Thought we were rollin with 3/17?

Honestly...with 3/17 being a day after brackets are announce...if we're going to hire an underwhelming coach...it would be buried in all the bracket talk...so that would be ideal...however...I'm hopeful for a big name coach that would make a splash when announced...so that would likely be after 3/17....

This is why I keep saying this is the best search I have ever been around. Today I have had two people tell me it's Collins

Another buddy sent me McDermott done deal, I also got a McCollum done deal

I got a not Stevens but someone just as big

Last night was told the hire has been made since March 1st

Spoke to an agent who said that Drew and May couldn't get an interview because Dolson already had his guy at the end of Feb.

I love this but ready for it to be over. 

I just want to do my bracket and then worry about which player to pick for next season that one will come later stay tuned.

It's a new tournament, the top 2 teams from the Big Ten that don't make the NCAA tournament are required to go.  It takes place in Vegas starting 3/31.

It always comes down to $$$$$.

ESPN has the rights to the NIT so……

Fox, which covers BT, BE and Big 12 teams, has dreamed up the 16 team Crown single elimination tourney in Vegas. There will be teams in the tourney from the three conferences they televise during the season. It’s a blatant play for cash but I assume the interest level will be low. Real low.

I really like the sound of that last part.

Collins?

McDermott?

McCollum?

Stevens Alternate?

March 1st hire/bigger than May & Drew?

We had a missed opportunity to have a reality show with a big reveal. The ratings on BTN would have been incredible...

10 days from today if nothing is announced I think so people may have signs outside Scott’s office

Especially with the portal.  If I am a player and I have no intention of being at my school, I have zero desire to stick around for several more weeks for a tournament nobody gives two ***** about.

Who was it that said rumors this week would be wild?

Does this mean Mark Few signed on the bottom line?

Agree. This is going to be like a bowl game between top teams that didn’t make the playoffs so it’s their 3rd stringers.

All names have been smokescreens so far. Indiana is hot on the trail of Pete Bell, and Happy Kuykendall is coming with him to set up the “Friends of the Program”. Mark it down, it’s a done deal. Time for some basketballs to get kicked up into the stands! Coaching camps will be held in Algiers.

Agree.

Although I am philosophically against guys sitting out it would be a tragedy if some dude blew out his knee playing in the “made-up, who gives a sh!te” Crown tourney.
In this case I’d agree with a player taking a pass.

I can't see this Crown tournament actually taking place. Players, coaches and fans want to wait another 3 weeks to watch, play or coach a team that they probably couldn't wait to be done with? I'm sure the ratings will be stellar. Starting at center for Indiana is 6' 5" Jordan Rayford. And at PG is some guy named Craig that IU found at the upstairs pub last night.

For those of us keeping the dream alive for Our Guy, let’s assume this has been Brad for awhile, but in one final effort to keep everyone off the trail leading up to the announcement, the remaining potential coaching names are being released bit by bit to cause confusion.
