They are not trolls. They are longtime legitimate posters who have had good track records when reporting on things they have been told.
I trust what they say over someone like you

How’d that work out today? How’d it work out in 2021? How’d it work out in 2017?

You’re obsessed with me man.. it’s creepy

Go troll elsewhere. You are bringing down the quality of this place

i’ll never understand the finger pointing of “you gave bad info!!” or accusing of this. who are you idiots?

do you want no info? i sure don’t come here for your bs commentary on IU and to hear your opinions and what you want. i come here to see what ppl who have connections have to say. things change, nothings guaranteed. so sick of this stuff from certain ppl here

Either way, I’ll never accuse Chris or Jerry to be “trolls” or internally feeding us bad info on purpose.

I guess I am. I checked it out with a few very high donors who were putting up lots of the money, couple journalists who write about IU and someone in the know. They all had the same info. The donors still stand behind it.

as in the names you mentioned smiling after the game?

Not shitting on fans brother. Tired of trolls making up lies about Brad Stevens.

Thing is there are a lot of long time posters on this board that we appreciate bantering with and then there a a bunch of Johnny come lately posters calling them trolls.  No wonder Peegs went down hill.

Im sorry but did IU just hire a coach already?

People with doubt have every reason to. No need to attack them for having doubt, it’s okay to stick up for long time posters though. There is a difference.

A GM wants to “not be a distraction during all star weekend”?… so the real season would be a better time for it? Ludicrous. 
 
Brad had absolutely zero reason to put that statement out other than to shut this down early to avoid the onslaught of requests for comment. 

That statement won't shut anything down....it was weak if the intent was to shut it down.

So you 'lurked' on this site for four or five years and then decided to join a week ago and tell everyone they are full of ****?

 

Wanted to check out other sites to see what everyone was saying about the coaching searches. Have always hoped the things on here were true, but got fooled into believing slightly that they were correct. Wanted to get in on the fun. Third time with the same results and I am saying what I’m saying. I don’t mind going back to being a lurker and never posting again. 
 

Just wanted to call out the bs since I actually have an account now.

And thats what i am doing. We have an influx of trolls lately that are trying to astroturf and degrade the site.

He literally said “I’m not a candidate”.  I don’t know what more you can say than that.

I’m sure you’ll recover from it.  I can recommend some therapists if you’d like.

Cool.  Don't let the revolving door hit you on the way out.

If you don’t think IsaacTor is a troll I have a bridge to sell you

All of the “insiders” this morning said it was a “done deal.”  Everyone lost their freaking minds. 2-3 hours later word comes out that BS isn’t a candidate. Crickets.  Then excuses after they can think of a cover story.  Lather. Rinse. Repeat. 
 

Why would anyone close to the hiring process be blabbing numbers?  Why haven’t those numbers been discussed by the media? 
 

I made a comment that we would hear from BS no later than next Tuesday 2/18 as if I actually knew something. Everyone lost their minds for a moment. It was too easy to get everyone fired up. I’ve been lurking on this site for 4-5 years and I’ve seen the same stuff repeated just like this over and over again. It’s crazy how many keep buying into it. 

So, it bothers you that some folks might choose to still hold out hope that Stevens ends up coming to IU?

Can the mods please hire an exterminator to get rid of some of these trolls please?

Why did he need to shut it down?
