How is Darian DeVries Doing So Far?

Played that year with no fans in the building for home games so no home court advantage all year and they played the 4 hardest schedule overall that year as well.   He still sucked as coach at IU but some perspective on that season needs to be added 

He sucks as a coach in general. 23-43 in the A10 at Rhode Island with an above league average NIL. Used to have fans now the arena is empty, despite no Covid bubble. 
 

But this is a serious digression haha I don’t think anyone here wants Woody or Archie type hires ever again and we’re literally discussing among the two of the all time disappointing runs in IUBB history; just each have slightly different takes on *how* bad each is/was in their own right

Not that I particularly give a damn but I think it was a mistake for Archie to take the Rhode Island job.  My guess is he will be a volunteer assistant coach here in the very near future unless Dayton takes a 2nd Flyer on him...

Looking back at how their schedule ended up what a ridiculously hard schedule to play especially without your home court advantage while on the road that should help but man that schedule was brutal in his final year.   Only played 2 Q4 games all year  

 

I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume that “onlyfans records” ad at the bottom of your screen grab is not affiliated with the OnlyFans I’ve “heard” about?

That Warren Nolan site is worse than this place now.   He went the ads route and it’s hard to look at his stuff anymore.    Too bad because his team sheets are the best

Heck no. I can’t see any upside for IU and Devries’ reputation isn’t solidified enough to start running reclamation projects in his spare time. Unless Archie comes with an All-B1G center transfer attached there’s no way.

I believe the person meant somewhere in the near future since he will be out of coaching, not necessarily here at IU.  Like for his brother, or someone he has ties to.  Yeah I'd see no real way we'd allow that here for a variety of reasons.
