With the Indiana men’s basketball coaching job set to open this offseason, could the Hoosiers take some lessons from two programs of similar stature in the same region?
Both Kentucky and Louisville had vacancies at head coach last offseason for wildly different reasons. The Cardinals were moving on from the utter disaster that was the two-year Kenny Payne era while the Wildcats were the stunner of the offseason when longtime figurehead John Calipari fled for Arkansas after yet another early bouncing in March Madness.
Just like Indiana, both of these programs swung for the fences with their first few names.
