The Sturgeon General.
Shaka won’t ever leave Marquette …
Bennett is a west coast guy and he likes where he’s at …
McCasland is on the fast track to coaching anywhere he wants … He’s on Carolina’s short list … There’s talk Texas would fire Terry if they could get McCasland on board …
Enfield is a name for FSU but them Dallas boosters are really giving him a lot of NIL …
I’ve been told Pikiell is on the hot seat at Rutgers …
Names for IU from one of their top boosters …
Dusty May … Chris Beard …

Dusty May … Chris Beard …
End of list …
Dusty May...poor Michigan, they are a feeder program.
May made so much sense for them last year and everyone but them could see it. Was Woodson's buyout just too big last year?
The majority of the boosters and AD were happy to let him go last year … The AD doesn’t make decisions at IU … It’s controlled by one or two MEGA boosters … One of those guys is paying Ballo, Reneau and Mgbako by himself … And he ponied up HUGE money for Cignetti contract and NIL for him …
After last night … He is reportedly over it … Woodson will be gone and they want May but would take Beard …
Does May have any kind of buyout at Michigan? I would think they would have put something in the contract to protect them from this very situation
May’s buyout, should he leave for another job, starts at $5 million and decreases each of the next four years, from $4 million to $2 million to $1 million to $500,000 …
$4 or $5 million ain’t nothing to IU …
I mostly don't like this because I think May will do a good job at IU, but for Michigan to have found a good replacement for Juwan, only to have him bounce to coach another team in the conference after just one season is objectively hilarious.

I think Beard is a much better coach than May. That past arrest is probably something they want to steer clear of though.
Hmmm... Mark Cuban? Carl Cook? Herb Simon? Jim Irsay?
IU wants a winner … They don’t care about baggage at this point …
And if it ain’t IU hiring Beard … It’ll be someone else … The charge was dropped …
IU wants May … They’ve made it clear …

Realistic names for Michigan … Chris Jans … Will Wade … Richard Pitino … Ben McCollum … Porter Moser …
I heard John Groce could be a candidate too! IU couldn't believe we ever let him go!
The rumor in Bloomington is that Carl brought in Cig. Spending $10M or so a year on IU sports would be nothing to him, that's like a week's worth of interest from his portfolio.
Carl is very involved … Especially financially …
Funny thing to me is that he went to Purdue …
Andy Mohr is very involved … Cuban doesn’t give as much as people think …

Yea but his dad and Bob Knight were real close and his company has hired a long line of IU athletes - plus he lives in Bloomington. I'm sure he only went to Purdue because IU doesn't have engineering.Carl is very involved … Especially financially …

I saw him at the Illinois game in Bloomington, still the same nonchalant dude walking around like he's not the richest man in IN lol
The weather would be good enough for me!
Who are some of Illinois' biggest donors? Or is that something they like to remain behind the curtains?Carl is very involved … Especially financially …

I have no actual info on this but I would guess Shad Kahn is on the list.
Larry Gies, John Guliani, Shad, The Atkins Group, The Irwins.
