Archie on IU in NCAA Tournament

[Pryght]

Yeah, who cares... But Archie has been very complimentary of IU this year and it was interesting to watch him defend IU's tournament chances against Sean Miller. Archie thinks we will beat Wyoming, Saint Mary's, and UCLA.

Archie also think Purdue won't make it past the first weekend...

Sean's a west coast apologist. The IU fans work against IN... WTF? Credit to Archie for putting this stuff behind him and being able to be pretty damn objective. Glad he wouldn't have a problem sitting in the IU section. I'd welcome him more than the back-stabber Tyra Buss.

He knows he didn’t get the job done. He’s also not said anything negative. Pretty classy if you ask me. It just wasn’t a fit.

Archie couldn't get guys to dig deep and compete like Woodson has done. He probably knows that.

I think Archie knows he has nobody to blame but himself. Much like Mike Davis he had his chance and ultimately t couldn't handle the pressure. Sean was being an ass and just sticking up for his little brother by saying the IU fans always turn on their coach. I don't think Archie has said one bad thing about anything IU related. Again, like Mike Davis, he's been a class act for a fired IU coach. Now,. Dakich is another story.

So.....who turned on Sean? Obviously, somebody did....

I've been listening to these shows for several weeks now. It's quite obvious that Sean knows that as far as a return to college coaching, he realizes that he is box office poison, and that it maybe a very long time before he gets another high profile job, if ever.

The quickest way he gets back is if Archie gets another job, and Sean joins his staff. So Sean goes out of his way to prop up Archie's time at IU, and glosses over his deficiencies.

Having said that, I find Archie's analysis much more intriguing. He can really dissect a team's strengths and weaknesses. He won't be unemployed for very long. I wouldn't be surprised if he landed at NC State, when it comes open.
