IU replacing Tom Crean with Steve Alford OR Archie Miller?

OSU has a very low tolerance for football mediocrity.  Earle Bruce and John Cooper would have been safe at IU until the day they wanted to retire.  Not at OSU.  Just the same  - Tom Crean would have been safe at OSU for a very long time. - but no way at IU.

So, who will be the next coach at IU?  I double if Steve Alford will go there since he is already at UCLA and IU treated Bobbie Knight so badly.

I am thinking more along the lines of Archie Miller - who OSU would love to recruit if Thad MAtta ever decides to step down.
