I am dang glad you're here and hope you stay after we name the next coach.

I love it when people share but if you're going to call me and my friends foolish then I'm going to have a problem. I'm here almost daily I don't just show up during searches.

Who is sitting behind the ND bench? He has been to two games in the last two weeks but could only make one in the first 30 games. Anyway, everything I have posted that I have heard today I could name 6 or 7 other people on here who have heard it too. I won't so they don't take the heat I do but they send me their rumors. Yes, it could be the echo chamber of IU but I know I don't have the same sources as RTZ and a few others. So yes we could be wrong but there is a reason we think what we do. I owned it 4 years ago, just like I will again. I have even said I don't believe it fully myself.

There have been some but would have to look back, off the top of my head Clark Co, Teterboro, Bedford Mass all in Miami together on the morning of Feb 14 Bedford Mass and Clark Co in Teterboro together on Feb 28. One of the time they were all at Marco island together. When I say Clark Co I mean Pfau. Teterboro is where the search firm is and flys out of.

Sister

Sorry, I was a little fired up from being called foolish. Only the Mrs. gets that right, which she uses a lot. But yes Scott has made it known that he wants this wrapped up by the 17th so we have a week to prepare for the portal opening.

The listing I'm talking about does have a horse barn

Ask him if we are still in deep negotiations with Drew like he told me and AP

Come on who's next?

IU-ND playoff football game

No, I have never been told a name because of that. Thank you for sharing what you know though. It is not my SIL specialty and I like to go back and tell her she's wrong anyway. She thinks she's smarter than what she really is :-)

I have heard the 7 million for NIL but have heard a few different amounts as I said 6 for 67 but also 8 for 88

I asked my SIL who is an attorney in town if they would use NDA's? She said for a deal this big it would be bad practice to not use them. I asked what the penalty would be and she said termination and they usually put a percentage on it like 20% of the contract that they would try to litigate.

I have the listing, it's still pending. If the person hasn't signed, it would be bad business to not be vetting other candidates. That was what Dolson was accused of not doing last time.

I thought he was holding out for the Texas job

See you in a few years and by a different name. Most everyone on here has given every coach a legitimate chance. Some knew Archie wasn't the guy from the beginning, some knew sniffed out Woodson. I gave both 3 years before I knew

I try to ask all of those things, you just don't get a lot of answers or things being confirmed. You hear a lot of answers but nothing you can go fact-check if you know what I mean. I will say I have heard 10 years 92 million, I have heard 6 years 67 million, I have heard 8 years 88 million. I have heard they bought a house in the Center Grove district so their daughter could be a part of the girl's soccer team there which I believe was ranked #1, He has a former player who works there so there is some familiarity. That he and Dolson met from Thanksgiving to February figuring out how they wanted to do this and keep it quiet till mid-March. I have many other things but not worth going through them all Is any of it true who knows? But I do know one person who is connected and he hasn't come back on. Have I been wrong? Yes, a lot in the last 10 years. But do I hope Dolson can pull off the grand slam? Yes, which probably clouds my judgment.

As someone very connected told me last week, Be careful of people talking because they don't know anything, if they do know something then they wouldn't be talking if they knew what was good for them due to the NDA's. I remember you getting in some trouble for talking last time. I appreciate you feeling bad for some people. If I'm wrong I'll be here next week to take the heat. If you are right or wrong we won't see you again till the next search. BS is 1A BM is 1B I'll stick to it.

I don't like to speak in names. I'm still talking about the same.

I'm trying to keep it quiet but no one is going along with the plan

Heck I don't know what's going on at IU let alone at Iowa

Dolson has his search and the firm has theirs. Those are the two end results

I think your friend is possibly correct. I have received that info from two other people I trust. Now on the reverse side Trilly said today that McCollum people are just not sitting down to go over IU and Iowa stuff to see which way he wants to go. So no done deal there. I'm still being told there is a big fish out there.

I've told everyone to make sure nothing happens till this afternoon at the earliest. So go get some work done
