Saying “I think it’ll be Stevens” and it not being Stevens is *wrong*. 
 

Saying Stevens is a done deal when it was never even remotely close to happening isn’t *wrong*, it’s lying. To a lot of people. Why defend that?

Guess I don't take their word as gospel in the first place so it doesn't upset me much when they're wrong and thus I don't feel the need to attack them, lol. Do find those antagonizing posts annoying and worth pushing back on, because this is the internet, nothing posted here actually matters. It's like the same 150 dudes on here and some lurkers. We're just having fun.

"Boo Hoo, Chris and Jerry were wrong AGAIN! Ugh. Why does everyone like them but not ME!!!"

To recap: I say multiple times that I’m not guessing about the fact that it won’t be Stevens. I call out the guys who were claiming to have sources about Stevens being a done deal.  Stevens ends the speculation very early. I point out that they were obviously wrong. 
 

And I’m the bad guy. Got it.  

If you wanna be a good guy here, just say you have a source and follow that with random made up info that is positive about Brad Stevens. Instant hero here…

No but if he makes another atrocious hire then he deserves blame for thirsting after Brad to the detriment of other candidates. If you swing for the fences you better not strike out. 

How do you see that a detriment to the other candidates? Other than the hypothetical that a guy has bad feels that they wanted Brad over him there is none. And you can't honestly think that candidate that wants the job would be that butt hurt do you?

I have no other info at this time and won’t claim to.

Why do you think he said no to OSU (if he did) 

He was pretty close to going before he said no.     Sounds like this time he might be ready to move on from Creighton.  We shall see.   I would love him as coach but you don’t normally see power 5 coaches moving to other power 5 openings

Yep. And if you’re turning down OSU at age 52, I gotta think you’re turning down IU at age 60. 

Depends.  Since he turned OSU down  he built Creighton up in the Big East to be fighting for the top and has made a trip to the Elite 8.   Maybe he thinks he peaked there and wants a new challenge. Maybe he sees IU being mentioned as a top NIL in the entire sport and that interest him.   The time to go would be now because after this year he loses Ryan K who has been there 6 years and some other seniors.  Hopefully he decided IU is worth leaving for

I’ll never understand why people having fun with internet rumors makes some people so butthurt lol. Unless they’re Purdue fans of course. It’s not that serious. And some of them expect everyone to be falling over with gratitude for them being vindicated and correct like Stevens throwing water on coming here was some revelation. 
 

Being happy to be right online when it makes people disappointed about something is silly work.
