Still not bought in. I'll believe it when I see him announced 

Even if it’s false hope it’ll make the next few weeks better

Fun with blind resumes.  

Coach 1 received 75% yes in the poll last week.  He is in his 21st year of D1 basketball.  He has a .680 win pct, made 13 NCAA Tournaments so far and will make the tournament this year.  He has been to one Final Four. 

Coach 2 received 8% yes in the poll last week.  He is in his 22nd year of D1 basketball.  He has a .683 win pct, made 14 NCAA Tournaments and will make the tournament this year.  He has been to one Final Four.  

Based on the survey, we evidently want more than winning out of our next coach. I would accept either of these 2 coaches, but neither are in my top 3 which are Stevens, May, and Bennett.  Any guess as to who they are without peaking at the survey? 

Yes-without peeking I am 100 percent sure you are referring to Cronin and Beard.

Cronin is kind of a jerk (yet I would accept him), and Beard may be an alcoholic that does bad things when he drinks too much. I would say he’d be a terrible choice.

You guys are killing me softly. The Brad resurrection love is so hysterically ridiculous it’s like being attacked with feathers

I have nothing better to do, while it won’t be him, let’s resurrect it for fun

If Brad Stevens coaches at IU next year, I will tattoo "BS" on my a$$ cheek. 

Lol... happily too... upping the stakes on this speculation

(I have no tattoos)

Yea.  In my opinion it’s like a 1% chance, which is higher than what most IU media people think.  But it’s entertaining to see if he somehow called it from the get go, which would be amazing.

Does anybody have any of the Billy Donovan talk posts?  This sounds eerie similar.  

Jerry is more connected than anyone that ever spoke about Billy Donovan. Don’t know if you’re new or just trying to be funny. Just giving you a heads up.

glad you went there before me.

I would like to believe but it seems the day (2 weeks, Mar 1st then end of BTT) we will know keeps sliding back. Would love to have been on the AAU call or to know that we indeed scheduled games because we have our guy. But the changing date.

Unless Dolson knows for sure Stevens is coming I start ramping up my efforts for May. Can’t let second choice get away. Especially since I have May right there with Stevens.

Jerry’s timing has been consistent — after the regular season, broadly. Isaac seems like he may actually have connection(s) based on the March ‘24 post, among others, but his timing post has always been an outlier.

It’s May!  I’m not on the BS train anymore, I would rather win my bet over Chris, lol!

Isaac is a complete and total troll IMO and the "March 2 3pm Foxsports" beyond confirms that for me. Personally put zero stock in him. Has helped rack up the page count though, I'll give him that. Unreal pace in this thread

Coach 2 who only received 8% yes votes is Cronin.  Coach 1 is not Beard.
