Beamerball Posted March 6 Report Share Posted March 6 Just now, btownqb said: Why? From my understanding, many admins (BOTs or others) still aren't thrilled with his baggage from early years. Now could they change their mind? Sure, with Dolson's help maybe even. However, at this moment in time, it seems May is the leader at the turn. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5fouls Posted March 6 Report Share Posted March 6 2 minutes ago, DC2345 said: It'll be Pearl or May. Either way I'll take it. The roster after the season may look similar to what Crean faced Year 1. In my opinion, that's too big of a job for May. It needs to be Pearl unless fans are willing to be patient for someone else to get their footing, which is a tall ask at this point.  5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if the stuff about Pearl is 100% accurate. It could be a smokescreen at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But whatever. Clearly this is all coming from somewhere-- you, DC, and Chris007 are saying the exact same things, at the same time. peegs? trilly?

I also do not think Pearl will be our guy. Same. Pearls camp is playing both IU and Louisville woes to their own agenda.

In this case, I honestly believe it is more that IU BOTs or other decision makers, don't want Pearl. Pearl wants IU. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger question is what his ability is to build a roster from scratch. That's a possibility regardless of who the new coach is. In that contest, I choose Bruce Pearl.  6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s definitely the BOT wanting to play safe and not hire someone with violations again. But be patient, since that was DC said and see how this plays out. There is likely support for Pearl, just need a few more Trustees to flip.  1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolson still has time to try and swing some money/supporters. Just as of this moment, May would be the choice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted March 6 Report Share Posted March 6 I think it’s more combo of the fear of missing out and pearls past. His past is legal now though. Why not just get may when Pearl is done? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU has screwed this up so many times. They know what needs to happen. If a coach like Pearl wanted to come and they don't make it happen then to me that says they are satisfied with mediocrity and we should all just lower expectations. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure some of the BOT are having PTSD of Sampson Fiasco, but the stuff Pearl did was minor and legal now.
