Hoosier0908! Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Long, long, long time lurker here. Have been on the Archie bandwagon for some time now. Even wanted IU to hire him early in Crean’s final season. Wow, have things changed. I was preaching patience for some time, but I don’t think that’s the answer. we all know it: - poor free throw shooting - poor three point shooting - recruiting was great, but beginning to slip - cannot finish games - odd rotations - built on defense, but that often is not good Year four of the same thing. What else is there to see?! The million dollar question? Who do we legitimately hire that’s better? 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 I have to agree with you. Unlike you I did not really like the hire but was going to give him a shot. Tonight totally pushed me over the top and Archie is not going to get this turned around 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 The only coach I think we might have a shot with who would be considered a top coach would be Beard at TT. I have heard guys on TV says he loves Texas and had no desire to leave the state 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdhoosier Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) I don’t think he will or he should be fired after this season. ....Unless the AD has some unicorn that farts perfume scented rainbows up his sleeve. I’d rather take one more season with CAM then go through another coaching search and get denied by 4 of the top 5 people on our list. And by farting unicorn I mean the poaching of a power 5 coach with an impressive resume. The Cleveland State coach ain’t going to do it.

Hoosier0908! Posted January 15, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 There-in lies our problem. We take a chance on another mid-major coach, that appears to be up-and-coming. Do we capture lighting in a bottle? Or, is it fools gold similar to Archie? I think Archie gets year five, but if (when) TJD leaves, he doesn’t have a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, Archie gets year five because there isn’t a glaring option that’s better, not because he deserves more time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Well the last time I emailed the AD about a coaching change Glass fired Cream the next week. Maybe I should think about another email LOL! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTrojan88 Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Hire someone that values defense, ball movement and shooting. This coach either doesn’t think these things are important or he doesn’t know how to coach them. Nothing has changed from year 1 thru year 4. The same things that got us beat back then are getting us beat now. Total failure and time to move on.

Parakeet Jones Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 (edited) Let me first of all say, I think he is back next year. But I’m curious, how bad would it have to get to change that. 6-14 in B1G? 5-15? I don’t think either of those happen, but I still wonder what the limit is for this year.

However if one of Sam Story's, I'm sorry Coach Sam Story's billionaire friends wants to literally buy him, I'm ok with that. @CoachSS. Anyone willing to pay?

tdhoosier Posted January 15, 2021 Report Share Posted January 15, 2021 Let’s get Calbert Cheney and steal Phil Martelli way from Michigan. And maybe get the ghost of Rick Majerus for our 3rd assistant. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
