How would you know it is? Information doesn't become more credible because it's what you want you hear.

I wasn't the one saying that everything around it is true. He stated that none of it is true. I feel that that puts the burden of proof on him....

The burden of proof is on the poster throwing out a dozen lines of information as fact. It's reasonable to be skeptical about the post, especially when actual statements from the primary character contradict what is shared.

Is anyone else surprised that no other reporter has actually confirmed Goodmans reporting?
You would think someone would have done so by now if that denial was actually from the “horses mouth” and not from a source (not stevens)

Goodman reaches the people like us! The ones that Brad needs to shut up for the moment.

2.7 million more then what he was making at Tech.   Seems like he is a very interesting character.   I’m guessing going back to Texas had something to do with it.   He seems like a guy that does things his way

His current buyout is large isn’t?

that said, if he is your guy PAY IT

You read that and you don’t like that guy I’ve got nothin’ for you. 

Have read 2 articles about him now but do you think his manic like fear of a level set for fan expectations would be too much for him here?

I don't agree. The person sharing what they have heard is simply that and should be taken at face value. If someone is going to refute what that person heard, I believe that they would need to prove it wrong to be able to say it was false.

I think he would do a great job stabilizing the program for about 6 years before he moves on, leaving the program better than when he took over!

Random question while we wait for the latest rumor - is World Wide Wes still a thing or did NIL and Kentucky basketball no longer being cool move that guy elsewhere?

I thought he was working for the Knicks but not sure if he is still there

Goodman's tweet said it was from a source IIRC.

This would also be the best time for him to take the job because of the last 25 years!

Expectations are LOW!

What a wild story. Brad Stevens and Scott Dolson going on vacation together to Albuquerque to visit set pieces from Breaking Bad is so outlandish... that I desperately want it to be true. (Regardless of who our next coach is)

That was from Field of 68, and then Goodman did his tweet straight after

But at some point common sense plays a factor

were told that there is a verbal agreement and Scott was making changes to send Brad a final contract that met all of brads demands and that Brad agreed to sign it. Then Brad just decided to say, “I’ll sign it on Monday”

I don’t KNOW that it didn’t happen that way. But I can pretty damn sure it didn’t because that doesn’t make any sense

If you hire him you are hiring a leader of men.  He is going to have plan in place on how to get IU back and obsess over it. He respect the history of the place while building his own take on things.  He would also have an exit strategy already planned. lol.    Easy guy to get behind.   Pretty sure he has a massive buyout in place though

And on Monday at midnight if it doesn't happen, you will be able to point to that part and say it is false.

Goodman launched Field of 68 as a media entity with Dauster

[BA47591]

Ole Miss THOROUGHLY vetted the man. Got him on the cheap for a year, signed him to an extension and he negotiated a minimal buyout. If IU wants him, he'll be vetted again. That should be enough.

Goodman's tweet said it was from a source IIRC.

So then that should be easy to confirm. Yet no other reporter had done so

If they are that close, he would probably know if Brad had any interest before he even ask him. Likewise, he would also know if Brad had no interest and he wouldn’t waste his time!

But I won’t because then “insiders” will pivot to something like “Brad had second thoughts over the weekend” or “Tracy vetoed it and made them stay in Boston” or “insert excuse here” 

and that’s how this **** always goes and it’s exhausting
