Just watched the end of Iowa State and BYU. I was leaning towards TJ but during the period before the last overtime and during all the time outs he was not involved in calling plays or instructing players. It was always the assistant coach. Not sure about that.
 
Sorry Kyser, I didn’t see your post before I put mine in after yours. I totally agree with you. I don’t just want a coach who knows basketball. I want a coach who is going to get his players to WANT to work hard and win. Players who are focused because of their coach.
Drew’s players generally play very hard for him. For what it’s worth.

I wouldn’t love the hire. But he could probably be successful at IU.

Before Woody we went through the Drew discussion and the consensus was that with his strong religious beliefs he would never leave Waco/Baylor. This time around that has been mostly absent from the discussion. It’s neither here nor there but I always thought Sampson has a real talent for motivating his players and forming a cohesive team. I have seen videos from Houston and I was ready to work my buttt off just listening to him.
