she so wrong

[Kyser123]

Seems doubtful, but again, I, nor you, know what happened and as I've gotten older I've learned not to entirely rule things out. It wouldn't be unusual in a bureaucracy to feel like you have tacit approval to move forward, do so, then have the superior, maybe having gotten input from others or cold feet, to retract that approval. I know you have things constructed so completely in your head as to what's happened here, but as I've pointed out and challenged you, you really don't know beans about what happened and are just guessing and selling it as fact.

Probably involved Buckner. Can’t fire his buddy and then bring in Beard. Buckner and his booster buddies. Same ingredients as the previous recipes that cause us to suck.

There are plenty of good churches...don't let a bad one ruin it for you.

Power and Politics are issues in many churches. Hypocrites in leadership might be the thing I most despise.

Marred in mediocrity that is the IU way. I love the Coach Cig references, Dolson took a flyer on a guy who it looks as if no one else really wanted and it paid off. Hindsight is 20/20 and the hire looks like a home run, if it went the other way no one would care. Dolson was basically in a no loose situation, no pressure with the football hire.

IU basketball is different this is an opportunity to bring in a coach that puts fear into the rest of the Big 10 and like the last two times we will fail to complete the mission. If it is Whitten than nixed it then screw her I hope her entire tenure at IU is full of piss poor men’s basketball. She is well on her way with Woody the last 4 years.

No worries, we have it on good authority from IUN and Zeke that there are tons of good candidates out there.

They were never going to announce anything while the season is still going.

There are plenty of good candidates. And nearly all of them are coaching college teams right now. Just like our current coach is.

When you have people doing the hiring that shouldn’t be involved or have limited involvement then you’re going to be mediocre.

If the Kent Sterling video is accurate and IU already has their guy, then it's pretty safe to assume Dolson did all of the back channeling before announcing Woodson's retirement and is way ahead on the media. If that's the case, all of these "sources" and "insiders" are just made up theories and we won't hear any real, accurate news until after our season ends and our targets season ends. Those that are in the know don't talk

When did Kent say they have their guy? Can you link it? I listen to his YT post everyday but not his radio broadcasts.

whiten killed beard

I hope everyone says no now and they have to come back to Beard

I hope everyone says no now and they have to come back to Beard

Why? If they did that Beard should tell them to stick it.

Did you mean to say “hiring” or did you mean to say “hiring and management of the program “?

So which is the smoke screen: Dusty, Chris, Brad, Rick or TJ? I'm not saying we can't or won't hit a home run, although you generally don't get 5-6 strikes to do it, I'm saying there aren't a ton of realistic options out there and it's hard to find the match.

Plus, the thing I really liked about Beard is that he supposedly really wanted the job, and we wouldn't have had to sell him. I think that makes a difference, especially early.
