the recruits aren't THAT good. Dakich gets the job with a BT title and a elite 8 or better run. Otherwise hire from outside and keep Danny boy as head of b-ball operations |

If Ebanks and Holloway don't go to IU, the Hoosiers will be lucky to win 10 conference games next season. |

what you and other idiots fail to realize is if a new coach comes in - say, Bennett, he might bring some excellent recruits with him. |

And none of them will bring a kid the quality of Ebanks or Holloway. Plus, you never know which players will leave. They could all come and still struggle to win 10 games depending on what Bassett, Ellis, Crawford, Holman, and McGee do. You never know, but if there isn't some major talent coming in, there will be major troubles. |

Daddy has had $$$ in his eyes since Eric was a freshman in HS. Plus, I think EJ is tired of class, but thats just what I've heard from friends on campus. |

I agree that the only way DD stays if he wins out the rest of the way in the B10 and then goes deep in the NCAA. We do not need another replacement coach. We tried that all ready and while Bill Lynch has done a creditable job, the jury is still out on that one. Lets go all out and get a big name coach who will immediately bring something to the table here. |

Of the viable candidates (Bennett, Miller, Brownell) they don't have difference making recruits. Devin Ebanks is a MUST for IU if they want to compete at all next season. Even with him, I find it hard to believe that they will be a BT championship threat, but who knows. Every day I am leaning more and more towards thinking that Dakich is going to be given a chance. but thats just a feeling because I think IU will go after a few big names, strike out and then just keep Dakich for a discount. |

Bennett : http://washingtonstate.rivals.com/commitli...ort=2&school=95 Drew: http://washingtonstate.rivals.com/commitli...ort=2&school=95 Pearl (unlikely but possible): http://washingtonstate.rivals.com/commitli...ort=2&school=95 Which one of these guy's recruiting classes is blows your socks off? Taking into account that bringing the guys with him is no easy task. |

All of those links go the Washington St. page. And don't you guys kind of defeat your own reasoning, saying that Purdue doesn't need any "one and dones" because they have that whole team concept going. But, in the same breath you are saying that we are done if we don't get Ebanks. |

Sorry, my keyboard is wireless and the batteries are dying and I haven't been to Walmart to buy some more yet. My copy and paste must have shorted out, but Rivals is easy to navigate. Tennessee had two four star players...about the best class |

You are done because you will have a HUGE hole to fill every season and have to replace it with a one and done or else you are going to drop off from the season before. Just look at the last two classes, one 5 star with a bunch of role players around them. If you can get the star to stick around, thats good, but when he leaves, it creates HUGE holes that must be replaced. With high quality players who stick around, you have less holes to fill from year to year and can create stability and sustained success. |
