If they can’t land any of the top candidates I wouldn’t be surprised if a change is made and Alford finally gets a call whenever the administration finally decides it’s time to make a change. Dolson does have a connection to Alford and others. Dolson has been feeling the heat all year as other programs in IU athletic department are doing really well to well except the basketball program which is the most important to most of the big money people.

If you're talking about a team that shoots 75% I like playing defense there. I don’t disagree with it being situational at all but against that poor of a shooting team you extend 11 out of 10 times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't possibly do any worse and at least he knows how to teach offense. Hell no, if that's the hire wemay as well fold as a program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea. He's had 4 years, not 3. And if a potential coach was afraid of this job because he wouldn't think he could win after 3 years, then it's not somebody who should be on our radar anyway.

I don’t give a crap about the buyout! The absence of ticket sales has made an impact on the athletics department revenue. Yes the university has the money but it will come from big donors as some on here have said! 3 million obviously is much easier to pay out than 10 . Who knows what will happen at this point in time but there is a lot of pressure on dolson . I am not saying anything that a lot of people who have lived here most of their lives hasn’t heard through people they know connected to the university.

KoB2011 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Honestly some of you all so consistently argue in such bad faith it makes you think you don't have any real arguments for me moving on from Archie. That or some of you have never had to actually make a serious presentation to make the case for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoosier_exotics Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 If I am Dolson, I would be talking to Cuban about assisting me in a coaching search. Just him, his $$, and myself... I would be looking for someone with NBA experience and an offense that is appealing to days recruits... no Alfords, no too tan clappers, no defense only coaches..

Doesn't have to be a current NBA coach, just someone who has been there, understands it and can sell himself as being able to get recruits there... not saying 1 and done factory, but I think we have to adjust with the way the game is trending.

Bustout Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Unless they basically lose out, I’m guessing Archie gets one more year minimum. Archie can point to some good wins and if they make toruney, have a normal off season, TJD comes back ... they SHOULD be a top B1G team next year. Next years team should line up to be solid and Dolson, while evaluating this year, will point to next year as the put up or shut up year. Just my $0.02. Which isn’t worth much. Not to mention, the freshman class looks really solid and are mostly 4-year guys. Maybe 5 with COVID. Next best class are the Sophomores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Year 1: 9-9 Year 2: 8-12 Year 3: 9-11 Year 4: 4-5 Overall B1G Record: 30-37 That isn’t going to get it done. CAM doesn’t know how to win against other coaches in the B1G and it shows. I don’t see this record getting much better and that’s a problem but hey it’s probably the players fault or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 2 hours ago, BGleas said: This loss is on the players, not Archie. What I would say is that it was Archie that recruited these players and he needs to know if these players play with heart. That is the problem recruiting today because it is all about AAU ball and not high school. In AAU it is hard to see if a player actually has the fire inside him to motivate him to play hard every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
