Brad needed Cuban coffee so he could be fully engaged for his son's game back in Boston. Long day for him.

Had Cafecito on a work trip to Miami. I have a decently high caffeine tolerance but that shot hits different.

I don't want a situation where it's Stevens Plan A and there is nobody else...kinda thinking that's what happened in 2021. I think it's great to cast a pretty big net. 

May is Plan B

Four years ago, Dolson hired Matta. QB hired Woodson and overruled him.   With QB finally out of the picture, Dolson is doing his job.

Alright til tomorrow then see everyone at what 10am ish?

That’s the one thing I’m absolutely not worried about. Dolson would have known 11 months ago that where we are now was well within range of outcomes. I can’t imagine he hasn’t spent that time profiling what they want, researching at least some obvious candidates and developing a hiring process that he could just flip a switch on. Anyone he would presumably  have interest in other than Stevens has at least 6 more weeks of their season left. So, if it’s not Stevens, and count me in the I’ll believe it when he’s at a presser in AH and not before camp, this is gonna go on for probably 8 weeks, minimum.

Well, from 7 am - 10 am is the usual random coaches talk, maybe 11ish? Noon or 1 pm is the random Chris007 hint, from 1 pm to 8 pm it’s usually Brad Stevens Talk or Dusty, After that it’s the random coaches again

Everyone, we have several days/weeks left until anything gets closer to a resolution I think.  To get us through, maybe we need a schedule.  That way some people can actually get our work done and only visit during their preferred times.  Sorry Chris, you are still required to refresh every 5 minutes to answer questions that you already answered 5 pages back for the 5th time because no one wants to go back and read the 20 pages that just posted in the last hour.

Michigan AD spoke on a podcast today and stated an updated contract is in the works for Dusty May. Not surprising.

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

I stand corrected.  It was legitimately impressive.

I do think in this case Dolson has a little time on his side. He can fully focus on Brad and once he says no then move to the college coaches who realistically aren’t speaking until after the season anyways. Obviously only issue is if May is #2 on the list and Michigan locks him up before Brad decides if he wants to coach or not.

There was one here too. I found it when I became a mod and it’s hidden and buried. All of those pages are just dead links now.

Doesn’t mean we still can’t get him. I still think we screwed up not getting him last year. I think the Stevens talk is fun, but if he turns us down,  May turns us down, things tend to snowball real fast and it’s Option G or F.
