There are more. But with that example, Archie shouldn't have to jump through hoops to get a grad transfer in. Do you actually have proof that their is things in the way of transfers. I have seen transfers come in here the last 10 or so years so it is not to hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted January 16, 2021 Report Share Posted January 16, 2021 Those that threw out Brad Brownell's name may want to check out Clemson's offensive performance in the first half against Virginia this evening. It's all how you pronounce the 'O'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hippopotamo Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 It cracks me up seeing some of the suggested names that get thrown out there. Brownell would be a terrible hire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigs in our conference are light years ahead of what anyone that Oats has to prepare for. I realize SEC basketball has won a tourney in the last 20 years so maybe we could embrace that style a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think to many people when we fired Crean thought we could bring in any coach in the country because we are IU. the problem is that is not the case and I bet when Duke, UNC and KU has openings will find the same thing. It seems like coaches today is not as worried about making as much money as they can and move up to the big time. there is reasons why a Mark Few stayed at Gonzaga or even a Byrd at Belmont and McKillop at Davidson stays. Those two coaches are good enough to be coaches at the top level of college basketball but was not interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't give me the players bills of rights because that doesn't hurt anything. That just provides 4 years of education but it doesn't guarantee you a spot on the team. We have great facilities with a new housing for players. Cook Hall is the state of the art facility and AH has been renovated. I want guys who can actually get into college and not have to do things just to get kids into IU For one, CAM was forced to keep everyone on the roster and recruit the three kids that had committed to Crean. Once more, he was told this after he had signed the contract. I didn't like the CAM hire. I thought it was lazy, unimaginative and uninspiring. I'm not sure that anybody was excited. But at least let him hit the ground running. I believe Glass retired because after a couple of years watching this, he said 'im outta here'.

Hoosierfan1901 Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 Like I said, AM probably has 1 more year to prove himself, if he gets fired after that season, I have a feeling an call to Thad Matta might happen depending on his health situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotIThatLives Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 Here's what I found on Matta. Doesn't sound like a guy that loves it or misses it. He had however listened to offers and reportedly turned down Georgia. Serious question is if he could mentally handle us. Yes, us IU fans. “Probably haven’t felt like this in 10 years. I found out stress is real. It’s a legit disease. In retirement you sleep until you’re tired of sleeping, then you go about and start your day. It’s being able to sleep in the night, you wake up in a good mood. I hadn’t woke up in a good mood in like 18 years. That’s what coaching is. You can’t be happy.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was for unpaid managers. That's not sustainable nor healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lives near Butler since juneish 2018 as far as I can tell. His daughter is at Butler. Wonder if he has any other kids or grand kids. Once those grandkids come I give it a very low chance.

Academic Progress Rate Explained | NCAA.org - The Official Site of the NCAA To me it appears you get two points per player and if they stay and are eligible you get 2 points. If a player leaves and is academically eligible you lose 1 point because he transferred. Of a player leaves and are academically ineligible you lose two points Because were so close to having our APR be below the threshold losing 3 players would hurt us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hippopotamo Posted January 17, 2021 Report Share Posted January 17, 2021 I’m really hoping this team can get Parker Stewart acclimated ASAP and end the season on a high note. I want to see Archie get a 5th year to see if he can get this program to the next level. If next year is bad I have no problems moving on, but I think he should get next year unless something goes horribly wrong the rest of the year.

I think coaches think they have to over work to be successful but I don't you do. You use to see football coaches sleeping in their offices and watch film all night. I think you can still have a balance of life and still be successful. Read stories on Mark Few on how he does not put in a lot of long hours and never sees his family. It seems like he found a great balance b between work and home life and is still successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
