Dolson may end up being the biggest legend out of all of this.  I seriously can’t believe I just typed that, but I’m glad I did!!! 

His career will be defined by this.

If he hires Mike Woodson.. well.

If he gets Brad Stevens... then..

I’m scared that if it’s not Stevens, we’ll all go to Hot Topic and go Goth.  But we’ll do it together. 

I might peg my pant legs and get a mullet perm.....

So he is probably an Idniana Hoosiers basketball fan.

Hmmm. My outlandish idea in post 8464 may not be too far off if this is the case. Lol

Update from my original comments - strictly based on what I know and things I’ve heard: 

The VP of “Charitable Giving” at Cook, who regularly works with Carl Cook and Steve Ferguson on how money should be spent and what organizations they should give to, etc. is close friends with Dolson, and has close ties to my family. This is why we think Dolson’s specifically used the wording “private philanthropic funding”. Carl wanted to use this as a major tax write off and this statement was maybe his way to ensure that he could.  

I think Dolson has been keeping the Cook family backing in his back pocket for the day he became athletic director. As soon as he took the helm - he knew he was going to change things and he knew who he was going to to do it.

I think this can be reaffirmed by his ability to move money around so quickly. A lot of trust in him in the Cook community. 

Dolson is very much like a lot of [old] IU fans, and he wanted better so (it is rumored) he started making feeler calls as soon as he became athletic director (before this season), and actually fired Archie last Thursday after they lost in the tournament.

The team had no idea, Archie was supposed to keep quiet, and it actually leaked from Archie’s side that he was fired  - I think he may lose money because of it. Therefore, they would have waited to X point in time to make the announcement rather than have all the cofuffle this week.  

Maybe the big name that Scott went for (to get that kinda money from Carl Cook) wasn’t Brad. But I feel like it would still have to be a big name who put out a higher level of commitment than a “maybe” when Scott went to get money. Otherwise, what was the point in firing Archie and raising the money to do it?

I mean if you’re a true [old] iu guy like Scott, you know there’s only 1 person you have to go get to make the entire fan base happy, so why not have a plan in place to get the guy a year in advance? And like it’s rumored,  he clearly did have a plan! 
 

I could be entirely wrong about this, but this is all my best guess based on what I know so far.

Well, he is definitely using this for clout

EDIT: I think he has information about Brad Stevens and IU, but is with holding it for more following on his page. Don’t blame him at all for it

I enjoy reading your thoughts on the other site and am glad to see you here. It's really not a competition since we are all supporters of IU basketball. As far as I'm concerned, we are all family.

Listen he can have the clout if he’s got details that impress Chris. I’ll just unfollow him when it’s over.

I will be posting this every night until a new coach is announced

Been checking Reddit and both of their Insiders have been eerily quiet

[FritzIam4IU]

So...did anybody get any work done the last three days?

Others have mentioned it but It is really refreshing seeing all the IU fans coming together and excited for a change.
