I used “accepted” liberally, I should have said they were in agreement on the terms. As far as what the further discussion/topic was that caused him to pull out, I was told that they (my guy) wasn’t going to disperse that info to anyone but in due time it would probably become known. Has nothing to do with his health or a physical though. 

edit: separate “source” than the guy who told me to keep an eye on the trade deadline. 

There was never an agreement. Period. He said no. There was further effort by IU. He thought more and said no again. That was it.

I’d like to believe that the betting odds were changed because of the guy saying to watch the trade deadline

How much, if at all, did Archie play into this? Was there feedback there that influenced the decision?

I don’t have any reason to believe that angle played any role.

Matta wanted the job so bad that he accepted it and then turned it down. No physical was ever given or asked for. 

I thought it was Brad Stevens who did that lol

That’s to bad. I like Thad compared to some of the other possibilities.

For what it’s worth, what Goodman said about how the Matta process went down on his podcast with Hummel is dead on. I know Goodman drives us all nuts (me included), but what he said is consistent with everything I’ve gotten (which is coming from two people who don’t know each other). And this makes sense because Goodman spoke to the guy himself, in person, Monday night.

What did Goodman say, if you don’t mind repeating

Just went back to look, and no longer there. I click on all sports, then basketball, then ncaa and then there was a tab under futures or something but it said “NCAAB Specials”. But not there anymore.

It took me over 10-15 to find it myself. I literally went back to retrace my steps just now to answer your post properly but now it’s not there.

@Chris007 backalleyguru in the peegs chat is saying 3/27/21 at noon. He’s gotten a little more specific on his time now.

Yeah, just guessed that there was heavy interest before the media had come out with it and anyone here was talking about it.

Honestly if it were any other site I might give it a tiny little grain of possibility, but coming from that board I’d say 0%.

Basically, they approached him, he listened, he was intrigued by the idea, but ultimately decided IU is not the place for him. The physical never happened and that’s just not something that happens. Just BS.
