i dont think he will last past two seasons period not even on his record but his actions. He bolted from WV after one season. Trust me if he even gets some heat he will leave he sounds like a dude who bolts. I guess maybe money may keep him but who knows
It's tough to say. Unless things completely go in the tank, I think he'll get at least three seasons.i dont think he will last past two seasons period not even on his record but his actions.

Here's the issue, imo: He's not a bad enough coach to get the ax quickly ... but he's not good enough to move the program forward. My fear is that the admin will adhere to a "he's better than Archie and Woody" mindset. If he goes 20-12 every season and sneaks into the NCAAT, he could be here for a while. Ugh.

I will not be shocked if he leaves after this season. I doubt he can handle heat he seems soft and weak and he is really not very likeable he is just boring and bland. How many days til football season?

He may get his three seasons because that is what IU does but we all know how this will end. Frankly its hard to even really care much anymore people are already counting down the days to the football season.

I don't know. Woodson was essentially that and had powerful ppl behind him and was a legendary alumni and Dolson wanted to push him out after 3. I don't think somebody without any ties are major backers is going to be allowed to just 'coast' for too long.

I still do not fully understand how NIL works meaning if you can basically say what program your money should go to or nort. Does Dolson decide what program to give it too? I mean if you can really decide I don't see much money going to basketball honestly. If there is not enough money for DD to get high impact guys he is already toast as we have seen what he can do with the the money he had last year. His talent evaluation is very poor.
It pains me to say, but in the current landscape, the ROI in basketball does not warrant putting much money into that sport. Football drives everything.

In theory, NIL is between the donor and the player. If I want to pay Tucker DeVries $100k to use his photo in an ad for my business, that is allowed.
In practice it seems to be just boosters paying into collectives and the school and collectives work out what they are going to pay or offer the players. The actual use of the players name, image, or likeness for anything seems completely optional. Maybe they sign over their general NIL rights in exchange for the money?
Yeah, supposedly not 'pay for play', that is not allowed, but Cig let that cat out of the bag his first week or two on the job where he said 'you just rank the players and decide who gets what' ... which is pay for play other than semantics.

and as a donor you can earmark it for a sport or a player.
I think DD is solid coach. This team is just overmatched physically in the Big 10. they wear down as games and now the season moves forward. Michigan looked like they had a size and physical advantage at every position. IMO, Wilkerson and Devries can start for most all NCAA power conference teams. For IU they are expected to carry them as go to guys. IMO, they run a system and execute and even dominate when they play equal or less talented teams (mostly mid-majors). Against power conference teams they struggle to get open shots and even get open off the ball and their defensive intensity is just overmatched by superior athletes. This team is built to dominate a mid major conference. If DD doesn't upgrade the recruiting then he won't last long. I see HS guard commits but still nothing on the bigman front other than Acemovic.
Other than sisley and Dorn all the rotation guys are seniors. No Harris, no Miles, no big serb center in the roatation. Is he trying to redshirt these guys for next year or are they just not good enough to crack the rotation? I see Ristic get some garbage time. Is his Frosh year burned and he cannot be redshirted?

You can be a solid coach but if you cannot put a roster together that is needed in big ten play it really does not matter. I knew the day the portal ended this roster would not cut it in the big ten. Most all the good teams have 7 footers and he thought a guy like his kid or Bailey would be able to guard them? Give me a break. There is not much coming back so unless the lightbulb goes on in his head and he kills the portal next year will be rough again.
The way TD has played this year he isn't starting at many top level teams. He's been a disappointment and has gotten worse as the season has gone on
@hoosiers94 I agree 100% TD is a complete disappointment in my opinion, nothing like I expected from the fanfare saying he was a dead eye shooter and all American type player. He's not even close to either of those and he's slow as molasses.

They had him ranked like a top 30 portal ranking which is a massive miss from those who do rankings. The only legit high level player we got is wilkerson
