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

If IU has to compensate the C’s to get Stevens out of his contract, it would help explain what Dolson meant in his presser when he said he had a second donor lined up for transition costs related to the new hire.

Yes, loosely.

Guessing this is a joke

Also, at the time he might’ve thought: we’ll make the tourney this year and we have no recruiting juice, I can wait until the C’s season is done and make a shocking change this summer. But the losing streak forced the timeline up, and if you’re Stevens, you want to come home, who knows how long you’ll still be in Boston after this year no matter what...

You know more than me, but the trade deadline is in a week — I wonder if he’d rather just move on, raise up an assistant, and focus on trying to improve the team

This is two factual statements: 1. They did sign him to an extension last year, and 2. “awhile” could be hours, days, years

This is the type of arrangement that allows NBA/NFL/MLB coaches to be traded for draft picks etc. It also prevents him from “quitting to coach a college team” and then taking the Lakers job a week later because whoops I left my contract They won’t want to keep him if he wants to leave but it’s something to negotiate around. Maybe they don’t own his coaching rights as a result of the split BUT he agrees he won’t coach in the NBA for ## years under $ penalty or something.

Just a guess but I actually DO think we may here something today. Celtics are off before a back-to-back Fri/Sat, tourney starts tonight so you’d get lots of coverage...

Stevens still has to tell his team or else it would’ve leaked, I doubt he’s flying to IN that early today.

The flights are curious but were not a factor in the big leaks from 007 and 0708. If the flights changed...don’t sweat it.

Pretty sure the only theoretically dependable source for Donovan was Albers, who promptly left journalism. Obviously message board posters are different but when has @Chris007 been wrong? (I’m sure @IUwins0708 is solid, too but I don’t have the track record with him.)

Yeah how can I sleep?

Listen he can have the clout if he’s got details that impress Chris. I’ll just unfollow him when it’s over.

Looks like he wore 11 as a Bull

AJ wore 25

Yeah this is more interesting than...some of the other stuff folks are getting excited about
