Does that mean there are 20 pages worth of hidden posts in this thread?

If you put all the hidden posts together you uncover a secret message that identifies our next coach.

Kinda funny we’re fighting for Iowa with two coaches from there but we can’t even get our own in Dusty to come back home :(

Maybe the Iowa AD doesn’t have fools interfering and is free to do the job?

Took over a bad West Virginia team. Completely gutted the roster. Was picked to finish at or near the bottom of the B12. Beat Gonzaga and Arizona in the Bahamas (lost to Louisville in OT to go to finals). Far exceeded year 1 expectations despite losing his best player early in the season and was snubbed a tourney bid this year. This all after a great run at Drake for several seasons.

DeVries is more enticing to me over someone like McCollum because I believe he’s got a roster he can bring that can win out of the gate. Imperative that whoever coaches IU next year win and ride that momentum or it’s going to be a long 3-4 years.

A tale as old as time:

Agent wants his coach paid more money. IU is in the middle of a search. Let it leak to everyone at the same time that IU is "serious" about his guy. Guy gets more money somewhere.

Trilly and I don't always agree but we agreed earlier tonight that the DeVries stuff feels VERY agent driven

Look at us go. Getting all of these coaches raises. We deserve a good coach just for how giving we are

Especially when a Catfish says Wright is confirmed. And if you can’t trust a catfish, life ain’t worth living.

Does feel agent driven but it’s not like Iowa can print more money haha

Someone sell me on this devries if it has to be him. He had basically a duplicate season to woodson this year

Duplicate season without the talent and with his best player out.  

[Jeff Flabjohns 2,473]

If it’s Brad Stevens why wasn’t it announced today? 
It’s definitely somebody still coaching

[jefftheref 183]

I have been fixing plumbing issues today and haven't able to keep up with what has being posted. Is Stevens out of the picture, and if so who is the rumored new coach.

Thank you in advance if someone brings me up to date.

But if IU isn't actually going to hire him, it doesn't matter. He can probably get a few more dollars and still get the job he wanted in the end.
