It is not really a " lightbulb " moment anyone can see you need bigs in the big ten. I would certainly hope a dude making 5 million a year could also see. I am not go giving him props for seeing the obvious the proof will be on the court. 

He obviously didn't see.

Which is a huge red flag imo. He is a top four big ten paid coach he said know these things going in.

@hooky how about a PG, how about athletic wings.  I’m not convinced he gets anything.

I heard Enright is petitioning for another year.

 

What about Bailey?  Definitely need them both back.

 

I think " true fans" leal may still be trying to get another year. But Bailey 100% needs to get one

He'll get his 3rd year even if next year is a repeat.

I just wish we'd get this hire right again.

He has to say those things. He can't say 'the guys I paid to play as bigs turned out to be shit' .

It is his hire he has to say that especially only after one year. Fred Glass was still signing Crean's praises right up until he fired him.  Dolson deep down is probably not that happy with this season.

@arioznahoosier4554 everyone hates this hire.  This year has been a total disaster.  I don’t see any positives.  He can’t pick players, he isn’t a good coach, and has the exact opposite temperament of what IU needs.  

IU needs a cocky asshole like cig.  It’s in our DNA. This hire was so stupid.  A guy that has never got a T at IU?? Retarded.  We need a dan Hurley.

I'm still hoping he works out.  I'm not hopeful, though.  I'm more concerned that next year will be another year when we're in the bubble conversation.

@hooky If we are, I will be on the get rid of him train! Zero excuses next yr - has a full coaching staff, GM, can start when portal opens, and has top 20 class coming in - next year should look much much better or IU needs to cut ties and go get Schertz.

To me, three kids isn't nearly a top 20 class when you need about 8 guys . But, he needs a top 20 class including portal! Hope we see it once the dust settles.

I believe Baily should be third or fourth option.  If we don't have 2-3 better than him, not competitive.  Like the guy but not top talent.  Go Hoosiers!

@mobilehoosier Seems to me that he handles the ball decently well but he can't do the other stuff he tries to do.
