Now, Stevens has spoken here on Feb. 14, but some at IU are not confident that constitutes a hard and final “No.” They see it as nothing more than a public comment that sometimes happens during these processes. - Rabby 

If true, IU right now…

Brad isn’t coming. There was never a done deal. Move on.

As someone who has been very skeptical about Steven’s coming, and remain so, if all there is to it is that Steven’s quote, that doesn’t mean anything. It’s like if someone asked me if I was cheating on my wife and I said, I love my wife and am very happy in my marriage. 

Ayo? How many?

How do we really know what Dolson has done in this search. Just because some random guys come on message boards saying things that is happening doesn't make it correct 

Regardless, that's how it looks to many fans

“Not a candidate” is such a damning way to put it too. 
Completely pours water on not just everything we’ve heard from insiders this cycle, but also whatever was alluded to have happened four years ago. 
 

Not even a candidate…ooooooooof

Just hire Chris Beard and get this over with. We’d be rolling by this time next year.

Not saying Brad is coming but what did people expect?

He has a job at the moment. Goodman apparently asks him if he's interested in the IU opening and he's supposed to say yes? He didn't say no. That response Goodman tweeted means nothing, IMO.

Again, not saying Brad is coming but people are overreacting. I don't know how we can go from all we need is his signature, guarantees are made, to this. Seems strange.

Nonsense.  This is Indiana University.  Yes we are going to lose but by God we lose here with dignity.

Yeah, someone who is considering accepting an offer, is that a candidate?  Or is it something else?  What the heck is a candidate?  Is he running for office?  

Goodman is such a disser of IU.  Just wants clicks...and Dr. P loves it.

He's not A candidate, he's THE candidate.  Checkmate.

The way this has played out definitely does make Dolson look like a desperate chick throwing herself at Stevens only to get hurt time and time again. Lol

I don't get why people would criticize Dolson for going after BS, which if he would be successful in securing , there would be calls to canonize him, in the time before he can not really accomplish anything with active coaches. 

And the notion that it somehow is a black mark on IU is laughable.  If the hire, May, Few, Cronin, etc in a month and a half, no one will give a sh*t about what Dolson did in Mid February.

Because it's too early. The timing with all of this is just weird. We can't realistically expect a coach to say yes this early when we still have a month left in our season. Even if someone agreed to it, good luck keeping that a secret for a whole month.
