So not Lewis. http://www.uncgspartans.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=32200&ATCLID=209255391 There's another IU board ? Seriously. Pump the breaks, folks. I feel this will a big week in terms of answering our questions, in terms of the new assistant coach, as well as the official schedule for the upcoming season.

I am a Micheal Lewis fan. FWIW. Michael. Micheal ! Come back home. Screw L.A. It's loaded with millions of rats. LOL Love ya Andy. Still feel we will have a grip on our questions, sometime this week.

Indiana native, former player (three-time Academic All-Big Ten, Big Ten Sportsmanship Award winner in 2005 and a team captain), connections to Knight (for the older folks), 8 years of coaching experience (where teams haven gotten progressively better, which normally = good coaching, recruiting and player/program development), and as previously mentioned, seems extremely passionate about IU/Bloomington.

Don't see many downsides if true. Only down side I see. Would be a huge buy out of a recently signed contract. Other than that, Andy. I am with you. Makes perfect sense to me.

However, I was talking about Michael Lewis. Who is now an assistant at UCLA. Not the other guy. FYI, Kentucky has an assistant who gets paid $900K per year. Hey, no problem.

Any time you poach another D-I program's top assistant you're probably making a good hire. The IU connections are gravy after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard from 2 different people within 20 minutes of each other so i assume they both had the same source. Their info is that the next hire is coming out of retirement . (NOT RMK) Maybe a load of crap but passing along what i heard in last hour. Larry Brown??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
