Needs to work on his Yoda impersonation.... I got a bit lost, but I appreciate the creativity and info...lol

He’ll still have his nose to the ground and on top of the “scoop”.

Brad Stevens, Head Coach. Jerome Allen, Assistant Coach. Brandon Bailey, Assistant Coach ... Scott Morrison, Assistant Coach. Jamie Young, Assistant Coach ..

This is absolutely awesome! Kudos, to whoever put this together......Well done!

My info was we have talked to the agent for Brad for over a month, we were told what it was going to take to get the deal done, and we’ve done all of that.

I loved "Welcome Back Kotter!" This is how I feel Dolson & all IU fans are feeling. Horshack and his synonymous....."OOOOOOHH, OOOOOHH!" PICK ME!!!!

The only thing keeping me from crapping my pants is because you followed it up with the ever popular, LOL. That saved me.....lol

...."Rabby is saying Brad is deciding".... That's the part that makes me clinch a bit.

Hey, like it or not......If Archie didn't do such a "BANG UP" job these last four years, we are not talking about Brad right now. Such a blessing in disguise! When the "package" is finally delivered, in a weird kind of way we will be thanking Archie,...I guess, right?

....and if it doesn't? Then what? BRAD ********* STEVENS BETTER BE ANNOUNCED BY ____________! lol

I saw this posted on another IU message board, hesitated........., then decided to share. At this point the "cat is almost out of the bag" and we are all just anxiously waiting for a national media link, to some degree. Again, I found it thorough and viable,....don't know how creditable, however, its very encouraging.....if true. Yesterday at 10:27 PM #1 Good evening. I’m new to the forums and had to set up an account at the urging of a friend just to share this so please forgive me. I know my established credibility is zero as of now but hear me out and wait the requisite amount of time for this to come to fruition and I think you’ll appreciate this information. I was asked not to share but this is an anonymous board and it’s too important not to share with Hoosier Nation. I have deep basketball connections in south central Indiana. As it has been told to me, Brad Stevens has been formally offered in the $8 million/year range and this is being funded by private donors. I know, nothing new here. The news here is that Stevens has notified Ainge of his interest and has, in fact, met with IU brass in person in the past week in a clandestine fashion. Ainge is encouraging Stevens to stay but also understands the big business of basketball. Stevens is rumored to being very close to accepting an offer in kind but will not abandon his team until the season is over, which leaves Indiana in a bit of a pickle until late May/June. The prevailing thought here is that Stevens will accept the Indiana job within the week and notify the Celtics and his team and commit to continue to coach them....*unless* they let him walk, which is very possible, even likely. Think Bill Freider/Steve Fisher for Michigan back in the day. Assuming the Celts let him go, this opens up Stevens to Indiana almost immediately and Stevens gets to start his dream job and the mighty rebuild of the Indiana program post haste. The $$$ and the poor performance this year and Stevens’ desire to be closer to his family (dad) in Indiana are the reasons this is happening, I’ve been told. Thanks for listening. I’m 95% sure it goes down like this. It’s not if but when. Last edited: Yesterday at 11:46 PM Reactions:Hoosier009, vesuvius13, ChaChaG and 10 others

That's how you avoid PM requests....."I don’t know"... and .... "before anyone asks."

Dude, No worries! Thanks for all you do for us IU fans.

I will do the same as well. have felt very welcomed here. It’s been super fun interacting with new IU fans.

You must be drinking......such language..lol

Love me some Billy Joel.

Cuban is a very intelligent and savvy businessman. He knows the rules as well as his limitations.

That’s just the world we live in. One good thing going is the Celtics aren’t playing well at all, the team is in disarray and the fans are about to light torches.

....Right? The kind where you have to poop and the restroom’s too far away!

He and Coach Allen will get along real well....

That’s al been running through my head, but I can’t wait to see him guide the team and walking the sideline in IU gear. Most likely a suit and RED tie!!!!

Covering all his bases...The Boston Brass may not be happy with his job as a GM.

True, but IMHO, Trojan Horse is better.....Then finish things up with a "half yard" at the Irish Lion....lol
