Does seem kind of convenient a poster that claims to know high level donors shows up with this information.

Happens every time we hire a coach. I remember I almost told some friends we were hiring Donovan but it seemed a little off so I waited.

Woodson doesn’t deserve support, IMO.  

Correct. Nothing has changed just because he is gone.

Fat chance of Woodson supporting this unless you gave him an extra couple million. Who cares about Woodson anyway we done need his approval.

I was going to say, it doesn't matter if he'd approve it or not. He has no say.

Peegs is a ghost town right now. Very strange.

Making a username playing on a current BoT member was always extra suspect. We’ve seen this before.

This. Don't trust him for a second.

If all of this works out, how does Braylon Mullins feel? 

Of course he'll go to UCONN and play for currently the best college coach. 

But seeing Brad Stevens go to his home state school would have to be tough. He'd be a virtual God in his home state. He would probably make more NIL at IU and the only coach who is arguably on Hurley's level right now would Stevens due to his high-level of success in both college and the pros. 

It would have to hurt a little, at least...

I have ZERO inside info with the Sisley family but I’d bet big money they will be thrilled to have Trent play for Steven’s.

We’ve had constant reminder from @JerryYeagley23 that Dolson has his guy.  He hasn’t changed that stance.  I’m not worried.

I have zero info as well and I would be happy as a clam to have him play for Steven's.

Donors don’t talk with journalists and a donor or two is the source here.  Makes this once extra tricky to figure out, tough for the usual media to get the early story.  Several sourced posters are saying similar things, not just Isaac.  Just have to hope the source is good and it pans out.

[Home Jersey 11,137]

IMO, based on Trilly's comment yesterday where allegedly he said Dolson gave Stevens 2 weeks to decide, that's probably accurate. 

Smoke today could be good vibes, could be opportunistic trolling without sources piling on. The planes are interesting IMO. 

Glad to have the 2 week timeline on it so Dolson doesn't get caught with his richard in his hand like last time and can find another strong candidate if things go wrong. 

I don't think you have to announce anything before the season ends. Don't think a deal "leaking" forces their hand in the slightest.

Except that meant like 60-40 right?

He's the only one that has said anything about a verbal agreement though.

I'm pretty sure he got the standard btownbanners background check that all of us went through.

1. Credit Check
2. Drug Test
3. Email your social security number to Stuhoo
4. Send a stool sample to Hovadipo

Safe to say that he's been vetted.

No he's not. A couple people here have alluded to it.

Need to hear something from Trilly IMO to believe something is eminent

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 

 

Now isn't this where Fergeson steps in and fks everything up.  :)
