2015 #IUBB Offseason Thread

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,242]

Another day has past and the silence is deafening.  End of season closeout meetings with the players surely have finished and the silence is deafening.  No word from Bryant or Maker and the silence is deafening.  No word whatsoever from the AD and the silence is deafening.   For god's sake will someone speak up, the silence is deafening and driving us all crazy.

I don't think they make any announcement about it unless Crean were to be leaving.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 86,242]

And thus the silence has ended with the announcement that Robinson is leaving the program.  Still need at least 1 more to accommodate the 2 incoming freshman and maybe 2 more if Bryant or Maker ever make a decision (and the longer they delay the less likely I think it is that either picks IU).  The first domino has fallen; when does the next domino fall and who will be that domino?

It all happened in one day last year. Be prepared at any time.

They're waiting to see what players go into the Draft from some of the other schools to see what kind of playing time they can get.  We may not get either one of them but i don't necessarily think that we're out of the running.  I know that we'll definitely bring in some sort of low post player though, we have to.

@coachmayhew: @IUBTownHoops not player or coach involved but if all goes as planned you will want to hear all about it #secret

@coachmayhew: @IUBTownHoops wish I could tell you more, it will be worth the wait #IUBB

[WayneFleekHoosier 48,992]

@coachmayhew: @jwrobiso @IUBTownHoops what about former player/former coach?

His answer to further inquiry.

He's interviewing Guyton.

The guy was spot on. Same criticisms we have now, every one exactly the same.

Wow is that guy related to Nostradamus?

[Alford Bailey 12,424]

Yep I've read this and others.  Replace Dwade with Vic and Domonic James with Yogi and we are Crean at Maquette just in a bigger building.

Prophetic.

 

A key line is this one:

 

"Problem is, Indiana’s hiring the Final Four guy. If they ever get a glimpse of the NIT guy, things could turn nasty."
