msn.com has a story on this. Gottlieb announced this while on the Dan Patrick show today. Not a whole lot of info in the article.
This will be fun to watch, not everybody in Bloomington is crazy about bringing him back.
We can only hope SA gets the IU gig. SA has proven he can win in the preseason and be successful in shallow leagues. Winning in the B1G is an entirely different animal. This is a league that has had 7, yes 7, different current members compete in the NC game since 2002. SA won't take IU any farther than Crean.
And despite the success he's having this year, he was on the verge of being run out of town at the beginning of the season. Lonzo Ball giving him enough to have a big year and keep the wolves at bay for the time being, but his tenure was very tepid before 2016-17, by UCLA standards. He'd get some good recruits at IU, too, but he's still gotta coach them. I suspect you're right that the results may be similar to Crean.
I've heard the same thing. A lot of people in Indiana are still concerned about how he handled the Pierce situation. Some people on here think we hold a grudge for too long.This will be fun to watch, not everybody in Bloomington is crazy about bringing him back.

GO HAWKS!!!
I'm not so sure about that. Nunge is NOT a top 100 prospect and I believe he's #5 at his position in Indiana. While that's good, a lot of people are saying he'd get his pick of Indiana players. Why not go after #1?there are plenty not happy about it - but I think it will work because of who he is - I mean, most of the Indiana HS coaches grew up idolizing Indiana basketball and Steve - he's going to get every bit of support from all parties involved and every one will be swimming in one direction - where as Crean created ripples. Good thing we got Nunge, I don't see how that's even possible with SA there.
Yes .. seriously. From what I've heard it's closer to 50% than 1%.-------A lot of people in Indiana are still concerned about how he handled the Pierce situation.
Seriously??? I'd say that less than 1% of them are concerned about that....they are concerned about him winning.
I live in Indiana and a lot of people are concerned with his handling of the situation and his morals. Personally about 90% of the Indiana fans I have asked do not want him.-------A lot of people in Indiana are still concerned about how he handled the Pierce situation.
Seriously??? I'd say that less than 1% of them are concerned about that....they are concerned about him winning.
Don't forget how his idol Bobby spoke of women when getting raped. "They might as well lay there and enjoy it". And Stevie lives by BK's opinion of him.-------A lot of people in Indiana are still concerned about how he handled the Pierce situation.
