JSHoosier Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 2 minutes ago, Tom White said: He would only risk alienating the small fraction of the fan base that read these boards. Compared to the size of the overall base, that is a small number. People can take the rumors they read on these boards and tell people not on the boards. Poster A sees the threads and sees posters people trusts and tells person B that it's rumored IU is interested in Donovan, person B could tell person C. People do talk and things can very easily spread. Quote
Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 Brian Snow just tweeted that Missouri has been reaching out to coaches for a month now and that some have already said not interested. Missouri has made no formal announcements and Anderson just made an offer to a kid a week ago. Calm down everyone on the Crean still recruiting and no word being mentioned of him gone yet train. This leaked cause season is over. We should hear a lot more in the coming days.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

sierracoach Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 it's also possible that the Donovan rumors are an "accidental" smokescreen that Glass et al. did not start, but are perfectly willing to let proceed while they go after their "true" candidates. I've been told Glass REALLY thinks highly of Tony Bennett, FWIW. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

TetKale Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 I think the whole issue is trying to let CTC find a spot so he can 'resign' vs. Fred doing a 'he gone' press conference. Every day of silence from Glass just makes that clearer and clearer IMO. All of the various boards are calling for a new coach and even many of the nationally recognized sportswriters are suggesting it's time for both sides to move on. If CTC were coming back at the very least Glass would issue a press release to the effect that negotiations for a contract extension were in the works and attempt to stop the rumors. I also believe there is a date etched in stone for CTC to either have a new job or we get the 'he gone' press conference. Furthermore, I believe that Fred already has the replacement lined up and the new coach will be announced within 48 hours of CTC's resignation or termination. Is it Donovan? I have absolutely no idea but if it's not, the news will be tantamount to:If the rumor is true that a replacement has been selected, wouldn't it have to be Donovan or Stevens? (Or an out of work coach?) I wouldn't think coaches would have these conversations as they gear up for conference and national tournaments ...Sent from my XT1650 using BtownBanners mobile app ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

They trust 0708 over there and he's said he doesn't think the guy is trolling, but can't say the guy is legit either. Personally, if I had inside information I wouldn't put 'insider' in my name. And really all 0708 is saying is that Crean is gone, and that Donovan is willing to listen. Nothing more than that. ALASKA HOOSIER, Milldawg12 and Feathery 3 Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted March 5, 2017 Posted March 5, 2017 Zagsblog: According to Goodman, Missouri has entrusted Dan Parker & Associates with searching for Anderson’s replacement. A couple of Pac-12 coaches, Cal’s Cuonzo Martin and Washington’s Lorenzo Romar, have already been linked to the opening. Indiana’s Tom Crean is another potential candidate.

Popular Post Hoosierfan2017 Posted March 5, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 5, 2017 Missouri fans, it's not often you get the chance to snag a coach with two Big 10 titles in four years, and three sweet 16s in a five year span. Look no further than Victor Oladipo to see what he can do with player development. Buy now while supplies last! Btownclouds, pumpfake, Hoosier DaDa and 12 others 15 Quote
