If true you should start hearing things from legit media soon

If Fran does this year and next year, he could be the perfect successor there.

That feels like the job.

If we take everything at face value.  The fact that he was given 2 weeks to decide and if we do indeed have an agreement just 2 days later, it seems like there wasn't a lot for him to think about.  Which makes the wait for him signing seem more like a sure thing. 

Again; assuming all this is true.

I think all the info coming out right now is probably from very high donors. 

Don’t get me wrong, like hearing this stuff as much as anyone, but to paraphrase Snoop from “The Wire”, they need to shut the F up. Noting good comes from them running their mouths. Not a single thing.

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

maybe it's just because it's Valentine's Day .... but ....I'm gonna say it...

Media people I know aren't hearing much, I'm hoping they are out of the loop.  Could be the case.

I get that but I don’t understand the flights into Philadelphia 

I doubt that there is any significance in those.

No way to know if there was any unless we have a verified sighting or something other than chasing butterflies and waterfalls.

No magical sparkle pony glitter has hit any of us yet.  

Just check out Chris007 posts.  Don't worry, be happy.

Just lay in a decent supply of your favorite drinks.  And get your better half some flowers and candy.

And remember...Brad has to get someone's approval...besides Dolson.

Everything I am hearing from BTB (my source for all good info) is its Brand ******* Stevens.  Take if for what it's worth, but I trust those guys a lot.

Okay so here is where we are at,:

 

So yes some high dollar donors are where I am hearing that a verbal has been reached. Sounds like last bit of piece we need to do is get approval for new salary/bonus totals. Brads agents essentially got dolson to verbally up the offer which needs board approval. Takes time for board to approve, send revised contract, get him to sign it, work out other details. 

Because of this news being massive I think they will work to expedite. Part of reason high dollar donors are first to hear is because there is some additional NIL ask that is part of the verbal with brad. 

So while this is now at the one inch line we just need to formalize. I doubt top media will hear about this until later tomorrow as they are keeping it pretty quiet right now. 

I do not know what the verbal is in terms of how much we will pay him but do know that NIL increase will likely be much higher than what woodson worked with and woodson worked with a top 10 NIL budget

Oh absolutely.  Not celebrating until we get a shams bomb, which would happen shortly after any agreement is signed.

Ha.  I like when a bunch of seemingly independent posters align.  I am optimistic!!!

Well well well. I hope you’re right!

Was wracking my brain trying to figure out what the impressive feat Dolson pulled might be and wondered if it was like a stake in Pacers ownership via Simon Skojt connections or something.

If this is true, someone tell Buckner not to f this one up.
