Billingsley99 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 Has anyone heard the 2nd name that was mentioned as a candidate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUFLA Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 One other factor... Boeheim is 75 years old...Allen has to know where he sits in the pecking order...if he doesn't think he'd be considered for the job (if he wants it in the first place) then a move may be smart. And for anybody that would say, "well there's always the possibility Archie won't be around in 2 years" yes, something to consider, but Boeheim's exit from the Syracuse program is inevitable, while Archie's, while possible, is speculation...

But with that said, what makes you think Griffin can’t have a big impact on recruiting? He comes with over 15 years of D1 coaching experience, has spent time in the Big East, the ACC and the A-10, all on top of being a really good Big East player himself. I'm not saying he won't. I don't know anything about the guy other than reading his bio yesterday. I'm not bashing him, I was just saying that Archie is clearly going after an assistant he is familiar with which is not a bad thing. I was just hoping it was someone that could bring a recruiting "buzz" to the Hoosiers but I would not be upset at all if Griffin is the choice.

I don't really know what assistant coaches you are talking about that would bring that buzz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed...if they had buzz they would be head coaches. You want great communicators, hard workers, and intelligent assistants but I’d say buzz is not something that I would value highly. Any buzz and they likely will be gone to a head job soon anyways. Some like having the spot light off them and pressure off and just perfecting their craft.

But my mind first went to Tyra. Even whith limited coaching experience. That was not a problem for another Indiana school. Tyra knows how to ball. Once more. I have not clue. Just was told not to be surprised if the other candidate turns out to be a lady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledies22 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 When i go to peegs/247sports, on the individual recruits it lists schools and who is recruiting them from said school. Most of them are left blank, some have head coaches names. IU you usually see TO as the recruiter, there were 2 or three that i saw Flint listed. Is there a significance, does it not matter, is the information even accurate? For Blake Wesley, it has Bruiser Flint being IU's recruiter, but it also says we have 5 SG on the roster with 0 SG commits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 I was just told to scratch Tyra speculation off the list. No female. Two candidates remain. Both from the East Coast. And may hear soon. Again.... no names. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might look at Ragland from Utah St. because he has some experience and has worked in Indiana which could be a plus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btroesch14 Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 What in the hell makes you guys think Tyra Buss should be in consideration for an assistant coaching job on the IU Men’s basketball staff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure it’s a joke. I mean give her 10-15 years of experience who knows but she is no more qualified then say Juwan Morgan taking the job. I don’t see a female coach necessarily a bad thing...but many many ahead of her for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosierfan0302 Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 What about Carlin Hartman, Oklahoma. Named the 3rd best assistant in the Big 12. Made 220,000 last year .

Well a lot of posters on here mentioned Mike Miller and I think he would bring some buzz. Pretty much any successful former NBA players would as well since the main focus of many of the prospects we are interested in is to get to the league. They look at the records of head coaches putting players in the league and it doesn't hurt to have former NBA players on staff to give them some guidance and help prepare them. And if they had some connections well that wouldn't hurt either. That's all I'm saying. But Archie isn't going that route anyway it appears so it doesn't matter.
