Of course! you make a good point!And, its current state has not in any way prevented them from bringing in a significant chunk of the McD's All-American team every year, has it now? I stand by my comment.

Easy now.Look at this year's roster. Ok look at last year's roster. Several freshmen play significant rolls at TT. One starts regularly. You should be "sold" on Beard - to the extent it matters. The basketball minds of America are completely sold on him, Look at him - its RMK 30 years ago.
His style took him dancing with every team he coached and made deep runs. The success he had at osu was more solid than anyone on any list except Donovan because he won two.I’ll take any of them except Matta. I just don’t think his back is fine. And his style is very similar to Archieball. He’s just a little better recruiter.
The point Bozich's source made was specifically about the arena. I'm glad UK's mercenaries get to adjust to the accomodations they will experience on the road in the NBA the following year, though. Good for them.Rupp Arena may not be the prettiest place but that Wildcat Lodge (or whatever it’s called) where the players live is something else entirely.
This is correct. Both lounge/locker rooms in AH and in CH were recently renovated. They are clearly top of the line. No recruit cares if the balcony seats are too high. Get AH rocking like Cameron or Phog and there you go.Bozich is full of sh1t. The locker rooms and players lounges were all recently upgraded. They're opulent. That's what will impress an 18 year old kid, not the lobby.
Hell Rupp isn’t nice at all.To be fair. Kansas and Duke really don’t have a good Arena either.
Those Dugger teams too.3A...should have clarified. We played Madison and then Gibson Southern....I played for Plainfield. Gibson Southern played the best team ball I’ve ever seen. We just had size and they were small.
They had a stretch there where they had some good groupsThose Dugger teams too.

Another guy that never gets brought up much is Altman. He's done plenty of tourney damage with 3 different schools and gone deep in the dance. Heres the opening line of his bio on Oregons site.
Dana Altman is one of only five active coaches in NCAA Division I with 23 consecutive winning seasons. He is part of an exclusive fraternity that includes Hall-of-Famers Mike Krzyzewski, Tom Izzo, Bill Self and Jim Boeheim.
Thats strong. jmho
If you didn’t pick him up at half court he would shoot it in your face! Jared Chambers was pretty good too. That gym was friggin loud!!!Brody Boyd...dude averaged like 30+ a game. Chucked it from way downtown religiously...believe he played at Iowa
We have 2 trips in that time span.Yo, Since 1990 Arkansas leads IU in Final Four trips 3-1.
AH, while not a great place to view a game in any rows above 28, is iconic. I hope it's around forever. Same can be said about Kansas, Duke, Wrigley, and Fenway.It wasn't a popular opinion then (or now, I'm sure). But, when the Simon-Skjodt family made that large donation, I thought they should've considered a down payment toward replacing AH.
I know that many consider it iconic -- and understandably so. And I know that it's sacrilege among many sports fans to even discuss razing facilities they consider sacred.
But, sentimentality aside, it's really not a great facility -- even after the recent facelift.
I'd say the chances of it being Stevens are between a pipe dream and wishful thinking. In either event, neither are happening.If the decision is made this week, then it’s pretty clear to me it’s Beilein or Fife.
If it drags on, it’s pretty clear they are waiting for their top targets to drop out. Drew, Beard etc.
Also, it’s not Steve. My guess is they already have a verbal agreement or else the donors wouldn’t pony up. I’m not forking over $10M without asking “what is the plan”?
Timing is everything with Stevens. I’m afraid it won’t work out this time either.
What other facilities besides IU‘s have you seen?Bozich is full of sh1t. The locker rooms and players lounges were all recently upgraded. They're opulent. That's what will impress an 18 year old kid, not the lobby.
Have you ever seen the facilities at any other school?This is correct. Both lounge/locker rooms in AH and in CH were recently renovated. They are clearly top of the line. recruit cares if the balcony seats are too high. Get AH rocking like Cameron or Phog and there you go.
It has been and it still is a great facility. It just does not meet YOUR expectations.It wasn't a popular opinion then (or now, I'm sure). But, when the Simon-Skjodt family made that large donation, I thought they should've considered a down payment toward replacing AH.

Are they finally changing the name?Rupp is getting a nice remodel!
We don't need some old man if we are looking to build for the future
Well, I don’t think it is. And I’m not the only one who thinks that.It has been and it still is a great facility. It just does not meet YOUR expectations.
Bozich isn’t the one who said this. He was quoting others.Bozich is full of sh1t. The locker rooms and players lounges were all recently upgraded. They're opulent. That's what will impress an 18 year old kid, not the lobby.

Those balcony seats and the court have not changed their relative positions.Musselman’s dad was in trouble for something way back whe
I have not been in assembly Hall in a long time but the balcony seats used to be awful. Too steep and too far away. On the main level some of the really high rose had obstructive seating.
You have no idea what you’re talking about.Then they're full of sh1t.
Then how does Duke do it? What, with their archaic, dinky gym?Well, I don’t think it is. And I’m not the only one who thinks that.
Its primary value is nostalgia — which is fine. But whoever spoke to Bozich had this about right. It’s not going to be all that impressive to most kids we’re recruiting...unless they’re from Indiana and have some of the sentimental equity.
Leadership created and sustained their program. Their facility became part of the charm. We have no such advantage.Then how does Duke do it? What, with their archaic, dinky gym?

you just said it. all 3 and no D.Never liked his style of play? What, good floor spacing, shooting, and efficient offense don't do it for you? Guy won 30 games two years ago and made the second weekend of the tournament in 6 out of his last 8 years at Michigan.
you just said it. all 3 and no D.
Yep. That's the group I was thinking about.
who's ken pom?Lol. Finished 2nd and 3rd in KenPom defensive efficiency his last 2 years at Michigan. You have no clue what you’re talking about.
If we hire a guy we knowingly will have to replace in five years or fewer, we’ve failed. Again.Lol. Finished 2nd and 3rd in KenPom defensive efficiency his last 2 years at Michigan. You have no clue what you’re talking about.

Nope. Time to do this correctly, for a change. Beilein, while a good coach, would be a band aid, at best. Why would you advocate such a shortsighted approach, especially since you were so slow to recognize that Miller wasn’t capable of building our program back up?Beat it.
