archie failing at IU. All I said is that because Archie failed doesn't mean you shy away from other mid major coaches.

Happy birthday, thread.

Now let's fire Mike Woodson.

And I will say until I’m blue in the face: EVERYBODY at IU gets dudes. That has never been the problem. NIL makes that even easier in some ways, I would guess. 

I think that is where Ben is different like CCC, he doesn't just want dudes! He wants his dudes, the ones that fit his system, understand,learn,execute,dominate! It's what IU basketball has been missing for 25 years!

It’s not just that. Archie was far far FAR more experienced at this level. He was a P5 player, a P5 assistant coach, and a deep run NCAA tournament head coach.

Until this season McCollum had quite literally never had any association with a D1 program; not as a player, a grad assistant, or as an assistant coach.

He might succeed greatly, but he would be an extremely risky choice.

Less of a risk than your guy micah, I promise you that!

Imagine if the king wins in madison. We have won there once in like 30 years. I doubt it happens but the burners would be on fire
