It was last week. I've heard 10 years 92 million and also 8 years 85 million.

Either is fine with me since it's not my money. Also heard we can go more if we have too

I’m going to put some chum in the water for Brad lovers….is he really so irreplaceable for the Celtics? Aren’t there other guys capable of doing what he is doing? Not saying he isn’t good at what he does, but some people have made him sound like some kind of irreplaceable basketball management genius!

Michigan would have never hired him if he told them he was going to leave after one year if another conference team's job came open in my opinion. The low buy out is on Michigan's end. 

Michigan has absolutely no advantage to a low buyout other than it got them a great coach.

I hope it's the 8/85M if this is accurate. That's ~$1.5M/year more than the other deal plus not as long of a commitment if it somehow didn't work out. So a better deal for both sides, imo.

What do you mean on their end, how does this favor them? There is a second buyout that protects Dusty from them letting him go early, it is much more than $4M

OK, who do you replace him with?

The first rumor of Mike Woodson being considered was a dark day in american history. 

I did not take it seriously cause I thought it was a total joke. I didn't think they were really dumb enough to hire him.

Yes Glass told Quinn he would hire Mike if they agreed to let Crean go. Then went behind his back to Archie and never even interviewed Mike

That’s pretty much what I was told, which might explain Woody telling Dolson et al 4 years later that they would have to come to New York rather than him coming to Bloomington if they wanted to talk with him etc

Just lock him up. That would be a top 5 ncaa salary. Maybe tops.

He has a GM and been training Ainge's son so he can leave

I'm sitting close to Scott Friday night so I'll report back. If he has a farmers tan then I know he was at the beach

I'll be sitting close to him as well.

That’s impressive, but didn’t the Celtics just win the championship….how did he fair in the same voting last season?

[Hornsby]

Maybe this is all one big mirage by dolson. On senior night at halftime, dolson and ferguson walk to halfcourt waving a signed lifetime contract for Woodson at 8 million a year. Quinn proceeds to rappel in from the ceiling to " welcome to the jungle" as he pumps his fist in the air at lighting speed.

Nico Harrison will probably be looking for a job soon.

Per Rabjohns..."Indiana vs. Kansas State is also in the works for 2025-2026"...Marquette and Kansas State is a strong beginning to a non-conference slate. If (big IF) we hire Brad Stevens, it would not be surprising to see the Hoosiers put into a Feast Week event (unless the Marquette game is part of an exempt event and we'd play campus games against a couple of smaller schools with Marquette as the headliner). Kind of odd to have scheduling stuff being done with no coach in place, unless....
