I hate these kinds of rumors because they are usually total BS and never said by Pearl this year.Of coure he would but we are too dumb to hire him.
Rumor: Bruce Pearl would take Indiana job 'today without any reservation'
Bruce Pearl would take the Indiana job "today without any reservation" if Mike Woodson were to be let go and the Hoosiers were to extend an offer to the formerflywareagle.com
Most incompetent administration in college sports history. Would kill it here but no he once had a recruit over to his house for an unsanctioned barbecue. Can't have that. Better to hire the mid major of the month so we can do this all over again in 3-4 years. These people are complete idiots.Of coure he would but we are too dumb to hire him.

I am sorry, but your statement is so over the top that I can't let it go. Basketball is king but administration has more to worry about than just the basketball team. We don't even know if we are truly even considering a new coach yet. The 24/7 sports management under Dolson and Glass have overall been doing better. I have been around for over 50 years and the real travesty with IU sports is the fact that we had no plan or administration to manage sports for most of the years. The fact that it took Greenspan to start putting together facilities plan and for others to follow through on it is the real travesty.
you're absolutely right. under RMK we had such a great BB program that was all that most people ( at least those in authority ) seemed to care about. so many missed opportunities.
a nice wrestling facility or a perennial top 20 basketball team, most people would tell the men in tights that they can grapple with each other outdoors.
I am not judging that I am was responding to Dolson and administration. That Volleyball-Wrestling Facility has upgraded both recruiting and attendance. The basketball locker room was upgraded and is really nice and up to date. Cook hall was added during the Greenspan, Glass and Dolson era. The women's locker room was upgraded this past season. The women's basketball team is a top 20 team again and averaged over 10,000 fans a game. Only the third time in Big Ten history that a women's program has averaged over 10000 fans. I know you might not care but that ranks 5th or 6th in the nation.
No chance. In any case, it would probably take a contract that specifically states Bruce's son would would take over when he retires ... and we all know how well the coach-in-waiting (supposedly) thing worked last time.
This is good stuff, but it’s mostly paid for by the big TV contracts delivered by the B1G. Our competitors are doing similar upgrades.
I bet you'd feel differently if it was Rick flair vs hulk hogan. Or maybe rowdy roddie taking on stone cold. Now that's real rasslin!
Whatever they decide to do it will need to happen pretty quick after the season ends. The portal starts right away and you really cannot sit around for a month deciding if you are going to fire woodson or not. It needs to happen within a week of the last game.
I dunno, man. I think Dolson needs to have a big fish lined up in order to justify canning MW to the BoT and donors.
Of coure he would but we are too dumb to hire him.

Could still happen. Dolson wants him and Pearl badly wants the job. But Dolson needs the BOT approval. The thinking/rumor is Buckner will block Dolson's #1 choice out of spite for firing his buddy. We'll likely get Dusty.
not me
You’re more clueless than I thought if you think basketball generates more money than football.
So it pays to suck then. Makes sense for Iu to keep sucking then I guess
Remember he is a ND Football fan so in his world BB is the moneymaker at IU
We are not killing it any more than we have the past 20 years or so. They still sell all if not all-season tickets and get the Big Ten revenue so in the scheme of big business that college sports is today us being really good only drive so much. Not like it was. Football as bad as it has been more important for cash flow than basketball in today's world. IU was just known for basketball with the Knight years and two additional national championships prior to that. Bad basketball is not fun, but it is not the cash cow you think it is because it also has high expenses.
assume you like to put the tights on with your buddies, sorry I offended you.
Not as good as if we were paying a couple mil a year less and without a buyout and still sucking.
Indiana football generates about 60M per year. They payout around 32M, so a profit of approx. 28M. Basktball generates 26M while paying 16M for a 10M profit.
Big $$ sports deserve the attention and $$ they get, but that’s no reason to shit on the talents of other athletes that pour their blood, sweat, and tears into sports you’re too ignorant to try to understand
