LIHoosier Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Wait, so we're stuck between believing Albers or a pUKe grad? FloridaHoosierGirl, IUsafety, Double Down and 1 other 4 Quote
HooHooHoo22 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Sources close to Donovan says he doesn't even know where Indiana is. He also wasn't aware that Indiana university had a basketball team Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Double Down and thebigweave 2 Quote

HooHooHoo22 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 He probably just has no sources so nobody has told him lol Lol he was like "well if everyone can make up rumors, I might as well do it to" Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Donovan turn an IU mug around so you can't see it and Brett asks him "Has IU even contacted you, I see all these rumors about it" Sarcastically Donovan responds "No, that would never happen" Crimson and Cream, IUsafety, NCHoosier and 3 others 6 Quote
Yogi'sBicep Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 Pap, Billy D a viable option? *legitmate would be a better word. Quote
rebelhoosier848891 Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 If there were 2 finalists maybe there is now 1. He can change his mind but Alford is saying he is 100 percent staying at UCLA. Come on IU schedule the presser already--we want Billy D!Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Double Down and Crimson and Cream 2 Quote
Alford Bailey Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 11 hours ago, Double Down said: If Justin is lying, I'm thinking the scene in Full Metal Jacket with pillow cases and soap bars is in order. I want BD badly. I just can't believe Justin though. He was reporting Alford working on a deal IU a little over a week ago. He has no scruples. if he is lying he needs run out of town for good Quote
Walking Boot of Doom Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 That's what the OKC beat writer is going to put his rep on? That Donovan hasn't even been CONTACTED about the Indiana job? There is one person who should have gotten a call before Billy, and we're not that lucky... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app WayneFleekHoosier 1 Quote
Walking Boot of Doom Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 if he is lying he needs run out of town for goodAlbers isn't lying. He wouldn't put his entire reputation on the line as he's trying to build his own brand/credibility. Now, his sources may be completely wrong, but he clearly has a serious reason to believe Donovan was in Bloomington. The long term value of his credibility as a journalist is worth far more than what he generated in click throughs on that article. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
Hoosier Guy Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 I think he was in Bloomington. Billy Donovan is gonna lead IU back to greatness Quote
JSHoosier Posted March 25, 2017 Posted March 25, 2017 We can't prove he was in Bloomington, but OKC reporters haven't proven he didn't fly in Thursday night and back sometime Friday Morning. Quote

While the internet was circulating frenzied rumors connecting Billy Donovan to Indiana on Friday, the Oklahoma City Thunder coach was indeed conducting meetings inside a practice facility. Just not the one in Bloomington.
