Wasn’t there a NSFW thread going for a while on the old site? lol. 

Was it that one or this?  I legit can’t remember but I have hoped for years every poor mod got sent to that board when they first got in.

Wait.  I heard Billy Donovan was showing Brad Stevens horse farms in Bloomington this morning.  How did he get to Miami for a meeting this afternoon?

I don’t get why a meeting would even happen in Miami. Is there something I’m missing? Why not meet here or in Boston or somewhere in the middle beneath an old Georgia pine? Or just zoom meet? 

It's warm in Florida.  Dolson and Stevens are smart guys.

Because if you want Brad Stevens, you go to wherever Brad Stevens says. We learned how to do it right 4 years ago.

Can you explain why Brad Brownell   would be bad ? I know I am somewhat new here  but he seems to be doing a good job as far as I can tell .

Made the tournament 4 out of 14 years in a below average ACC.  He's extremely mid.  He's done well this year; I still believe last year's run was fool's gold.  He's been been almost fired from Clemson like 4 times.  He's lost double digit games in 13 of his 14 full seasons coaching Clemson.  

He's not somebody I can see winning here with any consistency.

There were some crazy ones lol. You mentioned the Moses Abraham one, such a sad, sad time.

It was the original HSN. HoosierReb had a boatload of pictures. He also would email some that were reaalllly NSFW.

Okay thank you I did not look at history  just seen a few scores where they beat  ranked teams

Certainly would not be a big splash hire.  Has had a couple of decent back-to-back years at Clemson now but should not be anywhere the top of our wish list.

We're shooting for the stars, not the roof a three-story building.  Solid coach, but not what we're looking for.

That’s not surprising to learn lol. @Naturalhoosier, was it Reb that met us in Bloomington for the IU vs Navy game and we snuck into Assembly Hall where we technically weren’t supposed to be?

He does have it going this year, I'll give him credit.  But this is BY FAR his best season as HC there in 15 years. He would obviously have more help here, but I just don't see him as a real option.  He's an actual flavor of the month candidate in my opinion.
