wait until the new coaching hammer drops
given the history it's difficult to be optimistic
i am glad this era is finally over

you think this is bad
- Thread starter dr.jb
- Start date
Missed 7 of the last 9 NCAA Tournaments, it's hard to imagine it getting much worse.
Don't screw the pooch, Dolson. We need a homerun hire...

Brownell would be a very disappointing and questionable hire
You have to be optimistic that Dolson strikes gold again. Every positive vibe directed towards Dolson is needed.
i'm not sure.......if it was up to scott
we would have had this disussion last yr
and not be sitting out again
Give Brownell a chance Idon't want McCollum but if he is hired he can prove me wrong.
I hope and believe Buckner is not involved in this decision.
Be patient grasshopper. Let's wait and see what the next few days have in store for us.
We know what Brownell has done no reason to think he’ll be substantially different at IU
At the end of the selection show Clark Kellogg picked Clemson to make his Final Four and that would be the only silver lining if we hire him and that happens.
Nah… today … this is our darkest day. I’ve got my optimism at all time high because we’re actually going to hire a real college basketball coach.
WTF is it with Brownell support here? The guy has a 62% winning percentage, just finished season 18 as a head coach with the last 15 at Clemson and he has never coached a conference champion, only twice have his teams finished with single digit losses and has only coached 5 NCAA Tournament teams counting this one. He is the coaching equivalent of "meh" even for a mid-pack program with realistic expectations and aspirations. Even if this Clemson team makes a run, what about the preceeding 17 years? I'm afraid that dog won't hunt.
He's Woodson if Woodson had a long leash.
Brownell may not even be a candidate. He certainly wouldn't be if I was AD.

I have a long list that doesn't include Brad Brownell and his 2 or 3 decent seasons.
Hey id be fine with that! Hes nuts but obviously can coach! Better than some names floating around out there!
This is why we are Indiana - start pumping up a guy because podcasters say something. If BB is the hire we might as well hire Alford. Geez
What about that guy at Houston? He really built up that place. Could he work at IU? JK
He’s pretty old now too bad we didn’t hire him when he was younger.
We need the resident VanPastor here to go on a hunger strike and start up a 24/7 prayer chain. He knows that it’s “go time.”
Prayers needed.
Brownell top recruits were 3 to 4 star 90-100 top players most are 3 stars or worse. I think with NIL and access to high 4 star 5 star talent he could go from a good coach to a really good coach. His offensive efficiency is #34 which is really good by the way Drake is 43 and Indiana was 152. They also shoot more threes then Drake and Indiana ranking #164 Drake #338 and Indiana #292. Defense efficiency Clemson #28 Drake #26 and Indiana #111. To say Brownell is Woodson is stupid the guy can coach.
Look at his results at Clemson over his 15 years there. 8 of 15 seasons with 17 wins or fewer. 2 games over .500 in league play coming into his 15th season. Missed the tourney 9 seasons. His results are very Woodson-like.
I must be a bit of a 'true fan' because no matter who we hire, I'll stay a fan.
Real glad Coach Woodson is leaving though. I loved him as a kid as a player, and had hoped his hire would work. But... 'Glory days. Well they'll pass you by!'
Hire somebody who can win the B1G tournament... To me that's as shameful a mark as any, because some committee doesn't determine your entry or seed. We are so poor as a program.
Time to right the ship!
