Willing. They aren’t going big. I guess it depends what classifies as big. 3-4 million. Not 6-8. Now Louisville is supposedly going all in.

Really Billy Donovan might be fired after the season. Jay Wright is not coaching. Bruce Pearl wants the job loves Indiana. Jamie Dixion is a great coach and would leave TCU for Indiana. I still think Dusty May stays and waits for IU. The only longshot is Mark Few.
I count, six names who would never come here, one who would never be asked, three who would be uninspiring, and one who I'd rather shoot myself in the face before seeing here. I'll let you sort them out.
Billy Donovan is rich. If he wanted to coach in college he'd be coaching in college. If Jay Wright wanted to coach, he'd still be at Villanova.
Bruce Pearl wants things we can't give him. Jamie Dixon's results would get him fired here and he knows it. Mark Few already said no. Tony Bennett still has a sister.
You are delusional.
If Billy Donovan ever came back to the c ollege game he'd end up somewhere like Kentucky. Oh hell, he'd end up at Kentucky.
IU wouldn't be on his top 25 landing spots.
Do you know who else isn’t going anywhere over the next 12 months? Mike Woodson.
All this is pointless. Unfortunately

Beard is humbled (he blew it at his dream job, Texas) and hungry. I'd have to look him in the eye, but man I'd be over the moon to have him.

That's not what I said. But hey, keep dreaming. Coach K isn't coaching, let's hit him up.
beard would concern me, as if there's more than anything other than light smoke lingering from that one incident, could be our Billy Clyde and if we're taking that kind of risk, hell Huggy Bear, hof coach, hot head, same thing. Marshall same thing
Donovan had a nice run at OKC. And 2 of his best players on the Bulls have been injured. He might get fired, but he would get another NBA job quickly. Jay Wright has said very recently that he is done coaching. Neither of these guys are coming to this shit show.
How do you know Pearl or Dixon would leave for IU?
Barnes is 69 years old.
Few spent his entire career out west.
Are people GENUINELY this dumb?
Dusty just lost to 5-13 Temple. I’m not going to lose sleep if he ends up at OSU. They’ve had a LOT of head scratchers this season.
isu guy, it has to be, meant to be. he'd have it rocking in 3 years guaranteed almost. it wouldn't be the first time a former isu coach did quite well, you know?
Beard would take the IU job, and we should hire him. He’s young, smart, and knows how to recruit and coach. What a concept. Mac n Cheese would certainly go nuts… another plus.
Mick Cronin’s another guy I’d welcome. He’s forgotten more about coaching in college than Woody will ever learn. Cincy roots, bull dog mindset.
Donavon isn’t going anywhere other than to his new home in FL after his Bulls gig is done. Dude’s made huge money in the NBA, and he’s ready to chill and be a talking head for ESPN, TBS, Fox, etc. (BTW… his house is 10 mins from me and spectacular; across the road from Steve Spurrier and Bob Stoops’s homes). He’s got his next steps ready to roll, and it doesn’t include IU.

Michigan coaching candidates: Dusty May, Jamie Dixon, Brian Dutcher among options to replace Juwan Howard
Michigan has a strong candidate pool, which could include a former coach with ties to the Fab Five

Yea sure he turn down Indiana and stay at TCU.
And Pearl is 64 so. We don't need to build a program we gave NIL and Woodson at 66 is buying players I'm sure any good coach could easily do what Woodson is doing. So having a young coach really don't matter it dont take 4 years to build programs anymore.
I don't know if any but there all viable candidates. Donovan has had interest before and if the Bulls miss playoffs he might be done maybe he gets another nba job maybe Indiana offers him 8 million a year to coach who knows? Bruce Pearl loves Indiana plus his son is coach in waiting at Auburn been there for 10 years. Jay Wright longshot Jamie Dixion is getting interest from Michigan so if he entertains them Indiana is a way better job.
You shot down everybody obviously you think Indiana should go after mid major coaches.
I think that's who we will get. I'm fine with that if next year is bad. But the suggestion that we will just go out and get Jay Wright or Mark Few is insane.
Well, if he’s on ONE LIST from some guy no one has ever heard of, then chalk it up!Michigan coaching candidates: Dusty May, Jamie Dixon, Brian Dutcher among options to replace Juwan Howard

Hopefully one day you look him straight in the eye.

He's lost 12 games or more 10 seasons in a row. You'd be demanding to fire him after year 2.Michigan coaching candidates: Dusty May, Jamie Dixon, Brian Dutcher among options to replace Juwan Howard

Any coach is possible…. If the bank account is large enough.
Just depends if we want to add another Trillion the the defecit.
Since the rest of the world is all talking about this A.I. or ChatGPT…. Why not just let Woody go and then setup a laptop with a camera at the end of the scorers table to watch the game, and have it tell the assistant coaches what to say to the players during timeouts.
Save the school millions of dollars and probably do better than anyone we would be thinking of hiring.
That’s sarcasm folks…. For the ones that think I’m serious.

Nobody is coming because we have a coach for next season. End of story.
There are no home run hires out there now. Grasshopper needs to be patient, knowing when to spit tobacco and when to jump. He sits quietly until the storm clouds pass.
