IU Scott Posted June 28, 2019 Report Share Posted June 28, 2019 I think I am going to turn my resume into Archie for the job and be the shot doctor LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has won championships at Walderon and tech and if I am not mistaken coaches AAU. ball as well. I am not sure how the high school coaches got started but I don't see Archie going that route. No thanks. Given his reaction to IU fans after the Trey Lyles fiasco that he was knee deep in.....no way. Don't care if he sends us 10 Franklin's I won't forgive that time ever.

Wasn't there stuff with him and Paul Scruggs going off to prep school when he was the coach at Southport? I can't remember the details though. That Southport team was good with Brunk and Scruggs. They ran up against Romeo and New Albany though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spearheaded by his time at IU. And is not in it for the money. But rather, his love of the game. And his love of IU for what IU has done for him. Might just want to repay IU. Not only for what IU did for him. But for the simple pleasure of loving the game. No strings attached. Just a love of the game. And IU. And who does not love the great city of B-town ? IUBB and B-town. A match made in heaven. You know, I read this, and while it's not a perfect example, the first name that popped into my head was Scott Rolen.

NotIThatLives Posted June 29, 2019 Report Share Posted June 29, 2019 I'm trying to think like an 18 year old. If Jim Shannon shows up to watch my practice, I'm probably like, who's that? New Albanys old coach. Oh. End of thought process. I would think coaches would be more excited than the player. Walking in decked in IU gear will turn heads no matter what. We need a closer. Hopefully CAM has someone just for the job. In this day and age some NBA clout would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you're saying, but not sure I agree. I'll preface this by saying I live in Texas, so if you try to talk basketball down here, they turn the conversation to football or their latest fungal infection. So I don't get to hear any scuttle like a lot of people on here do. I've read on here that Schilling's 2 strengths were recruiting and player development. I would think it would be desirable for his replacement to have those same strengths. Having someone with an NBA "name" might be nice, but my fear would be that's all they bring. If you look at it, most assistants are obscure to the common fan or high school players until they start the recruitment process. I mean, can anyone here name any assistants on Virginia's or Villinova's staffs? I think Archie is a hard worker, and his selection here will probably mirror that work ethic. I think getting someone the high school coaches like and respect is crucial too. They're the front door to these kids. And we saw how badly not having that kind of presence hurt Mike Davis and Tom Crean in recruiting battles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that and do think he could get in the coaches office anywhere in the state and probably surrounding states. Does a 60 something year old man on the cusp of retirement want to work 80 hours a week? Maybe for a half a million for 3 years and a refactored state pension.

At this point in CBB, I'm not sure which is more important: High School coaches or AAU coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s got the cache of being Romeo’s Langford’s coach and is a recent state title winner, I’d guess Indiana high school players are very well aware of who he is. Nationally? Probably not though.

milehiiu Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 Ed was instrumental in the development of Yogi Ferrel, and Trevon Bluiet (Sp?). Yes. Indiana. Yet achieved national notoriety when he left Park Tudor for UCLA, according to UCLA: Ed Schilling - Men's Basketball Coach - UCLA Romeo Langford is moving on to the NBA. However, there are others that have moved to the next level. With Ed's help. So, I guess what I am saying is an HIgh School coach, can achieve recognition beyond his own state.
