Top 5 Candidates to replace CAM.

1. Stevens/Donovan $10 mil offer

lol . . . an NBA coach is gonna leave the league to come work for a university that won't back the coach they have for more than two years?


Sure, Dollar Bill is the answer, right?Um . . . nope


3. Wright

Why would a Philly guy at a Philly school leave for here - same as #1?

4. Bennett

Psst . . . he coaches the packline, too. And took 3 years at his current job to get to the tournament. And was the coach of the 1st #1 seed - make that the TOP SEED of the tournament - to lose to a #16 seed. Plus previous administrations treated his sister like shit. You gonna pay him $10 mil, too?

You’ve pretty much been dead wrong on everything you’ve ever said on here. So that makes me feel good.
 
Those of us who know basketball identified these issues a long time ago.

Ok - CDK, let's try this again.

What are the issues you identified? Please give specific examples of said issues that came from today's game, along with what SHOULD have been done,

EDIT: still waiting @fpeaugh

Bennett can't even see Archie in the rearview mirror in terms of coaching ability. I don't get the hate for Bennett (he's the guy I wanted) he wins the ACC every year at Virginia of all places. They are always a top seed, and he'll break through in the tournament eventually, he has been to an elite 8 already.

I don't hate Bennett; in fact, if we do move on from Archie I'd love to have him here.

But if we do it as @fpeaugh wants and can him withiout giving him time to try to succeed, you think Bennett won't notice? Along with the fact how IU forced out Kathi back in '05? Bennett has built a pretty solid program at UVA and - given how fpeaugh and his cronies want to operate - likely isn't heading to B-town anytime soon.
 
LOL! you must be on some good stuff if you think any of those well established coaches will come here if we fired Archie after two years. If there was a coaching change this year we would be lucky to get Brad Brownell from Clemson
Yup I’m sure all of those elite coaches would be scared off by high expectations.

Why would he leave UVA for this fan base because he can accomplish everything at UVA that he can at IU. He has a great job at UVA that he has proven where he can win the best conference in the country and get a #1 seed. So what could he do at IU that he can't at UVA. Also for some of you who wants us to be like Duke or UK and recruit alot of one and done then Bennett would not be your guy.

I did not say they were scared but why leave there stable job for this one where you would be fired after two years. Those coaches have proven that they can win where they are at and could do everything at those jobs that theu could do at IU
 
Scott of all the good candidates on this board I consider you dead last on this board when it comes to basketball knowledge and realism. That’s saying a lot.
pot calling the kettle black because no one on here cares for you at all and knows that you have no knowledge of the game. Just because you said that you use to have season tickets don't mean you know the game.
 
Then why aren’t they? You think they’re taking less as a donation?
Well when IU comes calling they would up there deal to keep them. You don't think KU would up there ffer to Self if someone would come calling for self. You don't think the Celtics or thunder could not afford to pay more than what IU can. Some of you guys live in fantasy land and still thinks that IU has this great prestige and anyone would just be willing to come coach at IU. You always bring up UK but Donovan turned them down twice so why would he even look at IU. It took UNC three times to finally get Roy Williams and the only reason he left KU was that Smith wanted him to finally come home.
 
Don’t need it. Just need to use some of that $60 mil/year on athletics.

It’s time for IU fans to boycott everything. Force their hand.
So do it including posting on message boards. I feel some of you take college sports way to seriously and your identity is based n how your favorite sports team does.
