Wide of the mark? Good, I don’t want Matta. 

I didn’t really want Matta either but I’d have rather had him than Beilein.

Dolson running the old Canary Trap?

[Iubravos 327]

Musselman is the answer.  I hope Arkansas loses this weekend and we go hard for him.  He may not be a big name for all but will have all the fans backing him in a year.  He is a really good coach and will recruit well too.

This is what I’m thinking.

Also who is John Rothchild or did people think it was John Rothstein of CBS reporting this.  The first I looked at this I thought it was Rothstein who is a reparable journalist but looked again at the name.

I am preparing for a Beilein hire now

I highly doubt somebody in my graduation class (2020 it says it in his bio) has any sort of source on this. Also mentions that he thinks Trayce is a late first round pick and as much as I love Trayce as a player I have to disagree with that.

I'm at the point where I'd be happy with a Beilein hire. 

At this point, I almost just want a coach.

AND (you people are missing this point in his tweet) he inaccurately reports Matta failed a physical. It's coming out that is NOT the case. I wouldn't listen to him.

I’m expecting Altman’s name to be the next big rumor.

Why do I have the sinking feeling this ends with us getting Dwight Schrute?  I don't mean Crean, I mean actually Dwight Schrute?

Still and upgrade from Archie.  :)

Osterman looks pretty dumb here IMO for releasing info just to be the first one to release jt and immediately getting multiple reports his info never happened.

But, unfortunately, that’s the world we live in. No one cares about facts just the like button (ps hit the like button on my post please, it’s what drives me)

All of these rumors to happen for Boston to trade for a coach on Wednesday and Stevens get announced.......wouldn't that be something? Haha

Arkansas is a basketball school. First Sweet 16 in years. They will not let that man leave. The fans love him.

It would be deflating if we were already at Matta and Beilein. It would be crushing if it got to any of the IU names. 

Both of them would be in my top 5 of realistic candidates unless you really believe we could get Stevens and Bennett.

Wasn't Osterman that released it first. He corrected what rivals reported.

If he is the hire then I hope he brings that Smith kid with him. He is a stud and could really help this IU roster.

Let's all just keep the faith that Dolson is smarter than some of us are giving him credit for. I personally don't mind him taking his time. Means he is doing his research and not just going with who is available or for the flavor of the month.

I believe he will want the IU chance over Arkansas.   If not, then we have fallen a longgggg way.

He never released the info first though? He’s reporting what Scott told him.

Jonathan Rothschild has a rousing 625 followers.  His Twitter bio says he's a writer for Sports Illustrated; graduated from the Kelley School in 2020 and lives in NY.  He's also the infamous individual who asked Archie about load management in a post-game media meeting.

Hard to believe he truly has any reliable insider info.  Pay no attention to the man behind the  Twitter account.
