This is interesting. Sources are saying Lansing won't be back. Now we gotta worry ISU might play lights out for him. MVC ARch Madness may have gotten tougher.

Indiana St is getting obliterated just about everywhere.

It's funny because Lansing is a solid coach doing some nice things with a program that is hardly a destination for coaches. Sometimes these colleges get big stars in their eyes when look at a team like Loyola and think, "Hey we can do that." The problem is 1) it doesn't happen overnight; 2) you need a coach willing to take on the situation; 3) you need commitment from the school to a coach to let him build and other things i.e. $s for facilities, travel, coach's salary; 4) you need some luck in finding some kids that stick around and blossom.

In our case we got all of those things and we had the City of Chicago and a great academic reputation to sell on top of the rest. I am not sure if Indiana State can become a great program through a coaching change based on the facilities, budget, location of the school. Lansing is a few wins from actually becoming the all-time winningest coach down there with the handicaps he works under.
