Does he listen ?

I can't imagine any scenario he wouldn't listen, it's Indiana basketball.

I’m pretty much right on the cutoff age wise where that really doesn’t mean much anymore.

No different than Nebraska football though. Last national title game for IU was 2002.

Fred makes $4.25M, which is $250K more than Woodson. It increases $100K every year after with a $500K bonus in March 2027.

IMO, Fred makes the tournament again & I can see Dannen go real strong with an raise/extension ($5M minimum) as Troy doesn't want a L this early in his tenure. And fans would be all over him with b2b appearances and walking to another B1G program, even if it's Indiana. Cronin is who I'd keep the biggest eye on as he's not happy UCLA is in the B1G - from a travel standpoint.

Indiana isn’t calling Fred lol they’ll try to hire a big name. Wouldn’t be shocked if they went after Brad Stevens or even McDermott.

Chris Beard was a name floated by Robin that might make sense

Hard to say if they would be interested in Beard given how he was fired at Texas. I think Buzz Williams, McDermott and Dusty May should be names to watch. If IU moved on from Woodson last year they probably would have hired May.

 

[Southendzonehusker]

IU should hire a good coach and with DeVries going to Cockeye I think the B1G is going to be tough.

Really tough.

Not ideal

Pretty fun watches here:

They’ll go after Dusty May first.

 

[Southendzonehusker]

They’ll go after Dusty May first.

Don’t disagree. If IU would have fired Woodson last year I think he is their coach. Would just be interesting to see if he would listen given that he just took the Michigan job.
