Sure, but he played 15 games and 27 games in recent seasons without tweeting at all.  He hasn't played close to a full season of NBA basketball in almost 8 years. 

 

He still traveled with the team, sat in meeting, everything else you do when you're on an active roster, though. 

But, yes, this season he's for sure tweeted more.

He left the team earlier this season for personal reasons.

And that personal reason is he's going to be IU's GM.

I don’t think he even travels with the team. I saw him at O’Hare when he should have been at a game

That’s correct

What else could it be? Put 2 and 2 together, I'm joking, I have no clue. 

Luke was heavily in involved AAU, Dad Zeller was a coach...

Give us the full scoop here. Who do we think Zeller is working with, Stevens? 

Brad recruited Cody.  Just sayin’ they know each other.

I don’t know about that. I was just stating he’s hasn’t suited up or traveled with the Rockets this season. 
I do know him and Brad have a good relationship but not sure his plans after basketball.

Yes they do and not a remotely comparable situation.

Definitely different situation- in beautiful Bloomington IT as long as an employee isn't going to a competitor (no such beast in town) we are okay with some crossover for easier transitions. Mostly we want institutional knowledge passed on. If I'm the Celtics owner wouldn't see going to college game as a threat of compromised interests.  Not saying it's happening but I'd not be too worried. (Not to mention the incestuous pool for hiring- always a chance you see the same people so why burn bridges/make it a hard transition?)

I would think that he is looking for a coaching gig, not GM.

Is Cody Zeller now a candidate?  Has the same amount of experience as the current guy did.

Maybe learning for a couple years under Brad would be a good start to a coaching career ??

Nope. I meant assistant coaching gig on Indiana’s staff.

Hulls, Zeller, maybe Cheaney... getting the all-player assistant staff together!

Since IU beat Purdue can we have a little cryptic message

Didn’t Gordon Hayward just retire?

Neither was the current head coach and that didn't stop anyone.
