This should go without saying obviously, but there will be no press conference tomorrow. I’ll be able to take the lid off a bit later in the week. But will say this, anybody providing details right no

I’ve had several PM’s so wanted to drop a quick line to the broader board. Love this group and fully intend to continue to contribute to the community, Im not going anywhere. (Sorry to a few of you) B

So I couldn’t get much from him unfortunately. But, to me that’s a good thing. There’s been pretty much zero chatter, nor leaks for a month about coaches. He said it doesn’t matter that the season is

Most fans have no idea what happened with Beard and fewer are as sanctimonious as you think. 

Agree to disagree. Every time he's mentioned as a possible candidate in an article it gets mentioned. You're in denial if you think it wouldn't get mentioned in the very, very, very unlikely case that he gets hired so if they don't know about it now, they will.

You're also wrong about how many would overlook domestic violence.

But he won't be hired so we won't find out.

Everyone would know as soon as IU hired him because his history will be in every article about his hiring. And people have very strong feelings about being domestic violence.

And, on top of that, it's not about being "sanctimonious" - it's about whether you're hiring a coach who is one bender away from putting the program in a terrible position. Maybe they totally vet him, he never drinks anymore, and his past issues were all a big misunderstanding, but you're kidding yourself if you don't think a sizable number of people will be skeptical and nervous about that.

Chris needs to tell me what he knows or I’m about to drill a bottle of Makers. 
 

 

Idle threat. The two thoughts aren’t related as it turns out. 

How about some Buffalo Trace Eagle Rare, Blanton's, EH Taylor Small Batch and then Makers Mark? I don't drink but my wife loves bourbon and we both enjoy visiting the distilleries in Kentucky.

I think if it was going to be Brad Stevens as the next IU coach, we would have heard about it by now.  I don't buy the "They would want to respect the current IU coach and team....."  I think it's going to be Chris Beard.  Dude is a winner.  I'd be happy with Iowa St.'s coach, Arizona's coach, Drew, or the Texas Tech coach.  Let's get this thing going and have IU start winning regularly again. 

If it's Brad I could see that.  Both of them being NBA coaches at the same time means their teams would have played against each other. So Brad might feel some professional respect  to not announce until the season is over even it's not warranted. JMO.

Tournament time is closing in.  Let's settle this the only reasonable way.  Each coach gets his most successful college team and they battle it out for the ultimate prize.  The chance to coach Indiana and have us as his fanbase... well at least the first one is a prize.  Who is coming out on top?

From the beginning silence equals Brad Stevens except saying one statement that he is happy in Boston.  Nothing else from IU decision makers about anyone nor any direction.  Nothing more from Stevens.  Dusty May and Michigan extend relationship shortly afterwards.

I’m not saying Brad is coming or not. But look at all the breadcrumbs or coincidences that point directly at him. Then look at the negatives…or just the 1 negative, which was a soft @$$ Goodman tweet that literally denied nothing.

I don’t believe in coincidences, but damn.

@AH1971 is 100% NGW. Same irrational confidence, same refusal to respond to posts when someone brings the receipts.

And just like the several others who all thought they had the world solved, you’d be wrong.

He got fired 2 years ago, and was hired at Ole Miss two months after that. I haven't seen anything in the news the last 2 years about him getting in trouble, or being found drunk at a bar. I see lots of posts that call him an alcoholic but I'm confused how people have such inside information about his medical condition.

Finally, this is what BTB has been missing!!  Love this, but you have Brad Stevens as a #4 seed??? :)

I can’t help but notice that you still haven’t responded to @Home Jersey. It is tough when someone brings the receipts.

Brother I have 40 something notifications, can’t keep up with all of them. Definitely responded too him at least once today. Can you clarify which post?
