  1. Well, isn't that special... clearly more interested in trolling us than in endearing himself to us...
  2. And Cody promised and earned his degree...
  3. Not sure that I'd go that far. The man is a legend in his own mind... and nowhere else
  4. Whatever gives him fodder for his mouth... remember, his kind make their money being contrarians and know-it-alls, and stirring the pot.
  5. That's not Indiana's battle to fight. If he's free to coach college, that's the only thing that is germane to this discussion. If the Pacers or Heat or Lakers want him to coach in the NBA after he's done at Indiana, let them pony up and negotiate with Ainge or his successor. Why should Indiana or Dolson or any other person/entity that is NOT the NBA care about who owns his NBA coaching rights?
  6. Don't go anywhere, but that started somewhat last night...
  7. I don't disagree... was just answering the question from @Treesh
  8. I'm sure he does... but what has "coach" Alford done outside of Manchester College? People in hell want ice water, so... we don't always get what we want.
  9. The CAM hire was 11 days after CTC was fired. Similar dynamic there - the Donnovan hype, several decent choices... could come that quickly here... sounds like (from his presser) that Dolson had already started the work, and now it's starting to look like a matter of tying up all the loose ends... as always, YMMV.
  10. Eleven days. Clappy was canned on 03/16/2017. CAM was announced on 03/27/2017.
  11. And in that case, rankings would not matter... and everyone would know... I could live with that!
  12. Might catch on with the CBS/Tru/TBS crew to sit in on a few games as a color guy a la RMK and Clappy ... or not... Sitting on more than TEN large* can ease the stress of not working... *yeah, I get it that it's paid out and not a lump sum
  13. Yes. :) The news will break when it breaks. Sucks to be left hanging in the wind... but I get playing it close to the vest...
  14. Was just thinking what an oxymoron that phrase was... not sure there is such a thing. :D
  15. Ouch. That one hurt. As the truth often does... But you have to believe... Dolson has the stones to at least try... and as Hannibal Smith said "I love it when a plan comes together"!
  16. Help an old guy out and 'splain "LFG". Please/thanks.
  17. ok, I'll play along...
  18. The post that I quoted from @WayneFleekHoosier sure looked like he was building Steven's staff for him.
  19. If you were hired to coach, would you want someone else to pick your staff for you? And probably should not get the cart in front of the horse here...
  20. Unfortunately, we won't know anything until we do. It very well could be several weeks or more before anything is settled, whether it's Stevens or someone else... It's encouraging to hear some of the chatter, but trying to temper it all... remembering 4 years ago and the Billy Donovan crap... Patience...
  21. Agreed... and while the mods may not be enjoying this as much as some of us, at least they aren't busy policing the forums and putting out fires. :D
  22. Yep... we could stick it to the national media... AND we'd have Brad Stevens as our coach. So, where's the down side? :D
  23. ... as has been pointed out previously, the Bob Knight connection was probably not a favorable one for IU... that was right after Knight was fired here and got the gig at TT... he was still quite bitter about Indiana, so that had to throw a lot of shade on the whole Indiana thing for Beard...
  24. Absolutely true... Alford cannot be the choice under any circumstances... talk about not being able to coach a wild turkey to take a dump...
  25. Forget the chicks (for the moment) and focus on Stevens... don't waste your powers. :D
