Stevens case maybe different, but I always go back to thinking about Saban saying he didn’t want to go back to College Football to coach Alabama.

Yeah, Saban publicly said he won't be the Alabama coach.

Not going from pro to college, but Calipari said Memphis is where he wanted to be before going to pUKe.

My thing with Stevens is IF he has supposed interest in returning to college, it seemed wishy washy even before Isaac relayed the most recent Stevens update. How long would he really be interested in coaching if he would decide to adventure in Bloomington? If he's here 3 seasons then realizes he doesn't really have the passion for it he anticipated, then where are we? No, he doesn't have to be here 25 years, but a decade would be nice.

Wouldn’t mind if Michigan locked Dusty up. We can do better

Not necessarily. Brohm bolted for UoL and most people understood, pretty much the same situation in my eyes. A dream job is a dream job no matter what. 

To be fair, I’d bolt from Purdue at the first chance I got too.

Mole hunt. Dolson leaks info to the board that Stevens isn’t coming. Info leaks. Dolson knows the board isn’t trustworthy and who the leaker is.  Stevens really coming all along. I’ve seen Mission Impossible!

If the rumored money for Stevens is available for other coaches, maybe, it would open up more possibilities.

I've noticed from reading the Peegs board that when someone usually gives good info they get made fun of because no one believes it and Rabby doesn't back them up

I was a long time Peegs premie member and can confirm..this board is so much better!

He has a shelf life of about 5 or 6 years before he moves on to the next spot.   

Re: Buzz, yes, but wonder what the master plan is. End up at IU/MSU/KU/UCLA/other blue blood and only stay 5 or 6 voluntarily? Linda assume he’d stick and stay wherever he could be at a perennial contender and A&M is top 10 right now.

Any other insiders hear something similar? @ap2345, @JerryYeagley23, @RoadToZion? (I know @Chris007 will respond in time...didn't want to leave you out!)

No

*beard/drew/oates. I do not get the love for Dusty. He is an ok fall back plan. But you have a chance to get a top 5 coach in the country. Go get him.

Those aren’t top 5 coaches.  I would rather have Todd golden than any of the three.

If you have not done so already and wouldn't mind, please head over to the Poll thread and answer the poll questions.  Thank you in advance!  Also, thank you to those who have voted already.

I think it's safe to assume that if we haven't heard anything by September, that Scott is still working on Brad.

I disagree. My inbox is always open if this new poster wants to share sources and info.

That’s not the most unrealistic thing that I’ve read on this board today lol

The rollercoaster of emotions you go through when you choose to believe every single random message board poster and discord member is as infuriating as it is exhausting 

What roller-coaster? Just take everything with a grain of salt.

It's pretty simple. If he want's to coach college, he knows the job is his.  All he needs to do is pick up the phone.  If he doesn't want it, then move along.  No reason to belabor it.  

This. It is all about whether he wants to coach in college again. It's pretty simple. 

I know there are other factors, such as the possible sale of the Celtics, does the wife want to move, etc...

I honestly would guess that the decision about Stevens is already known. Either he's coming to IU or Dolson is already working on another candidate.

And I know that I'm one of the few people around here who feel this way, but I'm not 100 percent sure that Stevens is a sure slam dunk as a college coach at a high major in 2025.

I know...I know... I'm a philistine.

Carry on...

If I didn't know better I would think the people who run this board put moles on this board to spread rumors to keep people coming to the board.

Agree. I was too. Absolute waste of money.
