No thanks. I don't him to have anything to do with Flyer basketball ever again.

Can't speak for JimBo, but how I interpret that is this: IF our HC position became available, for whatever reason (AG leaves, gets fired, retires, wins Powerball, etc.), that he would take back Archie in a heartbeat. I probably would too, regardless of how things at IU turnout for him (short of sanctions, ethical shortcomings or lack of moral compass issues).
I'm not sure JimBo is suggesting that he would take Archie back to replace AG sight unseen and regardless of where AG is in the progression of this program. THAT, I wouldn't agree with. For example, IU loses the rest of their games, Langford declares and Archie gets canned (highly unlikely), I don't think I'd support bringing Archie back to replace AG. AG is on the right track, as is this program.
