    I am fine in waiting but would be great if something was announced privately to the players.  I know you can't trust young guys to not say something on social media

    If Stevens to IU is actually legit he really wants to finish the NBA season, so be it...I’m fine with it. We just need to know the direction so players and fans aren’t left guessing...

    I believe we knew we could get Brad by talking to him and his wife

    I didn’t say something isn’t signed, I’m led to believe that there is but don’t want to lead anyone on. I know there was a meeting, everyone left happy,  2 hours later we hear Masshole. So I don’t know for sure.

    Safe to say Dolson is holding out hope for Brad? At some point he will have to move on.

    Agreed but he's probably taken Loyola as far as they can go. 
    If he wants to win a NC, he needs to leave. I just don't think we're in a position to be the school that takes a risk on him.

    Look guys ......If the date “3/27” that gurubackup, on Peegs, has been so persistent about IS true, then Scott Dolson is an absolute genius!!!!
    3/27 1971 marked the day news broke that IU was going to hire a very young Bob Knight from Army. Bob was officially hired the next day, March 28th, 1971. That hire was the beginning of a story book era at IU.
    Fast forward to today, 3/27 2021,...if all this is true and the stars have aligned Scott Dolson has cleverly chosen this date for obvious reasons. IMO, “if true”, long time IU man and newly crowned A.D., Scott Dolson will usher in new IU Coach, Brad Stevens. A young man born, bred, in Indiana. That very same state is also where he played HS and college ball and later coached his first college team. This will significantly mark the beginning of a new story book era. Far fetched? Yes, but why not dream? This has been Scott Dolson’s dream all along ...... The rest is history.

    Okay, I wasn’t going to post this because it’s one of those my friend who’s friend posts that everyone rips apart, but here it goes.
    March 18, I got a text from a friend of mine who is also an IUBB fan. I asked if he’d heard the news that we could possibly get Stevens. He said he had lunch with a friend of his a few weeks ago. Which was before Archie was ever fired. That friend of his was a college roommate with someone (I cannot say their job title) that would know. His friend told him that Archie was gone and that Stevens was going to be the new coach. In fact, he said he’s definitely coming.
    After Stevens’ masshole presser I text him that things weren’t looking very promising. He said he wasn’t sure what was going on because he thought it was a done deal. All I know is that my friend is as honest and trustworthy as they come and would not pass along anything he thought to be false.

    It's not that we don't care, dude. It's your approach. You have this "I'm right, everyone else is wrong. If you don't believe me, you're dumb" attitude and it makes you look like, excuse my language, a pompous *******. 
    I think you'll find 99.99% on here appreciate any inside info (see Chris, Yeagley, 0708, etc). Just not the way you minimize everyone else's and try to maximize yours. It's up to each person to believe it or not - we don't need you to do that for us.
