So because those 4 guys haven't been world beaters in D1, neither will McCollum? 

Don't buy that reasoning, personally. He is unproven in P5. He could be great.

Probably not the candidate for IU.

^^Bingo^^

If Fran coaches this year and next year, he could be the perfect successor there.

Beating Kansas St and Vandy on a neutral court.   Really good wins for a Program like Drake  nothing special just yet.   The argument against that would be he hasn’t had an opportunity to play the Elite level teams just yet 

so literally nothing unprecedented. That's been done before by 100 mid major coaches.

Alright guys back to your normal Coach Search Schedule, Larry Brown anyone? He is well rested right now

Is it too early to start the “I can’t believe we hired someone that hasn’t coached college bb since the 2012-2013 season” thread?

Does anyone know the uh “nature” of connections RTZ, GP, or IsaacTor have? Not trying to snitch anyone, just curious if it’s the athletic dept., agents, AAU, coaching networks, etc

If this happens, that would be the headline thread on the Purdue boards.

They would have to delete their "IU is finally going to hire Alford" threads to make room for that one.

I think all the info coming out right now is probably from very high donors.

If true you should start hearing things from legit media soon

That feels like the job.

If we take everything at face value.  The fact that he was given 2 weeks to decide and if we do indeed have an agreement just 2 days later, it seems like there wasn't a lot for him to think about.  Which makes the wait for him signing seem more like a sure thing. 

Again; assuming all this is true.

Don’t get me wrong, like hearing this stuff as much as anyone, but to paraphrase Snoop from “The Wire”, they need to shut the F up. Noting good comes from them running their mouths. Not a single thing.

Here is a summary of all the flight info we've been tracking since Wednesday. 

I get flight info thrown at me from 3 different directions, and try to sort it out, so I am going to try and sort this out here.

We had 2 planes linked to Ned Pfau go to Opa-Locka on Wednesday. About the same time had a plane from Bedford, MA (where Brad and Celtics fly out of) going to Opa Locka. I've had several people tell me that Brad has a rep near Opa-Locka airport, so the assumption was that it was contract related.

Ned's plane then flew to Philly and has been there since Wednesday afternoon. It left this morning to go back to Opa, about the same time a plane from Bedford, MA was due in Philly. Now they missed each other by 15 minutes. Possible smoke screen, because Dolson knows we are tracking.

Then this final one popped up from Philly to Bloomington. No links to anyone, as it is a chartered jet.

You take all these together, and it is just an amazing set of coincidences, or is it involved? Hope that helps

maybe it's just because it's Valentine's Day .... but ....I'm gonna say it...
