I'm pulling for Grant. Hopefully at the least it'll be Grant, Brownell or something. How can you not talk one of these coaches into it. This is why I say we need to get Jurich or someone like that for AD. If Jurich can get Pitino to U of L and the other coaches he has gotten in his program's then how the hell can our guys not sell heat to an eskimo. God this is depressing. I'm pulling for Grant.

However for some reason I'm getting the feeling that since Miller and Bennett are out of the picture, we might hire someone totally off the radar, kind of like the Sampson deal. I just don't know what will happen now. Yeah you know…in my post above I didn't even really know who the guy was…I was just reading up…Coached for Donovan…I wouldn't reject that.

If everyone is rejecting us left and right, nobody could blame us for getting someone with some potential ( I personally think great). Why do we have to settle for somthing we don't really want? At worst case scenario, if it does not work out we could get somone in three years to get a new up and comer or a stud. Guys if were not getting anybody why not take a chane with Anthony Grant?

Scheduled to leave Minn at 7:05 EDT. Did we go meet someone there for talks? Or is this something else? The plane that left for Albuquerque is registered to someone in Del., although it could be a charter. I think we just need to relax and let them do their job. We can beat this horse long after it's dead. The article about Bennett says he chose not to explore the opportunity and we were just judging his interest. I imagine we are gauging several coaches interest at this point, or at least I hope we are. A plane registered to the IU Foundation left Bloomington at 2:35 this afternoon for Minneapolis.
