But I swear to God if Glass low balled Donovan, that's f@ckin bullish!t. You give that motherf@cker what he wants. IU NEEDS Donovan a hell of a lot more than the other way around I wouldn't be surprised at all if Glass low-balled him. You want to get your coach at the cheapest price possible. He's not going to walk in and offer Donovan $10 million a year at the beginning of negotiations. If Glass refuses to go higher though, then that's not good. Quote

NCHoosier Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I'm convinced everything that transpired this morning was an effort to quiet the "rumors" that are floating regarding BD. Be patient friends. Where there is smoke... RTJ85, ALASKA HOOSIER, HooHooHoo22 and 1 other 4 Quote

cljones1979 Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I find it hard to believe that Glass is stupid enough to try lowballing his #1 priority.Everyone is just assuming he was the #1 priority nobody knows for sureSent from my SM-G935V using BtownBanners mobile app Tom White 1 Quote
seihoosier Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 DeCourcy's article hits it on the head for why we DON'T NEED Alford. The last couple paragraphs Since 1980, 37 NCAA championships have been decided; only five were won by coaches working at their alma maters. Which means 86.5 percent of championship coaches arrived with little or no connection to the college hiring them. It would be an entirely different college basketball world if John Calipari were the coach at Clarion, Mike Krzyzewski were coaching Army and Beilein worked his offensive magic at Wheeling College. This is rather an absurd scenario, of course, but that is the logical extension of hiring a head basketball coach primarily because of where he attended college. But Wheeling would have a hell of a team. Happydaze, sirhoosierlot, AZ Hoosier and 2 others 5 Quote

I.M.O. BD is trying to keep his team united and make a postseason run (as any coach would be doing). He is still under contract with OKC and would not anything disrupting the locker room currently. Maybe I'm over-optimistic, but I'd rather be that then trying to justify the alternative. Edited March 21, 2017 by NCHoosier Tom White 1 Quote

Yeah, that is the only instance of weird personality stuff that people don't want anymore with their coach. Hyperbole is such a fun way to argue a point, why try to represent what other people say when you can make it look like their argument is dumb. Quote
