Our annual coaching wish list thread…

Brad Stevens
Nate Oats
PJ Otzelberger
Ben McCollum
Chris Beard

They should pay Alabama the buyout and get Oats to the Big Ten and IU, where he belongs. It’s not complicated, it’s just costly.
 
Pace and style don’t matter as long as you win . When IU hired Bobby many people complained that his style would not work in the Big 10 . 25 years later and 3 National Championships later , he is considered as a legend . Dolson did a great job hiring a football coach , so I hope he does as well in hiring our next basketball coach . Also like in coach Cigs case , it might be someone none of us have thought about , or mentioned on here .
Things have changed a lot in 25 years though. I know winning of course is MOST important, but in this day and age where everyone thinks they are going to the NBA, players expect a certain style to showcase their skills. I think they are more apt to want a program with a fast paced offense.
 
It's likely that some of the names on the short list aren't going to be available before the portal opens:
  • Selection Sunday: Sunday, March 16
  • First Four: March 18-19
  • First round: March 20-21
  • Second round: March 22-23
  • Sweet 16: March 27-28
  • Elite Eight: March 29-30
It’s going to be a very long almost two months waiting and speculating!
