iuthruandthru Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) Briles cleared of all charges today. Exactly the type of coach IU needs from a football perspective but unfortunately the baggage likely too big for IU to give him a chance. Thoughts? Edit: Noticed it was one case not sure if there are more pending still or not. Edited October 20, 2023 by iuthruandthru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 With the history of Kevin Wilson’s firing, I would say the chance of IU pursuing Briles would be slim to none Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thirdgenhoosier Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) I would have no issues with hiring him. Someone will hire him. Edited October 20, 2023 by thirdgenhoosier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iuthruandthru Posted October 20, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 Like I mentioned in the last post game thread I just think IU needs a coach with some baggage that would come here and make an impact. Also I think a lot of people thought Mack Brown was too old for UNC and that seems to have worked. Urban Meyer is not happening but another example. Someone is going to hire him IMO if he still wants to coach and they show the money. If not them trying to think of any other potentially last run or baggage coaches coaches that could work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeking6 Posted October 20, 2023 Report Share Posted October 20, 2023 I try to be consistent most of the time in the fact that I want to make comments about new hires until after the season. With that said....Briles will be a great hire for some P5 school who needs a shot in the arm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgambill Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 Well we still have all next year to go. If it gets worse I imagine no one is off the table…but nothing is happening until that payoff drops in December of 2024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuthruandthru Posted October 21, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 If they lose the rest of the year my money is on him getting fired, buyout be damned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parakeet Jones Posted October 21, 2023 Report Share Posted October 21, 2023 If he has been cleared, I’d be fine with it. I doubt IU would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
