He’s a Celtics fan not really an IU basketball fan.  Doesn’t mean he doesn’t know things but he’s one of the most biased posters you’ll ever see.

BGleas is a mod on another IU message board. You think that would happen if he wasn't an IU fan? Laughable.

It makes it entertaining. If everyone had the same opinion, frankly it would be pretty boring.

We are just hitting our stride too… Senior day this weekend and then we will sustain a fever pitch in here through the first weekend of the tournament/whenever we get actual media reports and an official announcement. Peak message board szn baby.

As it's been stated, there is an extremely likely chance Cronin can fight his way out of his buyout or drastically have it reduced given what has transpired at UCLA since signing his extension.

From everything I have read UCLA is in a real financial pinch.  Would seem they would want every dime they could get from that buyout, no?

Not supporting anything or shooting anything down, just saying it's completely normal for an NBA Pres of Bbal ops, GM, etc., to not be at one of his teams games. 

Of course they attend a lot, but certainly not all especially during the college bball season. 

So while you can infer signs from some things, Stevens not being at the Celtics game last night isn't really one of them on its own. 

I defended Chris the other day, but also going to defend @BGleas. He’s been around a long time as well, and always been a poster I’ve respected. He’s just offering his take because of his knowledge of the NBA side and working in the Celtics organization. BG is a good poster, never caused any issues!

Chris doesn't like being undermined because it hurts not only his feelings, but his ego.

Go troll elsewhere please

Only the IU administration could fumble hiring such a sure thing.

I would be surprised if IU hired someone who was on an FBI wiretap for the biggest hire in the history of their storied program.

 a trip to South Bend, 3:15 minutes from Bloomington

I did it in 2:20 once. There may or may not have been traffic violations and performance enhancers involved. Either way, the statute of limitations has well expired on that ride.

But he’s very young and would win big here.  But yeah not happening.  Inside the Hall did an article on him yesterday.

I don't think UCLA is going to voluntarily lower his buyout without pushback, no. But Cronin, via his agent and lawyer, has a legitimate case to sue UCLA because nothing in his current contract when he signed his extension says anything about UCLA switching conferences and flying 2000 miles and being on the road for a week at a time every other week. Rather than going to court, UCLA could ultimately agree to a reduced buyout.

If someone made a chart of my work productivity, there would be a pretty horrifying dip from late Feb through whenever we get the official announcement lol. BTB takes priority over my employer all day every day.

RTZ said it was always Stevens. Since then a new poster has come out and said IU will be looking at black coaches with Woodson leaving and Minnesotas coach on the hot seat leaving no black head coaches in the league. 
 

Norman has a direct contact into the process, but that contact hasn’t told him anything. He speculates what is said to him and has said IU won’t get a big name, even though he hasn’t been told that. Also unusual in this instance, is that this direct person in the process hasn’t told him to be quiet. 
 

chris, gp and iufb still suggest Stevens hasn’t said no and neither has anyone else for that matter. 
 

oh and DMV is still pushing Mark Turgeon and says he’s 1 of 6 finalist.
