I don’t think it is. That said you always want to check. Just because it’s an IU guy doesn’t mean AAU coaches and High School coaches would like the hire.

Correct and Dolson really cares about the program. He’s swinging for the fences while also talking to others that are interested.

That’s what any smart AD would do.

The day leading up to the announcement everyone was saying Blackmon was going to UK. Kendrick was one of the few that kept saying he was going to IU.

There’s talk that some high profile aau people got contacted by Dolson within the last couple days to see how the new coach would be perceived in the state. My guess is that’s what Kendrick heard but he didn’t want to out the coach by name. I’m guessing that’s why Jim Reamer responded to Bozich in that Twitter exchange with a gif that said “nothing”. AAU guys might be excited but do t want to burn bridges before the new coach gets to town.

Gut feeling is Lander got his info from Kendrick if he was tweeting about the IU coaching job.

No

Lander had a Texas Texh offer too fwiw.

Doubt it

That Donovan post was a joke directed at fpeaugh on rivals because he was leading the Billy train last time with Alber’s.

So did Stevens, Matta, Moser and many more.

He’s always wrong so I’m not surprised.

He should’ve been call #2

There was a round trip flight from Chicago to Bloomington and back yesterday fwiw. That said Albee’s is full of crap.

Billy D all over again.

I hope Goodman gets it first and he’s in such shock someone else like Rabby gets the tweet out first.

I’ve thrown out speculation last night but I don’t know. I’m just basing off of clues that I’ve been told.

I’m starting to trust what the guy on the peegs chat was saying last night. I guess we’ll see when it’s announced but I’m trusting Dolson might have finally don’t this right.

Just because Kendrick and Lander are from Evansville doesn’t mean the new coach is. In fact I highly doubt they are.

I think everyone needs some sleep.

It was posted on here this morning by Indy Sports Partizan or ISP that Dolson has spent the last day or so trying to find more money to make Stevens a larger offer at around 10 million a year as a last ditch effort. 0708 refuted it and said Stevens was done and over with. So yes there’s been conflicting talk on that front.

He’s not in the portal so that wouldn’t be legal.

This is fascinating!

What if.... nah never mind I’m not going to do that.

I don’t think so
