This should go without saying obviously, but there will be no press conference tomorrow. I’ll be able to take the lid off a bit later in the week. But will say this, anybody providing details right no

I’ve had several PM’s so wanted to drop a quick line to the broader board. Love this group and fully intend to continue to contribute to the community, Im not going anywhere. (Sorry to a few of you) B

So I couldn’t get much from him unfortunately. But, to me that’s a good thing. There’s been pretty much zero chatter, nor leaks for a month about coaches. He said it doesn’t matter that the season is

Behavioral Science says the public silence from Brad Stevens and IU administrators that there is a high probability that the next IU men’s basketball coach will be…..him.

And Brad Stevens (unfazed by external factors) has made himself an institution and IU is an institution = merger

The same individual also tweeted a joke about Brad Stevens offering a scholarship to Dallas James Jr. and calling him Grande Dallas with a mustache of some sort drawn on his picture so....ha.

To clarify one thing on my end, I don’t think people are just making up rumors. At least not on here. I feel like pushback against “inside information” is often seen as an attack on the people posting it. I don’t think folks are coming onto btownbanners and posting fan fiction. I think they’re told things by people they know, and then they let us in on that information. Sometimes people get bad info. Other times good info becomes bad info because life happens and circumstances change. We’ll see how this all shakes out. 

I would also add a few other possible (probably?) things that affect the information in addition to what you said above (which I agree with):

- It looks like a lot of the info comes the IU side and not the target's side. So the way a target (in this case Stevens but this applies to recruits as well) is leaning is really just a reflection of how confident the IU side feels instead of what the target is actually thinking.

- The information seems to pass through several people before showing up on this board. Distortion is to be expected. That's not to say intentional, but it does happen when passing info from person to person. Anyone remember the telephone game we played as kids?

I love the info we get on this site but at the same time take it with a grain of salt. Not because I think they're lying or making it up, but because I can see how things can change or the how it might be inaccurate.

It really would be something if the Celtic’s message boards started talking about Brad and IU. I haven’t seen anything yet.

I'm just cautious in giving much weight to the rumors, especially after we went down this road last time and ended getting a running dropkick to the groin.

It's possible the "2 weeks to decide" involves more than just him deciding. I wouldn't think it'd be too common to schedule OOC games without having a coach.
