Almost every fan of every team does somewhat. It's not exclusive to IU.

Agreed

Just a question but I wonder if we over value our own guys

It looks like this hire could be very good. Glad to see some of our guys sticking around. I wonder if we tend to over value our own guys/ Indiana guys

Wondering how the Nets super team is going to work out. Nba is so crazy.

If harden continues to be a Team player they will be tough to beat

Langford back with Celts, able to start playing

I followed the Stevens saga the last couple of days on Btown Banners, but this is home

When your house burns down you may have to visit friends for a couple of days.  But this is home and this is my family.  

It's good to be home.

Also went to b-town banners to get updates- but better here!!

Pretty cool story

I am sad to say it but I don’t believe IU is the draw that we want to believe it is. Nova is a very good academic school

That's why I said "going forward”

I think after winning two of the last five championships his roster should be way more stacked than it is.  He would barely even have to leave the state to stack his roster in Indiana.

The reason I think he has the best program is he recruits a particular kind of Kid, not focused on the best, more the best fit.

In your opinion.  Would wright do better here than at nova going forward?

It’s an interesting question, hard to say he could do better than he has. In my opinion Nova has become the premier bb school, IU unfortunately has become a middling bb program with little national relevance

Could he recruit better at IU?  Yes

Should he be recruiting better than he is after winning 2 of the past 5?  yes

Would he become one of the top 5 coaches ever if he came to IU and won 2 more?  yes

Is Indiana the Bama of college basketball?  yes

Did I say that Wright would come to IU?  No.  

Nova is a 9 or 10.  IU could be a 10+  Fact.  

Nova has reached it's peak.  It will never be a lambo, 10+ supermodel.  Neither will be to the beloved Mark Few's Gonzaga.  That's why IU needs to find it's young psycho.  Someone said Musselman is a healthy psycho.  Well if that's true, what are we waiting on?  Him to win it all at Arkansas and never leave?

I’m sorry to say it IU is not that relevent

Listened to Rutgers coach interview, talked about how tough the league is, didn’t even mention IU.

But not to a Celtics fan

I know you're being sarcastic, and Stevens isn't going anywhere, nor should he, but he was not good in the playoffs. I don't mean the default 'we lost so it must be the coach' stuff, there are tactical things that Stevens either did wrong or didn't adjust too in both the Toronto series and the Miami series that cost the Celtics. 

I'm a Stevens fan and absolutely don't want him going anywhere, but he struggled against Nurse and Spoelstra. I'm also seeing Celtics fans getting more and more critical of him. 

His playoff record is .500

Lebron has never been a favorite, mostly around the “decision”. But I do like his approach about winning championships. Nothing is better for reputation than winning.

Seems to be good for Butler
