Zeisloft and Roth Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Vetting and background wouldn't take long on KJ - all you need to do is lookup the FBI doc that lists him in the hotel room with a bag of $. Background and vetting complete...HARD PASS on KJ. I also think Sean's issues at Arizona make this type of hire next to impossible. Archie has to tread VERY cautiously.

Rabby hears a lot but doesn’t always say it in advance especially with recruits for example like when he leaked the Yogi announcement. Other people do too. How do you think Coach SS hears the things he does. People like to talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 If I had to put a guess down I am going with Micheal Lewis. Maybe the reason it took so long was that since he was just hired at UCLA it took some negotiating to get him out of his contract. I have no clue if this is what will happen just a guess but he does meet all of those criteria's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeisloft and Roth Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 I am guessing strong AAU connections and not previously leaked to payments to players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indykev Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 My guess Its Drew Adams. Ties to Indiana Elite(dad) played at Bloomington South. On Alfords and Craig Neals staff at Nen Mexico, now at Bradley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like who cares if you leak an assistant coach hire. You have to pay to get these quality vague hints. If you want actual information, you need to wait and find out on Twitter with everyone else.

Because this isn't the same as a player who wants his time in the sun, this is an assistant coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think it's more about giving tidbits to paid customers. Not sure if leaking an assistant coach hire is Area 51 stuff. These guys put in Chrystal Ball picks right before announcements which is basically a leak. If the contract has been signed, not sure why Archie would care one way or another if some super fans find out who the next assistant coach is. It's not earth shattering news.

Zeisloft and Roth Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Does Drew Adams have strong connections to the existing Indiana Elite program? Also, who of 2020 and 2021 class plays for Indiana Elite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But isn't it his job to find out this stuff? Reporters are supposed to be somewhat adversarial to who they are covering. I really don't know why subscribers pay him anything if he never reveals what he actually knows. In functional media markets, reporters will say "So and so will be the next IUBB assistant coach" regardless of who gets upset. The most glaring example is all of the NBA reporters knowing who is going where and for how much before free agency has officially begun (and by default revealing tampering violations).

Sure until you stop getting fed info. He leaks things when the time is right or when he’s told that he can. Obviously that hasn’t happened.

Are you really saying his only sources are from inside the program and those sources always coordinate when to tell him things and when he can release them to maximize IUBB PR? If so, that is a pretty damning assessment of his abilities as a reporter. That is the very worst of "homer" sports coverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feathery Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Dane Fife also fits the criteria and he is NOT next in line at MSU. Probably a HC somewhere as his next stop. Just giving someone who fits the criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
