Possibly not but Chris mentioned him as a Dir. of bball ops candidate so...

Take the tweet in conjunction w/Chris’s mention that we should thank Mr. Ned Pfau of Pfau golf course naming rights. Not sure the two connect but boy howdy

I feel good about my ability to know who to trust but just think it’s a bad look to act like you’ve got sources. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Agreed, and I’m not a mod like Stuhoo, but if you’re posting an opinion, just say so. Don’t pass your hungry gut’s feeling off as insider info

If the 3 pm thing has legs it was never going to be a presser. Maybe an announcement. If it’s true and I had to guess it might be an agreed-upon time for either side to filter anything out to media sources off the record.

If it’s from yesterday I believe he said something like “Brad will coach here for awhile” which is irrefutable and could be 24 hours or 24 years.

I don’t doubt Goodman’s sources are telling him that but even having to address it looks like CYA for him in case he was wrong.

Saw this but that timing is weird to me. If it’s gonna happen, why delay? And if not, he’s gonna have to shoot it down again repeatedly.

Yeah some motivation to get it done I’d say.

Tend to agree the C’s wouldn’t want him to finish the year if he’d agreed to another job. All signs indicate his superiors there love him and would love to keep him. That also makes me think they’d want an amicable exit for everyone’s sake, so maybe there’s a “need a new voice” parting of ways and he takes the IU job. Thunder did something similar for Billy Donovan after last season. They love him but figured they were going to tank for a bit and his contract was up. They let him go but everyone was on good terms. IIRC he and Sam Presti reminisced over drinks in Presti’s office.

Would guess 1. it’s not new and 2. They’re probably following Stevens too

Sounds like broadly speaking, 7-10 years at $7-8M/year

No inside knowledge here but probably some combo of: -leaving C’s as well as he can -relocating mid-pandemic with family -buying/selling houses -kids in new schools after finishing this year -wrapping up other personal/social responsibilities

Yeah at this point, no offense to Titus, I’m just waiting on the Woj/Shams/whoever breaking news tweet and don’t care much what other stuff is said. Except by our insiders.

Are we gonna get a woj bomb right before halftime of MSU/UCLA or tomorrow as the second game tips or what?

It’s likely senior AD staff or univ. presidents or boosters coming in for the game

Gonna faint or float to the ceiling

He recruited Cody Zeller. Obviously he stayed two years, but could’ve left after 1.

I think ISP is stealing Chris’s info for clout

Wonder if the C’s had the day off and will learn tomorrow at shootaround

Oh I agree! I think if they really wanted they could make it annoying to leave, but they couldn’t really prevent it.

Do you mean can’t imagine he’s not?

It really DOES feel like the calm before the storm. Need Wyc and Ainge to let our guy go and get on with our lives

Not sure there’s a buyout per se but it could help the C’s decide not to haggle, see 0708’s post earlier about contract terms
