Thoughts? Seems kind of strange to leave Okie after 9 years as OC only to take the worst job in the Big Ten.

I think this is a good hire.

Technically, I cast Wilson as Satan, and put words in his mouth. I also portrayed Indiana as Hell and Oklahoma as Heaven. All of these portrayals are matters of opinion.

They are also reporting that Brad Childress is a candidate for the Miami job, so I am inclined to think that IU has not made any decisions.

Their coaching search took quite a bit less time than ours. How can they find their coach so quickly when their program is in much worse shape than ours? I would think that they would want to take their time and evaluate all the possible coaches out there to help rebuild the program, but I guess not.

The "multiple sources" indicator makes me think it is more than mere gossip.

Are you saying that when Wilson arrives in the Indiana locker room to address his team for the first time, he'll hear nothing but a chorus of mocking hisses? For then and for all eternity?

Yes. But that's true no matter who they hire.

Look for rumors to abound that Wilson is the devil, according to reliable sources.

Kevin Wilson is from the Randy Walker/Terry Heoppner coaching tree. Hoeppner was hugely popular at IU. Wilson has been wildly successful as OU coordinator. This makes total sense to me.

Now, that said, if I were doing the hiring at IU, it would take me about 25 seconds to get a deal done with Jerry Kill. Perfect fit, IMO.

Maybe it's because they have lower standards and/or are willing to settle for less?
