If they did, we would never get a sniff from ANY halfway decent coach. If Archie Miller can’t win at Indiana, then the problem is much bigger and deeper than who’s the head coach. He was nearly unanimously regarded as a home run hire by national pundits and coaches.

Does anybody need help jumping off the cliff?  Calm down fellas.

I wonder if the losing streak destroyed our momentum?

[Uspshoosier]

No one in his home state will give a damn what he does from this point forward. I guess that doesn’t bother him. He will fade into obscurity a la Harris, Teague, Lyles, Wilkes, etc.

Nah plenty of people in this state like me that will watch them regardless of where they go to college. Now once they go to the NBA I won’t watch anymore but that because I don’t watch any NBA

He is not a one-and-done. He will end up playing in Belarus if he goes pro after one season.

Gotcha...well..he will still now see the Tourney next year and he can say hi to Romeo in Belarus :)

Checked the Kentucky board and looked at about 15 posts. Three of them were 

“not sure he’ll be a good fit.”

”how tall is he? Don’t care to look it up.”

”What position does he play?”

Surprised that " is he ranked in the top 15" wasn't a question! 

What a bunch of dopes!

Archie got the last 2 Indiana Mr. Basketball’s and people are saying he’s losing recruiting momentum. You guys need to get a grip and try to think rationally. We don’t get ANY of the current Indiana recruits the last two years with the previous staff. 

Just because Crean stunk out loud doesn’t mean momentum hasn’t been lost

If you don’t climb up you can’t jump off...

And stagnant offense
No accountability
Top five pick not showing
Fans pissed and rightfully so

Oh and Cal sold the farm.

The kid was patient enough to wait out higher UK priorities to land where he clearly wanted to be. Definition of a business decision. Good for him.  I hope experiencing that brazenly mercenary culture is everything he’s hoping for.

There is no fudging way that should be considered at this point. A kid buying snake oil from a snake oil salesman shouldn’t change that.

We have a 5* center, Mr. Basketball coming in next year. Something we DESPERATELY needed due to DeRon Davis’ health. Keion hurts but you’re not convincing me one iota that Archie has lost recruiting momentum. Quite the high expectations to think he is falling short bc he didn’t get two 5* recruits in his second class. If next years class stinks, I’ll start to inch into your side of the fence.

Let’s hope someone makes a massive jump this summer

Because of this?

Of course not, nor should they.

And if they fire him after 2 years you can FORGET ABOUT IU getting any good coach. Because what coach in their right mind would want to come here and be given so little rope.

So yes. Let’s fire him and then the only coaches that would want to come here are CC coaches or coaches that have been fired multiple times.

Let’s see how the coaching carousel shakes out. The Decommits and guys getting released from their LOIs is almost another recruiting period itself.

[Rico]

Did it ever occur to anybody that in the past few weeks that Archie told KBJ that he didn't want him?

[ElectricBoogaloo]

Alright Archie - we need to make some noise in the tournament next year. Three years of missing the big dance would be unacceptable. Now you have one less 5 star to help you do it. Let’s see those coaching chops.

I only saw him play once, at Southport against Romeo.  I came away less than impressed.  That said, he’s a top ranked player in the class for a reason, but I really don’t think it’s a big miss.  As others have said,  we don’t need one and dones right now.  This was his dad’s decision in my opinion.  Best of luck to them, but if I could bet on it, I’d say he’s overseas in 3 years and his time at UK goes nothing like Cal told him it would.
