Calvert

JFC. It’s this bullshit line of thinking put Sleepy Mike in charge. The only way to have Calbert coach the team is to fire Woodson once this years record is too bad to make the tournament. Then Calbert could finish the year and IU could hop on the coach carrousel first.

Is he on the short list at any other P4 schools? The answer will tell you what you need to know.
 
Nope. Top 5 IU all time legend, but this is not an entry level job. Hire a proven winner who can deliver on expectations to compete every year for a title the way Duke, Kentucky, MSU, Gonzaga, Kansas and UNC do. Don’t settle or make an emotional hiring decision - IU has done this twice with Davis and Woody.
 
As an Evansville guy who has been acquainted with Calbert since he was in HS, he’s the person you’d think he is.

But, as genuinely great a person as he is and as great a player as he was, I don’t think he has the temperament to be a successful head coach.
I’m from Evansville too.. He’s always been a class act.
 
You watched him on TV and don't know jack shit about him.
I’ve watched him on tv, watched him play his entire college career, many of those in person, met him twice, have read as much as anyone else about him, my cousin attended HS with him at Harrison in Evansville and guess what ass-hat? Van is spot on
