    The Bob Knight Coaching Tree

    Well he was responding to this statement: "Nobody that played for knight has turned out to be a good coach. Alford is probably the best of the bunch."

    Does Dolson Survive This?

    That may what fans want, but I haven't seen much in the last 30 years that would indicate that the university believes it's the AD's most important job.

    Crean goes off on teams stupidly declining NIT bids…

    From the '94/'95 season to today, the best 5 year stretch for IU Basketball was '11/'12 to '15/16. Most wins. 3 Sweet 16s, 2 Big 10 championships. Kind of sad, compared to the 25 seasons before that. But the data doesn't lie. That was the best 5 year run since OJ took a ride in the Bronco.

    Doesn't he live in Sarasota on a golf course?

    Zero commitments on Mar 8!?

    Was that the Ewing Jr / Grey-Ashley class? Underwhelming certainly. There are 28 offers out in the 2025 class and one has already committed to Georgia. What are the odds that any of those wind up at IU and what coach will they be playing for?

    In the past 10 years Indiana is 193-135, 94-96

    30 years of average and yet some knucklehead was arguing earlier this year on this forum that IU was still a "blue blood." Between this and Woodson going 0-31 on recruits, I don't know what's more depressing. And then someone pointed out to me that Roger Maris' 61 home run season is closer in...

    Would 20-14 get us dancing?

    He thinks Dean Wormer is running the NCAA.

    Retire the ugly black unis

    I still have bad memories from the 49-7 loss that day. Took my friend who was a Kentucky fan and he tormented me for years.

    They gave me flashbacks to this infamous disaster:

    Will Woodson be given his walking papers at season’s end?…..

    1) No, he will get 1 more season. 2) No, for a variety of reasons. BTW, he would need to average 25 wins per season for 21 years to catch Coach K. That would make him 80. Do you think he can average that well into his 70s?

    Steve Alford

    He's been to a Final 4, 2 Sweet 16s, and won the conference championship. And even with this off year has a .733 winning percentage compared to Steve's .633. So, yes. HUGE improvement over Alford.

    Steve Alford

    Only UCLA coach since Larry Brown not to win at least one Pac 10/12 championship, despite all that 5-star talent 3rd worst winning % since Wooden retired. Career losing record in the Big 10 over 8 seasons. I'm just not seeing it. Someone here said Indiana was his perfect fit. I think New...

    Realistic coaching list….

    Sorry, but that's not how it went down. Davis decided to quit and then the season went sideways. The Penn State game was nearly two weeks AFTER Davis informed President Herbert he wanted to quit. He had already planned to quit BEFORE the season went off the rails. At the time of the initial...

    Realistic coaching list….

    Well, he didn't. But people keep repeating that myth. Davis resigned. And he wasn't forced out.

    0 made 3s plus 10 missed FTs plus Rebounds

    I almost spit out my drink when they said during the game that IU hasn't ranked in the top 100 in 3-point attempts for 7 years! The entire tenures of Miller and Woodson.

    Pretty bad when the team is losing Don Fischer!

    You and your cousin have a weird memory. Mike Davis was not fired. He was not forced to resign because of the losing streak. He had already planned to quit BEFORE the season went off the rails. At the time of the initial discussion with the University President, IU was still ranked 22nd, still...

    UConn dominated entire tournament

    It wouldn't have been up to the school. If Sampson had stayed, they still would have lost 2 scholarships because the APR rate had dipped so low. From the HT: "Indiana University will give up two basketball scholarships for the upcoming season in anticipation of penalties related to the NCAA’s...

    Tony Bennett

    In the last 10 years, he's won 6 ACC Championships, 2 ACC Tournament Championships, 1 National Championship, 1 Elite Eight, 1 Sweet 16, 8 NCAA Tournament Bids (plus lock in the canceled COVID year), and an NIT bid. Plus multiple ACC & National Coach of the year awards. IU fans would trade our...

    We should’ve never fired Crean

    There's some bizarre revisionist history going on in this thread. IU did not fire Mike Davis. Davis resigned. And he wasn't forced out. He met with President Herbert before the UCONN game when the team's record was 13-5 (5-3 in the Big Ten) to discuss his departure. They met later to finalize...
