for those questioning Isaac -- he and ap came in this morning nearly simultaneously with the "Scott is a mad man" type of post .... as if they were both fed info about something going on.....I'd say he is legit ..... I'm ready to be hurt again

Who's came first, tho?

It seems like Isaac is just repeating what others are saying. A couple of his posts were long and had some somewhat specific information, however.

The fact that his username is a BOT member, screams troll to me. Probably Matt Painter having some fun.

Yea believe him at your own risk.  I’m new here but Chris, Jerry, AP, etc. seem to be safer bets.  Maybe RTZ too.

I agree.  All of them have been adamant that Stevens is very close to coming to IU.

Think there was some speculation in this thread yesterday that the whole AAU call with Indiana Elite may have been signaling for those coaches to get a sense for what Braylon would think if Stevens came... Maybe getting the ball rolling on back channeling for roster building... Whether it nets us Mullins or not, it's exciting to think about, if it comes to fruition...

Pretty sure Mullins is too young to remember Stevens at Butler personally

You’re probably right as he would have been maybe 5 years old at the time.

That being said…..Mullins wants to go to the NBA and I guarendamntee you that he is aware that Brad successfully coached and ran the Celtics (and will be made aware of what Brad did at Butler).

Would love to land him but Hurley/UCONN isn’t a shabby choice. We will see.

IsaacTor is pretty obviously a troll in my opinion.

Good point.  We’ll see if @IsaacTor actually does have the goods.

Or are they just feeding off of each other?  Hmmm?!?!

This could all be coming from one source and that source may be wrong I have no idea,  but I am optimistic.

I’ve got one person that confirmed the donor angle and the usual IU media haven’t heard anything yet, but donors don’t talk to them.

After 25 years of crap I fear it’s too good to be true, but a lot has changed since our previous failed hiring processes.

Just passing this along of a text I got from a friend.

I just received a text from a buddy…He knows an atty in Indy that supposedly works for the law firm that manages IU’s NIL collective. They’re hearing a contract has been agreed upon….

i mean ... everyone believes what they want I guess...but it was about that time that things started getting pretty smokey in here ... including RTZ checking in from Asia with the "we got him...cheers!" comment --- i dunno ... seems too coincidental for him to be trolling.....

if he's a troll...he's a damn good one

I want to believe Issac, I really do.  And did.  However, the pace of information today is throwing up red flags and I can't explain why, but in the last hour or so, something in me feels like I have been duped.  Again, hoping it's just paranoia but there is just something that I can't put my finger on right now......... 

The post about BoT approval seemed to show up pretty shortly after saying it was needed.

[Hornsby 3,870]

I was going to say, it doesn't matter if he'd approve it or not. He has no say.

Not only that but he would probably just get all huffy puffy and more bitter. Just leave him the heck out of it. He is nothing more than some dude the sidene at this point.

This board is making me have Trust issues.  I may start drinking, oh wait...

[lillurk 5,065]

I don’t know Isaac but recall his only time on the board prior to this week was 3/6/24 when he was early with rumblings of a keep Woody/not BoT discussion, then later that night the “Woody’s back next year” need broke.

Can’t verify his stuff but I’ve heard good things from people with longer track records that I trust too.

Another good point.  He would be one damn smart troll.  Trolls aren’t smart.

I find it fishy that they would ask for more nil than they already have at this point.
