That’s just what the roles are on the staff. Then why does most of the people think that Fife will be the one to replace Izzo if he is not the next one in line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackson Kellogs Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 Also, since Archie's philosophy doesn't work in the B10.. when are we going to start going after true big men? 7 footers! Having 6'8 forwards playing the five isn't going to cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PU and UI has a true center but not many others. Even Garza who is 6'9 doesn't play like a true center. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss the days of Cody Zeller a lot.. having that true front court presence. I see most of the top teams and they don't have true post players who had great low post moves. I guess when I think of true post players who were very good in the low post I don't think of any players in today's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustout Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 beat Illinois. 1-1 in conference - where we all thought we’d be. Then most things are forgiven. Illini is a good matchup for IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me there are a few schools who seems like they always get a lot of big guys OU and FSU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgambill Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 3 hours ago, IU Scott said: Sampson was getting out of dodge before things hit the fan. I really wouldn't call Marquette a major college job either. So you really think an established coach at a major job will leave to come here. Marquette was in the Big East when that was a major conference. Coached at a NC school and had taken them to a final 4...how much bigger does it get? If we dump a crap load of money at their feet. Sure why not?? The thing about a great coach is they know their winning will translate to any school with facilities and fertile recruiting ground. While Indiana comes with high expectations it also comes with perks that few universities can offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to be honest with you, the team is already doing both on their own time if you want the honest truth. They did when Knight was there too...at least they were in the late 90's/early 2000's when I was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it'll happen but if the team hadn't improved as much as hoped from last season, then he will probably be on the hot seat next year. And with TJD likely gone, it looks like he might not have a good enough team then to save his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmax Posted December 25, 2020 Report Share Posted December 25, 2020 I think having no NCAA tournament last year really hurts the perception of Archie. The tournament is completely unpredictable, and who knows, maybe green gets hot and we win a few games which would’ve done a lot to calm things down. As I’ve stated, I was thrilled with the hire and thought he was the perfect remedy to the defensive issues that we had. He’s also much more of a no nonsense/no bs type guy then crean was. I think it’s obviously fair to say that results so far have been disappointing. I’m hopeful we can still have a good season this year and give us something to build from. I think a lot of us, myself included, were incredibly disappointed with the Northwestern loss. Let’s just hope it wasn’t a sign of things to come.
