Seriously?

Absolutely. Do I think it is a done deal? No.  Do I think it highly probable? Nah.  Did I hear anything that shows me he is not going to be our coach? No.  Did you hear Stevens say something absolute?

Well boys and girls, I’m logging off for the night. I’ll end by saying, I’ll take one for the team tomorrow and tomorrow when I blow out my candles, I’ll use my birthday wish on “Brad Stevens coming to IU”

So maybe this Goodman info tonight was a smokescreen to get past the weekend?

I sure hope so. We offered 9.2 million, he said 10. Scott said if I meet your counter you have to guarantee you’ll sign. He said he would guarantee it. We met every demand. 100 million up to 120 with bonuses over 10 years. This was agreed upon by everyone.

Maybe the guy knows deep down he just doesn’t have the passion needed to coach at Indiana? If rumors are true and he was offered nearly $100M to coach at IU and he didn’t jump at the chance, I wouldn’t want him. I want someone that really wants the job and is excited for the opportunity!

Or none if it happened at all.

Out of curiosity, What does All Star weekend have to do with Brad Stevens and him taking another job? If anything, it would give his front office some time to get their house in order and promote an interim replacement. 

Maybe if word got out NBA all star weekend would turn into Brad and IU talk. Maybe he wanted it to stay about the NBA.

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. 

Thanks Chris! Yep I am back!

10;54pm Rabby said there are still some out there that believe he’s still in play. Not saying he is or isn’t just relaying information. 

Thanks for your info

Chris,

appreciate the update.  But you took a Celibacy truse until Brad signs on the dotted line. Don’t have too much fun tonight. 

I promise to remain celibate until Stevens signs or for the next month, whichever comes sooner.

Again, guys, I'm married.....thirty years.

Why though? Nobody (outside of these forums) was reporting anything "official" up until then. Who are they "smoke screening"?

Hopefully no one is still buying this stuff.  If this info was so easy to find out, or there are that many people blabbing this info to their friends, the media would be all over it. Plus, why would anyone with actual knowledge of this coaching search be so willing to give this info away? Come on, y’all. Surely you aren’t this gullible.

Are you still master of your domain?

And really still nothing official has been reported except for "sources say....blah blah blah"

Oh, people still will.

Brad countered, we met his demands and he goes “alright I’m gonna enjoy all star weekend now, I’ll get to it Monday”

it’s unreal people buy this garbage man

Just curious, but why do you care if someone wants to listen to this idea?

Chris, I don’t mean this as disrespect, but I find this hard to believe.

For one, that we would offer this much. For 2, that the squabble is over 8 million over 10 years. If he wanted the job, he’d take it at 9.2, 10 doesn’t do anything extra for him.

I’m not even saying I don’t think he could still be an option, because I could see why they want to lower the temp for a couple weeks.

Anyway, happy Valentines day Hoosiers on a brutal day of fandom.

Our admin got us into this mess and our boosters tried their best to get us out of it.

I’m expecting we pay someone around 6 a year. Possibly Dusty. Maybe someone else. Go from there.

You seem like a good guy man, but that absolutely doesn’t make sense.

why would you go back and forth in a contact negotiation, come to an agreement, receive the contract, then say, “well thanks guys, I’ll sign this thing in 4 days”

makes absolutely 0 sense
