He said marquee.

Correct.

I think part of him probably really wants to get back into coaching and the IU job is probably a perfect fit. However, he’s getting paid millions of dollars for a cushy office job with very little pressure where he simply has to sit in an office all day, make phone calls, and go watch basketball games. He likely knows he might be happier here but at the same time what if it doesn’t go as planned. He could be making a big mistake. I think he’s just very comfortable where he’s at and that’s why he won’t do it.

Nonsense. She’d be the most popular student at BSouth day one. And she could stay in Bloomington and not have to move again in 2 years. If Brad really wanted the job that wouldn’t be a blip on the radar I assure you.

If he actually comes back asking for more time you tell him to take a hike. He’s had all the time in the world. Dolson absolutely can’t get played again.

Great list minus McCollum.

He always goes by Coach Sam Story. Does he even coach basketball? I swear I heard he was a girls lacrosse coach. What are his connections if any?

That’s likely correct unfortunately.

Very possible that Dolson does have his guy and that Dusty was never the #2.

No one really knows a damn thing. The only real certainty is that we were never getting Stevens. No one should be surprised with any other possibility. Kind of fun actually.

It was a reward for a nice season and Dusty was never going anywhere. He doesn’t want a fishbowl job. It’s better for all that he stays at UM. Not a good fit here imo.

Butler grad though and lived in Indiana for over 20 years. Not much different than Brad.

I don’t see her signing off on Beard no matter what. He’s the guy we need to get imo.

It’s not that I don’t trust Dolson. It’s the BOT and Whitten that has to sign off on the hire that worries me.

He used to post on HSN I believe then left after the Brad and BillyD to IU assurances fell through. I think anyway.

He’ll be announced as our coach the same day Haralson commits to IU. Any day now.

Would be nice to land a coach that recently turned down UK.

Jim Coyle.

He can recruit that's for sure. He landed 3 of the top 33 players in the Rivals 150 for 2024 and that's at Baylor. I've always thought he's a slightly above average coach but an elite recruiter. We could do a ton worse.

I just can’t see any scenario whatsoever where he has already agreed to take the job but hasn’t informed the Celtics. He would burn so many bridges. And no, I’m not saying IU should’ve announced anything by now. I would definitely expect something from the Celtics side.

Coyle could definitely be wrong of course.

Because there is nothing stopping Brad from leaving the Celtics today, start putting together a staff, and begin scouting for the portal. There’s no reason not to and zero reason for the Celtics to want him to stick around if he’s already leaving. Guys like Drew, Beard, McCollum, etc still have teams to coach and are going dancing. Night and day scenario.

Would Dolson be talking with AAU coaches to see how much the Hanner Perea thing would impact Drew’s recruiting?
