Here we go again!

An ESPN talking head said that Indiana would love to get Rick Barnes. He did, however, say that they might have so difficulty in getting him. I didn't catch the reason they might have some difficulty.

There's no "here we go again" about it.

It's been floating around connecting Rick Barnes to the Indiana job. The NC State rumors had legs. The Kentucky rumors had legs. This one has no legs. It won't happen.

Look for Tony Bennett, is what I'm hearing. If Indiana wants to try to aim a little higher first, good for them, but it ain't happening with Barnes. If it was ever going to happen, it isn't now. The timing is about as poor as it could be for the Hoosiers in Barnes' case.

People can worry about it if they want, but I won't be joining them, and I've worried plenty in the past.

Indiana is a grave yard for coaches...who would want to go there now? Maybe another coach on probation.

Thanks SLX, I really wasn't too concerned, just a "little" concerned.

ESPN's web site has a few things to say about the sleezy world of coaches/AAU connections. Here is the link:

I first learned of this dirty connection from your posts on this board.

I think Tony Bennett is more likely to replace Eddie Sutton. That's where his heart is.
