Hire beard get it over with.
Makes too much sense. Will be Brownell or Turgeon most likely.
I got faith in Scott. Looks like he has total control here. Love it.
Goodman, Doyle, Dakich are all click bait sellers. Don’t listen to those Kardashians.
Forgot about Kent. That dude is at the top. Holy hell I didn’t know him till this year, NUTCASE
Only one on that list I thought was much of a possibility. A couple I didn't want.
There's plenty of fine coaches in the profession. We'll get a good one.
Nothing wrong with taking a flyer on a guy like McCollum if he's interested, maybe Vandy's guy if he's interested. We took a flyer on Woodson. Now maybe we'll take a flyer on someone who has been, you know, coaching college basketball.

They would be maybe one to two wins better than Woodson at best. If they can attract the same level of talent.
Beard would take the program to another level IMO.
Well that’s not really fair, is it? We certainly rail on the poor hires so we need to give credit where it’s due. And it’s definitely due for the Cig hire.
He hasn’t hired his basketball coach yet. Probably a good idea to at least wait and see who it is. Then to also see the product on the floor.
Beard should be our next coach !!!!!!!
Hire this guy or we are back here in 3-5 years. Guaranteed.
Did you just bring rationale to these proceedings? How dare you!
A couple guys we probably weren't after might have withdrawn their name from consideration.

At this point, if it’s not Beard, it’s going to be a bust.
Unless there is some unknown elite candidate who emerges late in the game a la Cignetti.
This is all nonsense, folks. Do you really think Dolson is on Option Q right now? Please. I wouldn't be surprised at all if he gets the guy he wanted all along.
I think Dolson will have to be solid in his recruitment of Beard too. I could see quite a few other options being open to him as well this off season.
I have major Beard fatigue, but just one more thing: He's not Basketball Jesus. Yes, he's a very good coach who would likely fit well at IU ... but he's not the second-coming of Knight. Go compare his coaching career to others mentioned the last month. Once you do, you'll find CB's record doesn't tower above the others.
All that said, yes, Beard would be a very good/great hire and, if that's Dolson's guy, I'm all for it. But he's not the only diamond in the mine.

Or unless Dolson identifies the right coach for IU, whether that coach is an “elite candidate” or not.
With NIL $$ we could probably land any of about 20 coaches and be successful. Don’t forget we’ve been saddled with the most inept coach possibly in the history of power conference bball
His source - Some guy at the end of the bar at the 3rd st B-Dubs who is on his 8th coors light with wing sauce on both ear lobes.
Outside Stevens…the best candidates weren’t mentioned. So what’s the big deal even is he is right?
McCasland, McCollum, Beard. Those are the best 3 candidates. Honestly in no particular order. All 3 have their pros and cons. All 3 would he home runs.

Yep. What I've always said, don't get locked in on a target too early and cast a wide net, interview a lot of folks and hire the guy that convinces you he will do the job. I think Beard would do great and is a great fit. If we hire him, that's good in my book because they researched him and got a clean bill of health, if not, then they found someone better like McCasland or McCollum.
