  2. Then you are settling and we will be right back here 4 years from now. Let things run the course. If we lose a couple of players who can't be patient, so be it. Getting the right coach is far more critical than any individual player.

  3. I might get over the Masshole comment, but being a Patriots fan??? There are lines that should not be crossed.

  4. I don’t, but I’m saying he’s connected and if a leak came about it would be from the athletic department. It’s basically a day away so we will see. They’ll probably announce Woodson then I will drink myself to death

  6. To be fair most over there are saying screw it’s let’s just get excited about it. Honestly I think it’s more boredom than anything. They have brought up some key things and Yeags has sent some very telling private messages to me in the past so I wouldn’t totally discredit it but I wouldn’t get too hyped either. I mean we did have the most fun on the boards when we thought Stevens was coming.

  19. I don’t think the problem is kids not knowing what IU basketball is about. We’ve gotten, what, the last 3 Mr. BBs in the state, and sprinkled in some other Indiana kids as well. There’s talent in and on this team, it’s a good number of in state kids, they just lack any sort of confidence or ability to handle adversity as a whole. IMO, the problem isn’t recruiting the wrong kids or kids not knowing what the program is about. It’s coaching them up.

  20. And I don't think anyone at Ohio State is beyond leaking incorrect information in order to make IU look bad and perhaps even put a bug in the OSU athletic departments ear about needing to re-up their commitment to coach Holtmann. OSU's athletic department is vicious and territorial. They have sued other schools for using "OSU", they have made sure that radio talk show hosts were fired for implying anything negative about their football program (Bruce Hooley, his nephew was a student and track athlete of mine, I know exactly what happened). OSU has a ton of money and people dedicated to the job of controlling information...a ton of propaganda comes out of that place...I wouldn't at all be surprised if this were part of it... plus, Doyel is nothing more than a shock jock...He is willing to say just about anything and will not own his mistakes...He says terrible things about players all season long, his critique of players and coaches often borders on personal attacks, calling the program a dumpster fire, and then acts like it is fans that make IU a hard place to play...he's a snake.

  21. You and Dakich have a mutual friend? Can you get word to Dakich that he's a Masshole whether he lives in New England or not.

  22. Sounds to me like Indiana should of posted the opening on Craigslist. Doing that might of gotten us a decent coach.

  24. Only way Texas is more desirable is if you are from Texas. Texas is a great state, but mainly for football. Nobody cares about Texas basketball they are just concerned with the following season of Longhorn football. Basketball will always be second fiddle there.

  25. I’m terrified to ask, but what’s the working theory on why we’ve worked it out with Stevens for awhile but they are delaying an announcement? The trade deadline wouldn’t and didn’t change anything. If Larranaga took over for the C’s, they still would have made the same deals. Short of a drastic change in heart, nothing makes sense here. With Beard, Texas is now open. Perfect storm has formed. Texas has been the worry with him all long. If he’s out for IU, I wonder if we have good back channel info on someone still coaching, like Muss or Oats? If it’s Oats, somebody has deep pockets to pay the $12.5 M buyout. The second donor is paying transition costs for the new coach and that’s always been an interesting clue. That’s not a term I recall from earlier searches. It’s as if something significant was referenced there. I mean, it’s not to pay Mayflower to get the new coach’s stuff. This is presumably a significant line item. So, why?

  26. I have zero information. What I will say is if you were going to time a hire. Saturday at Noon before Sweet 16 games start would be good.....or maybe 4/3 at 5pm would be better.

  27. He should just ask Ainge and Dolson if he can do both. With zoom meetings all the rage and tons of assistant coaches at his disposal, it really seems like a no-brainer. In fact, I'll go on record and call Coach Stevens a moron for not thinking of this option earlier. Think about it: DOUBLE SALARY!!

  28. I look at it this way. If Dolson was going to make an underwhelming hire he could have done it ten times already.

  29. All I’ll say is Yeagley is very close and he’s never wavered from his initial comments. We shall see.

  30. The other board is back with the Stevens talk. Yeagley and chris007 apparently think it's a real possibility.

  31. Don't forget guys. We maybe hiring a coach still coaching or was coaching. The portal works both ways. We could get a whole team of new players from the portal with the new coach. Stay positive we will get a good coach.

  42. And think about this. Saban said No emphatically to Bama 3/4 times before excepting. Again I don’t buy it either but it’s not unheard of for a coach to change their mind. After seeing the pathetic moves the Celtics made I would change my mind!

  43. Yeags is a former soccer player that is a on the coaching staff at IU soccer now. He played for Jerry Yeagley. Not saying what he says is gospel but he is inside the athletic department.

  45. Which I think, given this unique year, is why Dolson jumped the gun probably by a year. The offense became so unattractive nationally. Any new coach can rebuild by August. Yeah the $10mm could’ve been to make a run at Stevens ... but it was to make a change regardless- since any new coach can literally build a brand new team.
