I am optimistic this is Scott's call and I believe in Scott.  He can deliver another good hire for us!

Just a waiting game at this point…and hoping for a Dolson grand slam to bring our man home…I hope lol

I don’t think there is as much support for Stevens as some here believe. Our man should be a college basketball coach

If it’s Brad we should know in a couple weeks. That’s the good thing about Woodson’s fate being known. Nothing to stop Brad from being pursued now.

Looking forward to getting a better idea, if that’s possible (big if) of who’s really in play. 

Time to start really watching the possibly available mid-major and high major coach talk

Brad coming home easily. I know most don’t believe this but Scott started cultivating this relationship with Brad last March. Doesn’t mean we’ll get him but letting him handle this gives us a really good chance.

Interested to hear more about this, and how the relationship and approach is different than 4 years ago.

But he’s not. He’s a Celtic and hasn’t coached a college game (or recruited) in 12 years. Imo, it’s just a re-hashed wishy hope for a long-gone coach that aint happening

Don’t know who the new coach will be or how soon he’ll be announced.

What I do know is… there will be a process!

Appreciate it! I didn’t mean to be hostile if that’s how I came off. I am open to other options but he is choice 1 2 3 4 and 5 for me. After that we can call Dusty or whoever else may be involved. Mark Few wouldn’t be a bad consolation prize either.

Here's to hoping the new Celtics owner hates people from Indiana and tells Brad to kick rocks!

Support from who?

Remember when Stevens called into local Boston sports radio show saying he’s not interested in the Indiana job but was flattered?

That was a horrible day.

Those people are what we like to call “wrong”.

And that's why it is so painful to have such a horrible coach on the sidelines right now. 

What the program could be vs what it is right now.

Scott asked him last March if he was ready. He said not until they won the championship or had to break up the team. They won.

Just kept talking to him, his family, his dad who played football at IU. Stayed in touch as a friend. Then picked back up the conversation around Thanksgiving all the way up to now. He wanted some assurances about NIL, which we gave. Plus a 10 year deal means their set up for future.

I just hope that those in charge of the hiring process are more concerned with finding a great coach and realize we need a coach not a Reverend or a choir boy! Of course if he is a great coach and a choir boy, I have no problem with that!
