So your best candidate is someone coming off a 2 year show-cause?  You take him then because no other major wants him.

Thank the lord that Scott Dolson and Pam Whitten would not, under any circumstances, EVER consider Will Wade.

As far as running a CBB program without issues, to me Beard > Wade but they both have major skeletons in their closet.

His show-cause ended two years ago. He's 46-9 since at a school whose had two winning seasons in the last 20 years.

Kelvin Sampson recruited drug dealers and gangsters while coaching here. That's the biggest reason.

Powerless in todays world.

Will Wade would absolutely kill it at IU in this climate. Thick-skinned, doesn't give a s*** what people think, flat-out winner. But yeah let's hire Brad Brownell because he's a pro's pro whose never won anything. If Brad Brownell was from across the river in Henderson KY instead of Evansville he'd be an after thought. 

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^I just want to make sure that you know that this guy is Will Wade.

^^^^^^^^^This guy is Wade Wilson.

I feel like there may be some confusion based on your glorification of your client.

Have to remember that Williams team did worse against the Syracuse zone than Crean did

Yeah because that Cuse team was good.  
 
Williams also beat Cuse that year during the regular season.  And lost in the Elite 8.  You would think that Cuse team was trash the way some talk about it.   That Zone was a top 5 defense that year

Over. We give coaches four years apparently.

But me saying that Brownell would be a better choice than Wade because Brownell is a pro and not a smug, strong-@$$, bribe paying, 'bribe to fiancée of bribed player to cover up bribe', show cause scumbag?

Brownell is nowhere near my first choice, but I'm very comfortable saying that he's a better choice than the guy that's currently banished to McNeese State.

Archie and Woodson were trash and they got 4 so I’m guessing gamblers out there would say take the over

It was a joke because everybody always brings that up about Crean. I never said Syracuse was garbage and they were a top 10 team for most of the season

I'm talking about until we get the Fire Brad Brownell Thread started. Should have clarified. I would take the under on that easy. 

But yeah, if we're only interested in winning the press conference and not hiring the best basketball coach you'll likely get your wish. 

We aren't called Revolving Door U for no reason.

While everyone is here clutching their pearls about Will Wade, I'll remind everyone that we venerate a guy who did pic related. And throwing a chair isn't even the worst thing Knight did while he was here.

No one calls us that.

I nominate The Hump to be the next coach.  If you can’t beat it, join it.

My old Grade School Principal was nicknamed Hump. If he wasn't gone, I'd tell him to apply

Your shtick of blaming the fans for IU's failures is sooo stale.
