I’m just going to say one thing to clear the air

i apologize for being a dick last night

i am an IU fan. I came here to discuss different people’s feelings about what people like and don’t like about the guys being talked about as potentially being the next coach at IU

90% of this forum is Brad Stevens tin foil hat conspiracy stuff man…

if that’s what you guys like.. you do you

The moping dick is our current coach...

I really hope I am wrong on this and Brad is named the next coach at Indiana University 

 I am happy to eat some crow on this because it would definitely make IU basketball relevant again. By the way I would want ketchup with my crow.

This guy is definitely AH1971 or his doppelgänger, and I don't normally accuse people of having alternate accounts on here lol

But but but we might be mad at the administration if you don’t get Stevens. BTownbanners said we would . Our administration is incompetent. Lol

3 lines in top corner. Go to account settings, ignored users, start typing screen name in search box, click idiots name when it appears.  Check the boxes of content you want to ignore.

Really cuts down on the noise

As I’ve said before you have to take all of this with a grain of salt. Guys with little bits of information they’ve heard share and then they begin to feed off each other. Supposedly some of the most connected posters were telling us Billy Donovan was a done deal in town looking a horse farms. The Stevens stuff has always been crazy too. When you start hearing things from other sources then you can start thinking it may be credible.

Do you find Trilly Donovan credible?

Dusty May.  After that, and I don’t think it will get past that, but I’d give Scott Drew a call.  You?

I’m trying to figure out from my old coach if he knows if Scott would leave but he’s been sick so I haven’t gotten an answer from him yet. I’m gonna wait until after we hear about Steven’s before I ask again.

I probably didn't make myself clear which is normal for me

Do I think we have talked to Brad, yesterday. Do I think it is as close as some are making it out to be, no. Do I think he is coming, maybe.

To me if the things about the meeting with AAU coaches and what was said is true then I would think that could be validated and reported by national media 

 

This is the best answer to your question IMO

Aside from the explanations others have offered, the media folks have journalistic standards to meet before reporting something. Others can probably outline those better than I but usually they’d have to get 2 or more sources on background to print something.

And that’s setting aside their considerations about continuing relationships with sources. If you know something about a coaching search it doesn’t mean you can print it

Isn’t the Billy stuff what got Justin Albers ran out of the media? I feel like he was a pretty notable name in IU media at the time and the BD stuff came from him. That’s purely off of memory though so someone can correct me if I misremember.
