The Bates family is exceptionally proud of Tamar and this tweet from his father captioned:  Our new home.  

That’s EXACTLY what it means.
I am longing for the days when a road team comes to Assembly Hall already expecting to lose.
I need to see other teams’ fans complaining about the ‘Hall of Calls’ because the refs are intimidated.
I want to see us run run run.
I want to see us foul hard and bring in fresh, tough bodies when we do.
I want to see a defensive feeding frenzy.
I want to see the other team’s coach T’d up out of pure frustration.
I want the bottom of the B1G to be steamrolled, and the top to be worried.
When we lose games, I never want us to be sad or level headed afterwards. I want us to be angry. Not just the fans—the players and the coaches. I want them to be completely pissed. I want our team to hate losing more than they love winning.
For other teams? “It’s not gon be sweet.”
 

Loved me some Jadlow full court press break back in my day.

No matter your feelings, Coach Woodson absolutely deserves a chance and we should support him 100%! I’m not thrilled, but I’ve always stated I would support any hire that IU makes because they deserve every fans support!
Can’t wait to see how this unfolds, and it would be incredible to have one of our own lead us back to being elite once again?! 
Go IU and Coach Woodson!

I’d like to know where you’re getting your information that makes you feel confident in calling Chris’ information false. Because I know where his information came from. And it’s far from false. 
If you feel like comparing sources you can PM me, but if you’re not blood-related to someone directly involved and ready for me to confirm it then whatever information you think you have is not strong enough to discredit anything Chris has shared. 

If I had to guess...
The admin reached out about any possible interest. Interest was tentative. As things heated up and interest was further reciprocated, the BS camp said, in order for this to happen, we would need A, B, C, and D. Behind the scenes, the admin worked and got everything out together. The entire time, deniability was key and this the non answer the first time. When Indiana presented the requested A, B, C, and D to BS, he pontificated and decided nah. Whether that involved BS telling Ainge is unsure.
 
I would assume sources and boosters and the admin were of the understanding that providing a contract with A-D would lead to a yes, it actually only lead to serious consideration from BS.
The press conference after his decision was most likely a joint discussion with Ainge where BS tried to score some points with his base and close down the discussion. 
 
anyway that’s my guess. Ultimately a misunderstanding. We secured everything requested by the two parties but ultimately the NBA is too attractive to turn down. Also the owner is behind him. Ainge gets cut before he does unless all the players band together to call him an idiot which is unlikely. 

This....a thousand times this. All of the posts that we were given by people with information were not owed to you, me, or anybody else. They didn't have to share any info they were given and after the reaction from some of you, I bet they probably wished they didn't. I appreciate every bit of info and it makes these boards so much more fun to read. 

Or maybe IU was lead to believe Brad was really coming.  I’m telling you, I don’t mind being wrong but when everyone else is as clueless as to what went wrong as I am that are really connected something strange had to happen.  We will probably never know the full story.

I’m confused too. Why did the planes meet in Boco? Did they want to tell us no to our face? Why did I get a good message about the family paying the salary. Just don’t get a lot of it. But we’ll get someone good. I believe in Dolson 

I live in Richmond and am in C-Ville 3 times a week for work. It's a beautiful campus. Honestly think it's cooler than Bloomington. And I LOOOVE me some Bloomington. Tucked right into the mountains.
