Thanks for not deleting it until I had a chance to read it. 

I didn’t see it you got a screenshot that you can dm?

Omg you guys...are you all going to fall for this a second time?  

Some seem to be. I'll believe it when it's announced.

Assuming the "non-college coach" is referring to Stevens then obviously talks and negotiations have been happening.

We put a timetable on him?

Seems pretty standard for a life changing event. 
 

Scott: So everything’s all set and ready for your success. We’ll make you the highest paid coach in the game, a decade of guaranteed money, and one of the highest NIL budgets available. What do you say?

 

BS: it all looks great. Can I have a couple weeks to mull it over and talk to my family before we totally uproot and come back home?

Scott: Absoultely!  We still have our lame duck coach in there for a few more weeks anyway.

If the AAU coaches discussion is accurate, it seems like Dolson must feel pretty confident. Otherwise, why say that now? We all know who he means. And it’s not like repairing AAU relationships is critical right this second. I may be reading too much into it but there it is. 

Does seem a bit odd to get several aau coaches on a conference call and mend fences by dropping them some juicy tidbits.

I can with 100% certainty that the call did happen and that Dolson did allude to Brad. Now, why would this happen? Some have their opinions.

He could just be transparent in order to actually assist with the mending of relations.

Interesting, as in mend relationships that the current staff has broken/harmed?

Yeah I’m sure the mending needed goes back more than 4 years. I’m sure Archie and Crean didn’t do so hot as well.

IMO even if he says yes in 2 weeks it’s way more likely that the announcement is made the day after we lose in the BTT than anytime during the season. Could be wrong though. 

I definitely think some smoke would leak out, but either way the longer we go without Brad killing it will make this a long two weeks lol

Dolson when he gets his coach

Side note…

 

The  1000 page mark on this thread is rapidly approaching, and it probably just had some gas thrown on it.

Just a guess -- but I bet Brad decides in a week or less.  This decision doesn't take two weeks.

So this alleged Dolson comments were reported by Trilly?

Trilly is knows as a mixed bag of something or other.  Kind of throws stuff out...sometime it seems just to get clicks?   Some say that Trilly always has a source and usually is right.

I don't think an unverified rumor has legs.

It is plausible, though. 

I am not giving it any weight until Kathy with a C or Barrel Rick says so.

Maybe, but it could take two weeks to get a counter offer from the Celtics and decide between the two…

I’d go on the record saying it’s absolutely true. Just my opinion but I do believe Trilly and his sources. He knows a lot and especially on the AAU circuit.

Here I am falling all over the smoke and rumors, but having a great time doing it. It’s the most fun I had as a Hoosier for the past four years.  Whoever our next coach might be at least I feel hope again.
