Sampson at IU

Here is a link to the yahoo version (via AP).
That's a pretty good gig. Screw around with the rules. Put a black eye on one of the cleanest programs in the history of the NCAA, and pocket 750k for your troubles. What a jackass. IU is much better without that sleaze bag.

Forde has the five quality candidates IU should consider on espn.com
1. Tony Bennett - Wash St
2. Sean Miller
3. Brad Brownell - Wright St
4. Mark Few - Gonzaga
5. Thad Matta - the OSU
Very interesting I hadn't heard Mark Few mentioned before.D-Bagging his way to the NBA.

I'd understand why anyone might want to coach the Hoosiers. It is a great program with vast history and a gigantic following. They are going to be screwed a bit though. They'll get some smacks from the NCAA, which they have earned. Too bad for them. But they'll recover. I like IU a lot. I just hate Sampson.

How long until Sampson has a new job? My guess is that he has to take a year off and is coaching a LaSalle type program in 09-10.

I would laugh if Matta took that job. I always thought he would end up coaching the Hoosiers, and now that he has been at OSU for a few years, I can see him jumping at the chance to coach at IU.
That said, I don't know if it is even possible. I thought there was a rule against Big Ten coaches leaving one Big Ten school for another. But I could be wrong."All I need are some tasty waves, a cool buzz and I'm fine.--Jeff Spicoli"
