spe317 Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I’ve done some digging on RTZ. Zion is a reference to the national park in Southern Utah. If RTZ is meeting with a source who is an AP pollster that means it’s a smaller list of people. He said the pollster is northeast-focused. Of course, the northeast is relative. And what’s northeast of Southern Utah? Indiana. Know who’s an AP pollster? One Jeffrey Rabjohns. Boom. RTZ is having lunch with Rabby discussing Brad Steven’s coaching staff.

Would love to coach IU. IU has the money, the years, the NIL budget, etc etc BUT His daughter doesn’t want to relocate and wants to finish high school where she calls home (and I wouldn’t blame her) and at the end of the day, Brad doesn’t come. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I’d be more worried about that guy getting the job. Big 5 star recruit is playing in Indianapolis…oops, sorry can’t go recruit, the daughter has a dance recital. Purdue coming to town mid February for the conference standings lead…too bad, need to take the wife Valentines Day shopping instead of scout. You have to be married to this job to succeed. Anyone that tenuous about accepting the job is setting themselves up for failure no matter how talented they are as a coach. Stevens would be awesome here, but if he doesn’t want to be here no amount of money you could throw at him would make him successful here. He’d fail like everyone else.

iubb Posted February 26 Posted February 26 I once hired a limo but when it arrived, the guy driving it walked off! I said 'Excuse me? Are you not going to drive me?' The guy told me that the price didn't include a driver so I spent $552 on a limo and have nothing to chauffeur it! woodenshoemanHoosierfan, Banksyrules, thebigweave and 1 other 2 2

I think people are just giving you a hard time for the Turgeon stuff, and also making a joke about Ant Wright, who is a Twitter analyst for Big Ten hoops (and has DMV ties I think?). what have you been hearing on Mark or others?
