I don't see a new coach announcement before the season ends. I really don't think Brad Stevens would approve of that while the team is in season. 

Yeah, again, I think it's going to be "Brad Stevens has met with Indiana University about their upcoming vacant position. Talks are ongoing." Very similar to like Steichen being the Eagles OC while talking to the Colts...I don't think it officially "broke" until the day of the Super Bowl. Kellen Moore to the Saints is another example.

We have a verbal agreement. Still need contract signed. Likely will be signed tmw. That is why not today. I expect tmw to respond with "signed sealed delivered, I'm yours".

My wife picked the wrong time to have a baby this weekend. 

Here's to hoping they allow phones in the delivery room.

It's getting difficult to not get hopes up, thanks a lot.

Believe it when I see it.

If this doesn't happen, some of you may have to go into witness protection haha.

Scott dolson you dog

I think you and GP should compare notes and see if you have different sources. If so I’d feel much better.

Maybe that leaks, but I really think Stevens is a total professional. He wants to keep a safe image for the university, himself, and Woodson. He's managed a very tight circle at Boston.

They do…at least at IU Bloomington

That means tomorrow is going to be miserable… if we don’t hear anything

Are you going to name the baby Brad

Here is a summary of all the flight info we've been tracking since Wednesday. 

I get flight info thrown at me from 3 different directions, and try to sort it out, so I am going to try and sort this out here.

We had 2 planes linked to Ned Pfau go to Opa-Locka on Wednesday. About the same time had a plane from Bedford, MA (where Brad and Celtics fly out of) going to Opa Locka. I've had several people tell me that Brad has a rep near Opa-Locka airport, so the assumption was that it was contract related.

Ned's plane then flew to Philly and has been there since Wednesday afternoon. It left this morning to go back to Opa, about the same time a plane from Bedford, MA was due in Philly. Now they missed each other by 15 minutes. Possible smoke screen, because Dolson knows we are tracking.

Then this final one popped up from Philly to Bloomington. No links to anyone, as it is a chartered jet.

You take all these together, and it is just an amazing set of coincidences, or is it involved? Hope that helps

I don’t understand the Philly connection though

Plan on putting 'Brad' on the birth certificate.

I have heard this but not sure if fact or not, in terms of him signing tomorrow at least

What has he won at the division 1 level that is unprecedented?

West Virginia doing a decent job right now

He is doing a phenomenal job at West Virginia in his first year.   Lost his best player (his son) and still beat Kansas on  the road and 4 top 10 wins.   They have lost some recently but he can coach.   He would be in my list as well.

Lmfao, oh we will see them in 4 years.  Maybe a different moniker, but yeah…. I feel like my parents and grandparents right now.  “They don’t make them like they used to”.  IU coaching searches or top recruitments aren’t for the faint of heart.

Come on...the significance of Philadelphia should ring a bell.
