 I see no reason to be convinced Stevens to IU is over based on what we have seen. 

Seriously?

I’m going to go to bed tonight, dream of a Harbaugh or Saban situation with Brad and start my birthday off tomorrow by waking up, reasoning it was a dream and going through Brad denial again.

But Daytona is Sunday. Positive news

Happy birthday tomorrow! Whatever you do, don't think of anything IUbb tomorrow if you want a good day!

[Kepner]

Anyone know what the latest coaching hot board is over at Peegs?

[Hornsby]

Cronin nearly gave away a sure win, with that buyout, I sure hope we pass on him!

Yes on the top of the list but if we strike out he isn't a bad option. His resume is pretty good

Over 1 game? And a game that he won in the road at Assembly Hall? That’s tough. 

It’s not the first time they have lost comfortable leads this season!

I had a Valentine’s dinner with my wife then went to the game with my family. Not sure what’s going on. Last I was told there was a verbal with Brad guaranteeing he would sign since we met his counter offer. I was told he didn’t want to sign this weekend due to the all-star game. The contract was written up, signed by the trustees and sent to Brad. I can explain in more detail later. If I let you down it’s my fault. I’m going to try to get answers this weekend. Love is still in the air.

Our future coach must never lose...or even win close!

Let me say the EXACT same thing in a different way:

Cronin’s team won the game.

Cronin is a very good coach. 

For what we'd have to pay to get Cronin, we'd be better off aiming higher.

Thanks for the insight Chris, while I’m not a big believer in Brad coming here, it could be anything from he changed his mind or it’s calm down the rumors. Just my 2 cents.

No need to be saying anything is your fault.  You have stood true around here  thru good and bad.  That is all anyone can ask.  You have shared what you have heard and nothing is on you, no matter what happens. The majority of us around here appreciate everything you and the rest of the insider gang does.  If things do not work out as we all hoped there is nothing on  you and you have not let anyone down.  

Glad you had a good night with your family!  Don't let anyone around here get you down or give you a hard time!

True. But imagine the shame of losing to a Woodson team (Whizzo?)

Cronin refused to talk about the IU job

What did he counter with, if we were already willing to make him the highest paid cbb coach? Holy $hit!

This program is in an incredibly dire need of major boost. My opinion is a candidate like Cronin doesn’t even come close to providing that shot of energy and enthusiasm.
