I watched Nevada the other night get thumped at home by Boise State.  

I have to say, it was the worst offense I’ve watched all year.  I was terribly disappointed it was a Alford coached team.  Ball screens and no movement off the ball.  Terrible shot selection.  It was atrocious.

This Alford coached team hardly resembled Indiana basketball of old.

This season’s team is one of his worst as a head coach.  I agree, the offense is terrible.

I'm surprised at the number of fans on X and Facebook that I see advocating for Steve Alford. Are these folks serious?!?!

Typical Facebook boomer behavior.  No offense to any boomers here.  B-Town Banner boomers are cool.

Rabby said people have reached out to IU about Otz, tbd if anything happens from it though. 
 

 

Who reached out to IU?  Reps for Otz feeling for interest, or boosters wanting to throw their backing towards him?

Strong inference in that statement would be that it's reps for Otz assessing interest.

FWIW, I wish they'd ask me. I am interested in Otz to IU. Completely interested with zero reservations.

My birthday is Friday.  Number 75.  I don’t want Steve Alford to be IU’s HC.  Thank you.

Rabby, in true Rabby fashion, was extremely vague and didn't divulge who reached out. When people assumed that it was people reaching out on behalf of Otzelberger,  he said that isn't what he said.

He went on to say that he's trying to find out if Otzelberger has interest and should be added to the next hot board.

Never claimed to be an insider. Claimed to be an IU guy and a basketball tbh all junkie who happens to get some occasional info.

Said it was greater than 0% as of today.

 

 

That’s not at all what you have been posting. You claimed he was coming and gave dates in which it would come out and even said you knew who the assistants were. You either know those things or you don’t and if you know those details that nobody else knows then that is an insider.

If you believe what you yourself have been posting then you have nothing to lose. 

are you backtracking on all the details you have posted previously?

Well, depending on whether Dolson “has his guy”,  I hope the interest is strongly reciprocated at least.

Wow! Look at all these losers (myself included, it´s sarcastic I promise) posting about fantasy coaching hires!

My wife: you´re going to read it all, aren´t you?

Me: Yeah

Wife: Loser

Give me BS or Mark Few from outta nowhere

I’ve been wondering if this search doesn’t go off the rails and wind up back to Woodson

Geez. Ok, let’s do it. And the bet is proving that it’s above a 0% chance as you previously posted, correct? You pick the mod kind sir.

and definitely not an insider, there’s people here who are actual insiders. I just happen to know someone who is close to what’s being talked about. 

its almost like you don’t want it to be Brad and want to continue to have a **** product on the floor just so you can be right. What a miserable human you are
