I lot of people up here at IU are wondering why Bennett didn't come to IU last year and now is taking the UVA job. I for one am glad IU got Tom Crean (because of his recruiting ability and style of play), but I also think Bennett will be good for UVA.

I thought that was strange too. My guess is he realized after this season that he will never win big at WSU. Also apparently his wife really enjoyed their time in the virginia area when he coached for some NBA team (?) or something.

The WSU fans are up in arms over this. Saying Bennett "betrayed" them. They also don't think UVA is a better job than WSU. :lolabove: There is something about pacific northwest people that make them completely delusional about their teams. Oregon, Oregon State, and WSU fans all fit under this category.

Also, I believe IU will back in National contention within 4 years. I'm predicting the next time the NC comes to Indy; not in 2010, but the next time (I think it comes here every 4 years) IU will be there.
