    Usually dont care what Dan says, but am curious today.  Unfortunately, I cant listen at work, so if you dont mind sharing some nuggets as they happen, I would appreciate it.

    I know Dakich had been the biggest cheerleader for years that we needed to hire an IU guy but I think it's pretty clear that he didn't just want an IU guy.  He wanted Alford.

    Everybody acts like the big problem with Sampson was just phone calls but most people it is easy more than that.  I don't want pimps and drug dealers playing for IU and that was the kind of kids Sampson brought into IU.  Also brought in kids who didn't care about going to class and passing classes. It is also has to do with Sampson disregard for the rules that he had already broken in the past.

    Has he brought in players like that at Oklahoma or Houston?  As I remember when he was first hired he brought in Lance Stemler and Mike White, both good guys.

    My theory on the next season is that he knew had 2 of top 10 players in college basketball for 1 season only, DJ and EJ, and he wanted to go for it all and that meant surrounding them with all the talent he could find, character issues included.  Point is that I don't think that would've continued.
