I’m not getting my hopes up no matter what the rumor mill says.  I’ve been hurt before 

I’m just going to be hopeful that no matter who we end up getting, it’s gotta be a helluva lot better than the past 4 years. If it’s Stevens, that’s amazing, if not, so be it, but it’s gotta be better.

I hope IU can do better than this list.  Never heard of the site, but talk about underwhelming "replacements."  

Spoiler alert:

Mick Cronin, John Groce, Steve Alford, Richard Pitino, and Ben McCollum are the list.  Surely IU hasn't fallen this far.  Side note:  I Googled "Mike Woodson replacement" and that is how I found this link.  Barf!!

Boston Celtics are up for sale, their window to win has been the current and past two years, their “dynasty” will likely end here in the next 2 years with all those contracts coming to a head. 
 

Brad is a Hoosier, you don’t just quit coaching basketball at a young age. He misses it. It’s time to come home. 

It probably also makes a difference if him or his wife’s parents are getting older and they want to be around them more…. 
 

Am I the only one who also ranks coaches in who they could bring in the portal with them? Is there anyone from Ole Miss or Auburn or Gonzaga that would put a coach over the top? 
 

if it’s Stevens I think he is the only one who could get Mullins to flip… unfortunately he won’t even try to flip Haralson and I think he also keeps our two recruits that we currently have! 
 

people talk about wanting Few but did everyone forget he has a DUI or maybe 2? So it’s not like he’s Mr. Innocent either.

New ownership also. Might not have the same bond with the new guys.

New ownership will do everything to keep Stevens. He’s a significant part of the current value of the franchise. He’ll get a contract offer that will make his great grandchildren wealthy. He’ll be offered a minority interest in the Celtics.

Here is a better list than the one I provided a few minutes ago.  Much better.  Cronin, Pearl, Oats, Beard, and Scott Drew are on this list.  I'd take all of them but Cronin.

Woodson is finishing out the season according to Rabjohns. What a joke. Letting him finish out just reaffirms the zero faith I have for IU never getting out of their own way for basketball.

Lol no

Someone is taking things personally.

He was “retired”. Semantics aside. He hasn’t done his job and Indiana doesn’t want him as a coach anymore.

Brad Stevens hadn't coached college basketball in 10 years. Much has changed. 

I'm sure he's quit watching it, too, being a GM of a pro team that drafts...college players.

It doesn’t really matter. We can “start” the search now. It’s not gonna make a difference if he coaches or not. I’m just glad the contemplating bull **** is over with.

I think flipping current recruits (or bringing players with them into the portal) is of zero importance. This is about coaching accumen and culture and program building. If the right guy is brought in, he will use IU's NIL money to choose the right players and then develop relationships with HS players (unlike Woodson on both accounts) to get the right players into his system. 

If IU doesn't finish top 3 in the B1G in this first year, who cares? If he shows progress, the fan base will be thrilled...

How does that adversely affect IU ?

How does it help? What does it accomplish letting him finish. The fan base is done with him.

Well Rabby said it’s 100% official. He will coach until the end of the season “unless he changes his mind”

But with that announcement, a contract can officially be offered and signed by Brad.

LET THE FLIGHT TRACKING BEGIN

Probably best to wait till the end of the season to announce. Don’t want Woodson being asked questions about his replacement.
