Indiana should suspend and fire themselves for hiring Sampson in the first place. Someone cut his hair off a long time ago.

I really wander if he will ever get a D-1 job again?

 

If he does, I doubt it will ever be at the big-time level of D-1!

He gets one. There will be some Northeast Valley Southern State college somewhere that will want to make a run in DI and willing to sell their soul to a coach that has success and swears up and down he, hold on let him take this call.....has reformed.

In other news: It's Cold outside...

Anyone think that the $2.2 million lawsuit that Jim O'Brien just won against Ohio State for wrongful termination has played a role in IU's decision? I think they are handling the situation very carefully because of that, and are making sure that they have covered all their based before letting him go.....which I think they eventually will do.

I totally agree el gato!

Should be fired and receive a 3 year ban from coaching at a NCAA school or broadcasting a NCAA game. Put some teeth on these things with the coach.

 

Yep. Or possibly a lifetime ban since it is his second offense.

A ban isn't likely to happen. I feel that he will not be allowed to make any contact with recruits or leave campus to recruit for 3-5 years.

Which basically means you would be crazy to hire him anyway.

^ Sho nuff...but somebody will.

Gone...

 

As it turns out, Indiana's 77-68 victory over Purdue last Tuesday will be Kelvin Sampson's last as the Hoosiers head coach.

 

Sampson was informed early Thursday that he will no longer be the coach at Indiana, numerous sources told FOXSports.com.

 

The official announcement is expected to come Friday, when the university's self-imposed seven-day investigation period ends.

 

When asked to confirm Sampson's firing, Indiana director of media relations J.D. Campbell told FOXSports.com, "I don't know that to be true."

 

Campbell also said no official announcement was currently scheduled for Friday.

 

All signs point to Indiana assistant Dan Dakich, a former Hoosier player and assistant coach under Bob Knight, taking the reins for the remainder of the season.

 

The move comes just eight days after the NCAA announced its findings that Sampson had committed five major rules violations. The NCAA alleged that Sampson placed improper phone calls to recruits, then provided false and misleading information about those calls to both university and NCAA investigators.

 

In response, university president Michael McRobbie said the school would conduct a new investigation into the accusations.

 

A school investigation last year had revealed that Sampson and his assistants had made more than 100 impermissible calls, but the school had previously contended that the violations were secondary in nature.

 

Sampson was already on NCAA probation when he took the Indiana job for making 577 improper phone calls between 2000 and 2004 while the coach at Oklahoma
