It’s only exhausting because you let it get to you.  Why do you care what random people post on a free message board.  Who cares what “insiders” say.   You don’t believe it so it should not effect you when they post something. 

For me it isn't them posting things but it is how others react to those rumors. When those rumors don't pan out then the people react in a negative way towards the wrong people. When people take things as fact the it don't happen then they blame our administration even though these things probably never happened.

So where did the Breaking Bad story come from. That sounds awfully made up to not be true. Who could come up with an idea like that to pass along unless it happened?

This was confusion. Dolson did go to New Mexico, but it wasn't to see the Breaking Bad set. It was to sign his "guy"

Richard Pitino.

Is there anybody in here that actually likes Goodman as a reporter?

Call it a poll. 

Sure! I like Goodman as much as any.

Goodman is entertaining and seems like a good guy to me.

He doesn’t have to be right or always make IU fans happy to be a good guy. He clearly likes IU and Btown a ton.

Have read 2 articles about him now but do you think his manic like fear of a level set for fan expectations would be too much for him here?

Temperament is, no kidding, probably the most important single thing in this process imo. And Williams might ordinarily concern me, except for 2 factors here: 1} His 2 years with Crean and the fact that they’re still in touch. In the course of researching the job a guy probably can’t get more candid accurate feedback than he would get from Crean. 2) The last 8 years have set the next guy up to be loved if he’s good.

The exact same thing could be said the other way

you all let it bother you so much when other people call the “insiders” stuff a bunch of fantasy land BS

if you want to believe it go ahead but why get upset that others call it out as make believe

Can’t speak for anyone else but me personally I don’t let anything bother me on a free message board.   I’ve told people on here the last cycle 0 chance Stevens will come to IU.   Only difference is I don’t give a crap if people want to fantasize about Stevens or any other candidate.  It’s a free message board where random posters can post whatever they want

That’s Richard Pitino who is young and would be a massive upgrade from Woodson, especially since he’s never had real NIL or top level recruits.

And has a far better resume than McCollum or Steven Pearl. When was the last time IU had a former B1G Coach of the Year?

Random question while we wait for the latest rumor - is World Wide Wes still a thing or did NIL and Kentucky basketball no longer being cool move that guy elsewhere?

More importantly, whatever happened to that Gay something Marie guy that used to blather on about his Cayuts?

I hate disingenuous posters. Others have stated that they don’t think BS is a realistic possibility without receiving scorn. You belittling other posters who still have a different opinion is why they want u to leave.  We’ve been through this already and you already know this.

It’s the internet.  People are going to react about everything

Fair enough.

I am sure I am on an island.  I don’t care if he is Shooter Flatch at this point.  If he is the best coach.  Our morals over the last 25 years has not led to wins.  Now we can openly cheat.  Just win baby.

He's still around. Had some videos recently reviewing corn dogs and energy drinks.

That's fair enough. Everybody is going to have different opinions of him.

No clue how I’ve belittled other posters.

We don’t know what Ole Miss did.  We do know they didn’t have much to lose with their crappy bball program, so it’s easier for them to take risks.

Their “crappy” bball program is in a better place than ours, so I’d say they have outdone us, maybe we can learn something…

God i wish I was better at photoshop

Breaking Bad is Stevens favorite tv show. An IU grad produced it. Dolson had him set up the set and met Brad there to say let’s team up to win a championship.

That can’t be real can it? Like that has to be a joke right

What a wild story. Brad Stevens and Scott Dolson going on vacation together to Albuquerque to visit set pieces from Breaking Bad is so outlandish... that I desperately want it to be true. (Regardless of who our next coach is)
