We hired a first time coach from the staff of a coach that got fired. Said first time coach won a few games in the losers tournament last season and gets a job. Disgusting

This is the result

The right hire is a crap shoot. Ohio State would have hired Archie Miller if IU had not, then hired Holtmann, now Diebler (who might still work out)
 
how does a senior miss 2 free throws with under 18 seconds left in regulation??????????????

The last I checked, he was the head coach at Michigan. He has already told IU, "Thank you, but no thanks."
Have not seen that anywhere. If you have, point me...

...and before you respond...the extension means nothing, he wanted that regardless and the IU chatter ensured he got it.

In his current position, he can achieve great success without returning home and dealing with the challenges of being the head coach of IU basketball. Typically, that role does not end well.
 
I'm a little surprised Minnesota moved on from Ben Johnson. Felt like he did about as well as he could given the constraints he was coaching under this year.

Probably second behind Michigan State in over achievement in the B1G this season with team NIL that matches individual conference players.

Their AD must have already gotten confirmation of a replacement wanting the job and a tentative deal is in place.

It definitely is but if your program basically needs a rebuild why hire a first year head coach from a staff that got fired? It was an extremely lazy hire. The school has tons of money and they didn’t even attempt to lure anyone away from somewhere else

I’m not saying OSU should be some powerhouse basketball school overnight, but there is absolutely no reason they shouldn’t be at least in the top 4-6 in the B1G and in the tournament nearly every year

It was a bizarre hire for sure.

They also looked damn near the exact same from the past several years too. Which shouldn't be surprising considering lol.

Maybe Archie would have killed it in Columbus.

The restaurants and bars downtown are bummed
A couple of the players didn’t look that bummed

The restaurants depending on the 6K or so IU fans there today? Place felt empty. IU has unbelievably made themselves irrelevant. Given the Knight era that may be a singularly bad result. Current coaching search is confirming IU is kryptonite. I’m cool with it. 😎

6K? lol Nice try

There were that many in line at Kilroys at 9 am dipshit

Plenty of cheap seats for tonight though.

Coach search? Tell me what you know dipshit.

That may be, but he hasn't said anything close to that...that I have seen. Are quoting him?
 
Worried about Claude and Yates’ ability to score in bunches. Hope the guys are dialed in.
