Same thing with Matta. <br>I think IU stands a better chance of landing a young, promising, up and coming coach with potential than someone with the stature of Matta or Pearl. I like Bennetts involvement in recruiting some of the top names and tallent of Wisconsin as well. I think Bennett could really gain the support of the Hoosier nation quickly and play by the rules. We need someone we can support that will do things the right way. I loved Sampson as a coach but he just couldn't play by the rules. It sucks to see him go, especially the way he did, but I think its really opened an opportunity for us to go after someone who can really lead us down the road. If we hold out on Bennett to see what happens over the next few years, we'll lose the opportunity. I think the time is right and he'd be happy to bolt the west coast for the storied tradition and incredible Hoosier fan base.

My one fear would be his ability to recruit (particularly in-state), but reading about his involvement with drawing Tucker and Harris is encouraging.

The only reason he\'s not still there, from what I understood, is he had issues with the head brass at UNC-W.<br><br>However, he has turned Wright St. into another fantastic mid-major (ick...hate that term) program.  Plus, he played high school ball with Calbert Cheaney and worked for a few years on the bench with Jim Crews at Evansville.

The downsides to Bennett are the lack of experience and tournament success.  As a 3 seed last year, WSU was upset in the second round by Vandy. <br><br>If WSU and Bennett have a good run this year in the tourney, he solidifies himself as a top candidate in my mind.  <br><br>I still think the first move should be to contact some successful coaches at traditional football schools on the off chance they want to make a move - someone like Rick Barnes or Bruce Pearl.  If they aren\'t interested, both sides pretend like the conversation never happened and you move on to guys like Bennett or Miller.</div>\

He is in the process of building a solid program as a school that hasn\'t had one since George Raveling.  His team plays in the toughest conference in the country and gets plenty of west coast television exposure.  Unlike Indiana, he could endure a couple of losing seasons at WSU and not have "fans" turn on him.  His work over the course of a year with student/athletes won\'t be judged on losing to a more athletically talented team from Vandy in the NCAA.  There are much better choices for Indiana, who should have known that Sampson wasn\'t one of them.  There was no love lost when he left WSU.  All the best in finding a solid coach for the program.  With all the talented players that come from Indiana, you deserve to have a great program they can matriculate to.</div>\

You are correct that he could endure losing seasons more easily at WSU, could survive early tournament exits, and generally could have job security even if he never gets past the second weekend of the tournament.  What it comes down to is that some coaches crave the challenge of coaching a school with a great tradition, crazy fan support, high expectations, and lots of resources.  Others don\'t crave those settings.  There are negatives (it will get ugly if he doesn\'t succeed), but he also would have a much better chance of advancing to the Final Four and winning a NCAA title at IU.  If job security, stability, and lifestyle are his priorities, he should stay at WSU.  If he wants to find his best chance to cut down the nets on the first Monday in April, he should come to IU.</div>\

It\'s hard to understand the argument..."not enough experience"  How is a good young coach i.e. Drew or Bennett supposed to get experience if someone doesn\'t take a chance and give them a shot. Look at the body of work for each coach:<br>Drew: took a program that was all but extinct and said, "Lazarus, arise!"<br>Bennett: Took a program that was a Pac-10 doormat for years and made it MORE than respectable. <br><br>Both did this at schools where it would be difficult to recruit. What did they do? They went abroad and found some \'playas\'! Unlike Mike Davis and Sampson, who both pissed away Ben Allen\'s talent...they took this foreign talent and taught them how to play ball in America. Now...just imagine what they could do if they were given the "keys" to a program like IU where the recruiting budget is 3 times larger than the Wazzu and Baylor combined (purely an educated guess). <br><br>If you want to get younger and have a coach that\'s going to stay, give one of these two a shot!</div>\

I love the passion, emotion, and intensity that Pearl could bring to IU but unless we come up with some more loaded annonymous donors, I just don\'t see it happening.  Same thing with Matta. <br>I think IU stands a better chance of landing a young, promising, up and coming coach with potential than someone with the stature of Matta or Pearl. I like Bennetts involvement in recruiting some of the top names and tallent of Wisconsin as well. I think Bennett could really gain the support of the Hoosier nation quickly and play by the rules. We need someone we can support that will do things the right way. I loved Sampson as a coach but he just couldn\'t play by the rules. It sucks to see him go, especially the way he did, but I think its really opened an opportunity for us to go after someone who can really lead us down the road. If we hold out on Bennett to see what happens over the next few years, we\'ll lose the opportunity. I think the time is right and he\'d be happy to bolt the west coast for the storied tradition and incredible Hoosier fan base. I\'m voting for Bennett...or Sean Miller of Xavier...both would be great catches for the Hoosiers.</div>\
