His Dad hated Knight and IU and we had just fired his sister. He also never wanted a pressure cooker gig.
Yep. Part of IU lore.
Yeah sure. VA has plenty. Matter of fact one signed a deal with McDonald’s. The state has very favorable NIL laws unlike our dumb Indiana legislators. The state needs to get with it.
What Trilly said makes sense. He wanted his assistant to get the job so bolted right at the last minute when they'd have no other choice.
I’m glad he has no health issues. I sure do agree with the “changing landscape” reason.
I think dad was at Stevens Point in Wisconsin and his record brought some national attention.
Ironically, Tony's dad coached at Wisconsin and Bo Ryan did the exact same thing at Wisconsin for Greg Gard to get the job.
Diakite with that incredible shot to send it to OT. One of the greatest games I’ve ever seen.
He was, but what really brought him national attention was the run he had with UW-Green Bay.
His dad was one of the pioneers of the ol' pack line defense that should never be spoken of here.
PU was on house money in that game after Tenn got rear ended at the end of the game prior.
He won 6 ACC titles in 14 seasons....in a conference with K and Roy Williams. For a program that had only one ACC title the 70 some years prior, that's pretty legendary.
He didn't make a bad choice with UVA. Won the ACC a few times and a national title. I doubt he would've done as well at IU, especially a national title.
Not sure at UVA gave him anything that IU couldn’t. His style would have be great for the B1G.
