Stalkerish maybe?

Uh no. Just a full service app for any out of work or underemployed BTBer's.

FWIW.

The janitor and I spent a whole season with PMs. It was so cool. He stopped that 1.5 seasons ago and has been quiet. He broke so many things to me. He would later break almost all those things to the board in general.

He was very confident IU was "looking" at options 2 seasons ago. I don't recall any promises but the "Alabama" rumors and Brad Stevens rumors were partly discussed by BB4IU. He made it sound like IU was willing to pay big money.

He seems more sure and more public this time around for certain. But he was thinking it could have happened 2 years ago as well.

I asked 708 if he knew whether we had some talks 2 years ago and he did it think we had. I could not remember who shared this last time but your post reminded me - the Janitor.

I know one of the low level assistant basketball coaches that worked for IU during that time.  He thought Crean was going to Alabama.  Mentioned Crean had talked to Saban about Alabama as they had mutual contacts from their time as Mich St.

So if these talks have been going on for some time, I wonder how much of it is why our team has struggled so much during the back half or 2/3s of the season? No matter how good their intentions are/were, it has to effect everyone's spirit even if they are still putting it to the time in the gym. I'm sure the boys would take a grenade for coach.

Well, living up there, you would likely know better than I would. It was just always my impression. Can't figure out how you would breed a dog for -30 degrees though.

Eskimos did the breeding

I'd say it has had zero effect on our season. More so I'd say our season has had more of an impact on those talks happening.

Since he has gone underground and is in deep deep hiding his email service probably isn't the best. Or has the janitor been Fred Glass all along.

I would argue that there's been very little, if any, effect on this year's struggles as most of this year's problems, i.e., TO's and poor defense are repetitive problems.

Also, with but few exceptions under CTC our team has historically faltered greatly towards the end of the regular season and limped into the BTT and we now have an 11-19 record in the BTT.  A statistic further reinforced by the fact we have been bounced out of the event nine times by a team seeded worse.  In those nine games, Indiana's average seed is 3.4 and the average seed of who beat them is 7.1!

Yeah whatever. I just think its funny people put so much trust in a guy none of us have ever met. It's an internet message board rumor for crying out loud. Did he call the Sampson and crean hires? I doubt it.

We will know how this ends, one way or another, in due time. If it turns out to be nothing but hot air, then we can all stand up and yell - "The Emperor Has No Clothes!"

Well unfortunately twitter much like this board wasn't around when Sampson and Crean were hired. If it were, Sampson probably doesn't get fired at the time. The reason people put trust in the guy is due to the things he actually did call. You don't have to believe him, but why keep trolling everyone that does? They have been here longer than a couple of months to actually know what he has brought so far. Plus, the most vocal "insiders" have been at 247.
