Popular Post HoosierTrav Posted February 24 Popular Post Posted February 24 1 hour ago, Chris007 said: I would say two reasons come to mind as someone else said the owner is the only person he answers to and if he's not leaving for another month why say anything? Two, the Celtics are for sale right now, so probably trying to keep everything quiet. Not disclosing information like this could have extremely damaging effects on the deal overall. If Brad knew he was leaving, those conversations would have had to have happened at this stage of the sale. Otherwise it could kill the entire deal. Not trying to sound pretentious here but I have some experience dealing with M&A. High profile acquisitions like this come with extreme due diligence. The buyers will want to have stability for the transition. Losing the league’s top front office executive may be perceived as potential instability. Unless the new owners have their own guy lined up, it’s likely they’ll want him to stay so things continue to run smoothly. None of this means “therefore he wouldn’t leave”. It just means that at this stage of the process, his intentions would have to be made clear. It can really complicate things. Jeff Flabjohns, MikeRoberts, OKHOOSIER and 12 others 14 1

BA47591 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 I'll bet it's a current active p4 coach not in the Big Ten that has been to a final 4 in the first ten years of his coaching career. I feel confident in my wager.

The info that had came out even if you just take the sterling video clears all these insiders. They are posting what they are hearing. I respect all of them. Chris has been right about alot of stuff. Isaac may be a troll but I am not certain. If he is you would think he would post more often to get people more wound up imo Sent from my SM-S926U using Tapatalk Isaac may have some connections, others have said he posted last year that Buckner had the votes to keep Woodson before the release came out. I think he jumped the shark on his posts about the coaching search though.

I think it’s great that he is religious, but I also feel that sometimes people at that age can start to have different priorities in life and other things become More important and the passion that he once had is not exactly there anymore and I would rather not take a chance on that. I also feel that he is most likely in a better environment, religiously speaking down there in Baylor than he would be here at Indiana so it doesn’t really make sense to me on that level. He's also "only" 54. So we could still have a 15 year run with him. So only 6 years older than BS or Otzelberger. He's been around forever so he feels older. I'd be surprised if he left too; but don't think you can say no thanks if he expresses interest. thebigweave 1

ronzo4IU Posted February 24 Posted February 24 5 minutes ago, JSHoosier said: I don't know that I'd say he's fading off. This is a down year, sure, but the previous three are as follows: 27-7 (14-4), tied for 1st 23-11 (11-7), tied for 3rd 24-11 (11-7), tied for 3rd Won a game in the tourney each year. He won the title the year in 2020-21. That'd be the best stretch we've had in a long time. That’s true and he has been great for Baylor but not overly impressive lately…he is for sure having a down year..I do not see this as a grand slam hire, but I would give it a B. Jeff Flabjohns 1

P92 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 I remember the game against Illinois where Knight benched all our starters except for Blab. The CBS announcers kept saying “We expect him to put in the starters after the first tv time out…at tge 10 minute mark…to start the second half…he’s not playing them!” We lost but Blab did pretty well. Knight thought he was the only guy showing effort in the previous games. thebigweave, str8baller, Chris007 and 1 other 4
