Shrews coming back to Indiana?

Brey sounded like he really wanted out of South Bend -- sounded as if he had issues with ND's rules on NIL. 

Also saw that Providence is expected to go after him. Is Providence a better job than Penn State? 

 

 

Go to ND would be nice

4-5 good years for him at ND, then Indiana comes calling. Likeable, good coach. I’d be happy with that.

With PSU losing Pickett, Lundy, Dread, Wynter, and Funk, if Shrewsbury leaves they'll lose their recruits and that program will be a dumpster fire.

I believe our king Dan Dakich refers to that as “water finding its level”.

I think Shrewsberry would be a great fit for ND, I hope he goes there so then I can catch some games in person.

A new crop of candidates are starting to emerge for when we may have a vacancy within 5 years or so. Dusty May, Shrewsberry, Michael Lewis to name a few. My guess is May won't be at FAU long now.

5 years should ne plenty of time to prove yourself.

While I will always root for Indiana teams, Shrews to ND could be bad for us. First, ND has serious cash. I'm not sure we could outbid them if it came to that. Second, while he wouldn't be in the B1G anymore, he will be in direct competition with us in recruiting. There are very few people on the planet as well connected in this state as Shrews. He recruits La Lu very well already and if he goes to ND he will be right down the street. I obviously don't want him at PSU but its easier for IU if ND sucks haha

Welcome aboard @SamIam.  Hope to see you as a frequent poster. 

Big thing for a bball coach at ND is much like it is for Holtmann at O$U.  Football is the #1 priority.  Certainly there's a lot of ND alums with serious cash but ponying up for bball vs. Touchdown Jesus I'm not so sure.

I'm not sure I buy that ND had tons of cash relative to IU but I'm pretty sure if they do football is option 1, option 2, and option 3 of where to spend it. That is certainly not the case with IU. Also, if the rumors are true, ND is reluctant to spend it on recruiting.

Thats a fair point but I do think we underestimate how much easier it is for a football school to spend. They might not even need to go to the booster money. They have a top 5 apparel contract, their own TV contract, and they already outspend Purdue on basketball.

This isn’t the 90’s where NDs TV deal sets them apart. On top of that they are really behind the 8 ball on the NIL. If you think some of our alumni are sticks in the mud about NIL you should hear theirs. Their AD even made a half hearted threat to go D3 over the issue. Their football team has lost several recruits over it. 
 

Otherwise I agree with you about recruiting. But I think he hurts Purdue the most. They kind of recruit the same territory/kids up there.
