Shouldn't people like that be in private suites or something? Not just out sitting amongst the regulars?

Not necessarily...you want the players to know you're there watching...

I think you are reading that wrong.  If Brownell terminates he owes 20% of remaining compensation — about $3.3 million.  It’s 50% only if Clemson terminated.

I computed as you did. :) I wanted it be higher, so it could eliminate him as a possibility.

Brad Stevens is scouting in Nashville.  Meanwhile, a plane has arrived in Nashville from Bloomington.

That one guy. 

Or, SD has listened to Cig and is negotiating with Byington

Honestly even at the SEC tournament he probably flies under the radar unless they’re sickos like us. Especially SEC where they think a basketball is an over-inflated football.

I gotta go to bed. But I’m also dismayed that RTZ did not reappear. 
 

The Fox Mulder in me thinks he’s been shut down along with all the other people that know Brad is coming. 
 

Just saying that makes me think I need medication.

Yes this is a nothingburger I think. 

RTZ says to watch the flights today. Chris007 gets the tip to keep an eye on one specific plane, which, coincidentally, happens to be heading straight to Nashville. Funny thing is, that's where Brad is, watching SEC games. But honestly, it's probably nothing

Thanks, because you know you’re right.  I do need a break from this.  I’m up all night worrying about this stuff, ya know…and what’s gonna happen if we don’t find a coach in time…and whether we’ll even have a team next season.  Now THAT’S a true nothingburger and possibly a double nb with cheese…right?

I think we all need medication. Xanax maybe? Are there any doctors on this board?

Like my mother used to tell me, I choose to say nothing about this whole thread.

Would be interesting to know what Cig thinks of Mark of their time together!

If you’re not from Indiana or a Celtic fan, you have no idea who he is. Brad Stevens looks like the guy holding a seat for his girlfriend who is the daughter of one of the coaches.

Especially without Celts gear on…

Can’t speak for BS specifically but tournaments are a great way to see a lot of players in a short period with minimal travel. As a bonus the games have clearer stakes than regular season games and the neutral court setting mitigates potential home/road effects, so yes, plenty of executives and scouts are typically at them

I do appreciate that. I've worked in athletics. My curiosity is specific to Brad so as to get excited or not. ; > )

Interesting observation. Why wouldn’t you rep?

I edited this to admit I’m not cool enough to use lingo and promise not to do so in the future.

I wouldn’t make tooooo much of his presence, as suggested by my earlier comment that scouts and execs are fond of tourneys. But I noticed this too.

[steubenhoosier 1,659]

The obvious answer on BS is that he’s there to interview the next GM of IUMBB… Cody Zeller

To not draw attention

Sorry, meant to quote Alistair's comment!
