Done and Done. Hire CDD So, the day after FCAM got fired, I tuned into the Dakich radio show for two segments (that's all I could stand). In between insulting and hanging up on anyone who didn't completely agree with him, and being kind of giddy that FCAM got fired because it validated his opinion that he wasn't the right guy, he went on this weird rant about how message boards like this one used initials/acronyms for coaches and how he didn't understand it at all. So, I guess if he was hired, we would have to use his full name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU878176 Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 I’m confused? Hire him for what? Concession stand attendant, popcorn popper (important job at the hall), maintenance, ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Concession stand attendant, popcorn popper (important job at the hall), maintenance, ? Seriously, he could be the next big thing at IU. He knows basketball. He only trolls us because he wants so badly to be us. Give him the chance. Let him lead the way. he has the street cred now as a well informed and knowledgeable former coach / announcer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addictedtoIU Posted March 22, 2021 Report Share Posted March 22, 2021 Other than IU can possibly save a lot of money, I don't see any merit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackson Kellogs Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 He would coach better than what we have had the last four years.. and I guarantee you he would get shooters to IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdhoosier Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 I know the post is a joke, but I’m not sure DD can back into coaching because he’s probably burnt so many bridges. He always seems to get into online spats with player’s families. All an opposing coach needs to recruit against him is his twitter feed and to ask recruit’s families: you want your kid to play for this clown?

Fundamentals Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 I love the idea. First, his radio show would cease. Secondly, his coaching “prowess” would be on full display for everyone to see. Third, we could do away with the utter meaninglessness of getting an “IU guy.” All in one quick 2-3 year experiment. Then, the hiring filter would be solely focused on qualifications and chops for the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
