That no look pass by Stirtz was a thing of beauty.

We hire him, we win a championship within his first four years I'm convinced

Hiring Dusty May last offseason would have made too much sense. 

The dysfunction was a blessing in disguise. 

Hire Ben McCollum this year and fulfill The Prophecy. 

He's 43... Banner 6, 7, 8...

I’m laughing maniacally at the possibilities 

[Magnanimous 4,572]

He’s kicking the crap out of KSU right now.

Drake is very well coached. Always in the right positions defensively, no offensive rebounds given up, and they run their stuff offensively. 

[sirhoosierlot 2,747]

Some of this is Mascari too though to be fair lol 

[Unexpectedflash 1,068]

I’d be curious what his offense looks like with better athletes and shooters. They have great spacing

Probably like 70's/80's/90's IU teams!

He's playing completely out of his mind. Shame he's out of eligibility after this year. Bet he'd be a great assistant coach next year if he passes up that financial analyst job they keep talking about lol

A team of D2 and Wyoming transfers blew a 20 point lead AT Kansas State, go into half up 9 and feel totally in control of the game?

Only word that comes to mind is "Cignetti-esque"  

[Unexpectedflash 1,068]

Needs some more variety in their offense. K state looks like they’ve figured out the high pick and roll every possession and DHOs. Only one person has made a 3 for them also and number 4 being a worse version of Ben Simmons is hurting a lot 

[HoosierTrav 7,886]

Four D2 transfers he’s doing this with. FOUR!! 
 

I’m going to be sick if he isn’t given any consideration. I’ll be dead if he’s hired inside of the conference. He will be leading a P4 team next year or the year after. Book it.

Dolson better move soon.  A school like UNC will soon scoop him up.

I’m sorry you missed those decades! I personally missed the 70’s but am glad to have seen the other two!

McCollum the latest shiny bauble.  Last year it was Josh Shertz.  Who will it be in 3 months?  Stay tuned to btb for the next exciting adventure of Search For A Coach.

I'm all in on the offensive end with McCollum. 

The defensive end,,,I thought I caught some Archie concepts. I could be wrong. 

 

I'm torn. I love watching that offense. Chris Beard or Ben McCollum????.

Their defense was quite good in the first half. 10-0 with a squad of D2 and Wyoming transfers over Miami FL, Kansas St. and other P5 teams… I’ve got no issue with his defensive concepts or ability to adjust them as time goes on. He only plays 7 guys… they’re gonna get gassed toward the end of games. I’m beyond impressed with the way that they went into OT on the road and left with a win. 

[Unexpectedflash 1,068]

Haha that’s funny. I’m yea opposite. I think McCollum can obviously coach defense but the offense gives me pause. I’ve watched 3 games now and the offense is very paint heavy which is fine but only 2 ppl made a 3 for them last game which I’m not sure would work in the big 10
