Ahhh you got me there Enemy, forgot about him. With him being out at Washington State, I don't know much about his situation. I know that IU is obviously a step up and he is a Midwest guy, but it seems to me that the UW job may be his "dream" job. If he takes the IU job, he may never see the change to coach at UW. I think IU goes after Pitino,then, Pearl, then Bennett, then Stallings, then Miller, then Brownell. If that all fails, they have to go for Alford IMO. I think the first 3 loooong shots, but they have to at least try. Who the hell knows with Greenspan though. |

We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel.

That I don't know. I think if he enjoys WSU enough, he would wait it out. Ryan isn't exactly young if I remember correctly and just looking at him. Plus, Bennett is relatively young and could probably get a nice little pay raise and hone his craft in a pressure free setting. It all really depends on how much he likes WSU, how much he wants the UW job, and if he wants to tackle the beast that is coaching at Indiana University (lots of perks, lots of challenges, lots of craziness). |

Is anybody going to talk about any real credentials behind their Pitino predictions. You 2 school girls are fighting over who posted it first, but neither of you have given us any reason to believe it....and I want to believe it bad! |

Twist it just a hair more and the body says, "Hey, I'll take it from here because you obviously don't know what you're doing... Lie down now, rest, and we'll talk about this when you regain your senses." It's called the knockout mechanism. | |

i for one do not want to believe it. i don't know why but i just can't stand the guy. i don't know what it is but i hate louisville more than uk now and its because of pitino...if he came to iu it would make me sick... ...and besides he's too old. i don't want to be going through this coaching change shit for another 20 years. they need to get a young guy in there now that will be solid for 15 to 20 years minimum. will pitino win right off the bat...probably. but that is not what we need right now. we need to just be consistent. we need our OWN pitino. we need someone young who will come in and do what he did with uk...only not leave 9 years into it...he's a money chaser and that is not what we need. to me he just does not fit the iu program. |

I don't think IU will go after Pearl because of previous NCAA problems. IU wont make that mistake again..... <_< |
