Coaching Carousel (Basketball)

Man Indiana's entire basketball program seems to be in complete shambles right now with rumors that practically everyone on the roster right now jumping ship via the transfer portal with absolutely no one coming in.
You love to see it.

And likely going to lose their top assistant … He’s made it pretty well known he’s very open to moving …

Will he have to return the clown pants?
If not, he could hang them off a pole in his garden to scare off the critters…
Chicago did support the college game back when DePaul was good. Also, Loyola is packing their place now while it was a ghost town a decade ago. They would get support if they could be consistently decent.
The Bulls really took over the Chicago area with Jordan and the 6 championships and even up to the DRose teams, but feel like excitement is at an all time low for them in my lifetime. I think the fans would show up if DePaul could have a couple good years and maybe a surprise tourney run to build some excitement.
I feel like Goldilocks. I want Willard, Woodson and Juwan to lose at Maryland, IU and scUM. Not too much or they will get fired (may be to late). Not too little or they will get momentum. Is there a little bed that's just right?
The Indiana thing is the huge drawback to hiring an alum. He should be gone, but the optics of giving Archie four years while he did worse than an alum, well. Not good.
Wow. A "Line of Duty" reference. Great, great show.

Great show
and I find it interesting how the Brits do not refer to rank using names like “sergeant” or “captain” , but use letter initials & numbers

Not just Krikke, they lost their top 4 scorers. So on an 11 win mid-major, that was a huge rebuild. It will take 2-3 more seasons at least to show results.

Doesn't the order of things seem odd? He commits to Woodson, Woodson is retained, kid de-commits. Did anything change other than the kid's mind (and some KU $$$)?
Does there need to be anything else?
I am going to LIKE every one of these Eric Gordon posts. Oh the schaedenfreude is
Woodson ain’t gonna make it.
You mean after next year, or IU will go back on their word?

Yeah, that would only become an even worse look. How can you announce you're retaining someone and then go back on it less than a week later? Would scream incompetence.
After next year.

To this point, I don't understand why anyone would want that job if they had hopes of making a jump up. I am a member at Kishwaukee CC, which is located in DeKalb, and there is virtually no talk about basketball at all. There will be some chattering about football, but basketball is simply not a priority. It is tough to win there; though I guess there are very low expectations.
I believe they have only won the MAC tournament once (1982) and made the NCAA three times total. I do not see that program as anywhere useful to jumpstarting a coaching career. To my knowledge, only Jim Molinari used the job to move up slightly (moving to Bradley after two seasons, the latter which NIU made the NCAA in 1991).

McDougal. West Aurora HS coach, IIRC. and Molinari. but to your point, it ain't a long list
Seems like he has an eye for talent & development, given what we've seen with Domask & Jones. Would we consider him for an AC opening...if there's multiple?
