at some point, its pro sports, using colleges names, dont begrudge a kid for making money, but what i heard tonight , its over
jai lucas reneau and agents
- Thread starter kurt cloverdales
- Start date
MR has been here three years
MR’s coach is leaving
MR is from Miami
Miami just hired a new coach and I assume will back him with a ton of NIL
I will be zero surprised if he leaves (it would be more surprising if he stayed in Bloomington for a fourth year)
What’s the latest on who the next coach will be Kurt??
Huh?
Where you been?
Schools have nothing to do with this anymore. It’s not pro sports using a college name. In pro sports there are rules and guardrails.
I said it before:
Get rid of the name of the school on the uniform. Each player should have a jersey that looks like it’s from NASCAR. Each patch should vary in size for the percentage of ownership that the sponsor has in that player.
It's time for a culture shift, I'd be fine with everyone leaving.
Maybe Leal can get his 6th year and third coach 🤞🏽It's time for a culture shift, I'd be fine with everyone leaving.
I am all for second chances. For instance Coach Hart who used to be at Linton/Stockton was fired for drinking and driving. He is now the coach at Cloverdale. I would say Beard should get another shot. He paid a big price for doing what he did. He lost his dream job at Texas.
He's the Head Coach at Ole Miss making $5M per year. Regardless if he gets the IU job, he got a second chance/another shot already.
Good point,though Ole Miss is not on the same level as IU
He has stayed out of trouble and won there.
I don't care if none of that was the case. Reneau is terrible. Won't bother me a bit when he goes.
Reneau is not terrible, he plays for a terrible coach. Terrible players do not score 1000 points in less than 3 years in the Big 10.
He would be a big loss, the new coach should throw the NIL bank at him as he would be a great cornerstone to work around next year. Goode is another, if granted another year he has to be a Hoosier.
If I'm the new coach...I have in depth meetings with all the current players...within a day or two of being announced the head coach. I have my "people" put together "lowlight" tapes of the things they've shown that wouldn't jive with my program. And then some "highlight" tapes of how to play the right way, or how I'd want them to play. Those would include players from my own teams in the past, players they've played against, AND most importantly, the moments when they did do those things correctly themselves.
I would tell them that if they decide they want to come back to IU...as soon as they make that decision, I'm going to be on them basically every single day to become a version of those good highlights, and to be that way all day, every day. Through that whole process the new coach would lose some guys probably...which is fine, the guys you lose from that approach aren't guys you want anyways. It would also give the new coach a pretty decent vibe of how they'd handle and react to being coached hard, and maybe the new coach would decide a couple more aren't guys he wants. I would guess though they'd realize there are a couple they'd love to have come back, and that 1 or 2 would be more than open to their approach.
I don't think any of us have any clue where our current players would fall in all this.
