Ben Johnson hires his old HS coach(Dave Thorson) as an assistant. Also coached Gabe Kalscheur in HS.

 
Don’t even link the tweet. I’m drinking myself to sleep tonight

Good Lord, the Big 10 is doomed, lololol
Dave Thorson is one of the best HS coaches in Minnesota state history. He won 9 state championships. He's also an elite defensive coach. Since he started at Colorado State they went from 261 - 72 in defensive efficiency. Iowa would be lucky to have him. That's right, they don't hire defensive coaches.

No. We've heard he doesn't like the B1G style of play but that's a nice Illinois way of looking at it. IMO he would have announced his return had he come back.
He’s going to Virginia for their style of play? That’s a nice way Indiana way of looking it. He wanted out of Indiana.

We should find out soon but just saying, he's not not going to Illinois because he'd not want to play Indiana is worse logic. The coach he came to play for got fired so can't complain that's he's looking at his options.

In other news, it sounds like Adam Miller chose to make his own decisions, and it’s likely he’ll return to Illinois.

About what?
False alarm. We were trying to connect dots on a vague post which included mention of Purdue potentially hiring Mitchell’s dad despite not having much of an opening in the post.

should note that the post didn’t say it was likely, but the opportunity exists.

Not sure who Mitchell is?

That’s why we’re confused about PU being discussed with Tre Mitchell and your staff having openings was brought up too. No idea
First I’ve head of this, it hasn’t been mentioned on the HB at all. Didn’t even know who Tre Mitchell was until just now.

I wouldnt put too much thought into it. It was simply a mis-read of the situation by some posters. Including me.

IU returning the entire team that went 12-15 last year? A final four is definitely in the works.
Plus at least 2, maybe 3, new players, in addition possibly to a medical RS from last season rejoining the roster. So pretty much like a regular roster turnover.
