  1. Or we are going to pay him more money to be closer to family, coach half the games, and have a place to coach for the next 30 years. Nobody will argue that the Boston Celtics organization is more prestigious than the Indiana Basketball program. But there are a lot of factors outside of that. Stevens grew up idolizing Bobby Knight and dreamed of coaching IU. It may not happen but there are a lot of reasons for him to come here that may not meet the eye, at first. don’t be surprised if he doesn’t accept our offer.... bc it’s coming.
  2. It’s Brad Stevens guys. We can shut this thread down.
  3. I would not be pissed if it were Beilein.
  4. Brad Stevens....... Indiana prodigal son.
  5. When he said “While I will not establish a formal search committee...” IT MOVED
  6. I promised myself that I was going to base my level of interest based off of how the university handles this situation. If they decide to keep Archie, they would be signaling to us that they don’t care to have success. If they don’t care enough to have success, I wouldn’t waste my valuable time and energy rooting for them and certainly wouldn’t be spending any of my money so that it could make it’s way into the hands of the university. That may sound dramatic and juvenile but honestly it’s where I’m at. I’m tapped. They bring him back, I’m done for good and I’m certain many more will feel the same way. It would be an absolutely catastrophic decision for the program. I won’t be around to see or hear the blowback but I already feel bad for the players and the student body. They are getting a raw deal.
  7. Illinois is gonna win it all aren’t they? Just feels like we haven’t gotten the last kick in the nuts yet. They look like the best team in the country right now. All cylinders firing. Impressive and depressing all at the same time.
  8. I’d be shocked if Archie wanted to stay in the B1G (Penn St.) considering how it’s absolutely railed him the last 4 years. As long as he’s gone, I’m good. Meanwhile....... this photo has brought me to new iubb related lows.
  9. Once Brad Stevens verbally agrees to terms. I wouldn’t be upset with Musselman though.
  10. He’s a 4 year guy imo.
  11. Illinois looks legit. Curbello gonna torch us for the next 3 years.
  12. We’d have an extra banner or 2 hanging alongside the other 5 of Sampson had continued being the coach. People can say what they want from their moral ivory tower. He was the best coach since knight and what he did at ok or IU doesn’t make him an immoral human, like many IU fans try to make him out to be. I wish we had him back honestly.
  13. Thats an understatement! I completely agree on the chances being better now. I'd even argue that the timing has never been better. Fingers crossed!
  14. Hint #1: His first name rhymes with Glad. Hint #2: Check out my new avatar pic. This is the first call.
  15. Makes sense. Hopefully they give him some autonomy on who he hires, if he's given the ok to make the move.
  16. yikes! If true, that pretty much confirms that the issues run deeper than just the coach.
  17. And the term "Promised Land" has been downgraded from a Natty to just making the tournament.
  18. Amazon Web Services?
  19. Which is unfortunate for him and his players.
  20. I’m ready for it. Will be the most entertainment IUBB has provided me since the Fire Tom Crean thread.
  21. I don’t think many people will show.
