00:00You know, is there any truth at all to Beard?
00:07Well, I don't know what Indiana's attitude
00:10will be toward that.
00:11I know that there are portions of the fan base
00:13that are fine with it,
00:14but I'm not sure whether that's an Indiana position,
00:20an IU position maybe would be the way to put it.
00:23It's not religious at all.
00:24I'm not sure that that's the direction
00:25that they'd want to go.
00:27I haven't asked anybody there at this point
00:30what their appetite for that would be,
00:33but there are clearly obstacles to that.
00:36And I think that there are coaches
00:38that would better fit the position.
00:40And TJ, if you gotta pay a buyout or take that on,
00:45I would pay the buyout.
00:48Yeah, I would too.
00:49Now, look, let's stop acting like, you know,
00:52Indiana's a Jesuit school or something or a Catholic.
00:57They're dealing with the diocese.
00:59Let's stop.
01:00They had Bob Knight cussing people out for 30 years.
01:03And you know what?
01:05That's what they missed, in my opinion.
01:07I want Cronan,
01:09because he's, to me, the second coming of him.
01:12And they have been soft as saltwater taffy
01:16since Bob Knight left there.
01:18Well, I think that you could make that case that,
01:22I think the exception to that possibly
01:24would be Calvin Sampson's years,
01:25and there's a lot of issues there.
01:28I'm not sure that that's, like I said, going to happen.
01:32The power to power hasn't happened
01:35with that exception of the Carolina-Kansas thing.
01:38It hasn't happened.
01:39And that, like I said,
01:41that power to power concept has expanded over time.
01:44It's not just blue blood to blue blood,
01:46but it's Alabama and what they're able to do financially,
01:49and Auburn and what they're able to do financially.
01:52It's not the same as it was 15 years ago.
01:55Indiana is still a better basketball brand,
01:58but that doesn't mean that it necessarily
02:01has huge advantages in this environment
02:04over Auburn and Alabama.
02:06So go where you find somebody that's really gifted
02:10and ready to take you to the next level.
02:12And that's why I mentioned those first two names.
02:15Yeah, and they'll lose tonight in East Lansing again, too.
02:17Like, they were five minutes into the game this weekend,
02:20and I said they were going to lose,
02:21and they lost again.
02:23All they do is lose.
02:24And Dusty May beat them.
