iuthruandthru Posted February 24, 2021 Report Share Posted February 24, 2021 My youngest kid followers Parker Stewart among many other players religiously. He has never played a game. If he posted about the new hot shoe at Dicks she would pay attention. Not only is it about who is following you on social media it’s about the age of that follower. That 13-24 demographic is most likely to follow these guys and most likely to spend on said products. We are going to see players posting about all kinds of products that none of us will care about but the kids will be all in on. Also let’s not forget this also does help the non stars. A golfer or volleyball player at IU should be allowed to sell their time to give lessons. Or maybe someone holds an independent camp where I get paid a stipend to help run things. Lots of avenues to generate revenue for yourself. Hell I have paid coaches directly a lot of money for one on one lessons with my kids. I would love to get someone that plays in the NCAA that is closer in age to my kid and clearly understands what they are going through as a young athlete. Relating to your coach is a lot harder when they are older and the opposite sex which unfortunately happens a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC2345 Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I think the team plane should just leave Archie in Newark when it takes off to head back to Bloomington. This is a joke but hey maybe it’ll get better when he gets his guys in here and the team gets old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FW_Hoosier Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I didn’t think there was any chance he’d be getting fired after this year, but to be honest he might not make it to next year at this point. If we get disemboweled in West Lafayette to cap off a five game losing streak to end the season, get knocked out of the BTT early, and miss the tournament when the entire thing is being played in Indiana, including Assembly Hall... I don’t know if he’ll be able to survive that, COVID or not. TJD leaving also has to be a factor here, because next year is going to be even more of a s***show if that happens.

I don't see how you can keep your job when in year 2 you lose 12 of 13 with Romeo Langford, in year 3 you lose to Purdue in Bob Knight's return to Assembly Hall, and then in year 4 you miss the tournament when the entire thing is being played in Indiana.

Indykev Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I would like to say Congrats to Coach Miller with one more loss will be the first coach in IU history to have 4 straight losing Big Ten seasons. If you don't think its time he goes I don't know what to say to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I am serious here and I think all the fans needs to ban together and try to let our voices heard. I have e-mailed Dolson twice and know people make fun of that but maybe if we get the whole fan base to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond those flashpoints, there’s just not really a single metric that supports keeping him, any way you look at it. He’s 17-20 in February and March since he got to IU, with what’s looking like a lot more losses on the horizon this season. Mediocre recruiting, no player development, soft teams. The program is just garbage all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NotIThatLives Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 This university kept Crean a year too long and I'm guessing it will happen again. So the buyout doesn't go down until March or April of 22? Fred Glass, the master of all basketball coach contracts. I wonder if I could hire Crean or Archie's agent for just an hour to see what financial magic they can do in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 Go ahead and make fun of me but I just sent this to Scott Dolson Two words about tonight's game Pathetic Embarrassing There is no way you can justify bringing back a coach that will have 4 straight losing seasons in the conference. it is embarrassing for IU basketball to be battling to finish 10th in the conference every year. This team looks like they quit in the second half tonight and that is not acceptable for any player at IU. We should be battling for the conference title at IU but we are in the same category as Rutgers and Minnesota. If you bring him back next year I would guarantee you will lose more fans and if they allow fans in AH next year it will be a lot of empty seats.

madmax Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 I know I am probably outnumbered 10,000 to 1 on this, but I still don't want him fired yet. I think you have to give him next year even still. I'm not sure at this point I can justify this my stance(actually I'm quite certain that I can't), but I just desperately don't want another coaching change and want to believe CAM is the guy. Go ahead, give me my lumps. I welcome them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
