Calbert can be an assistant under Brad. I’m okay with that. 

And Jordan Hulls.

NO! To highlight your point, his name is just too hard to spell.

I'm sorry but I can't get over the thugs comment

Stevens is my top choice, but just like Billy D several years ago, I don't think it's happening. I am doing my research and focusing attention on guys like Drew, Belien, and Beard who I think are realistic, qualified, and more likely options.

Their title is pretty far from what was said. He did not sound like he had no interest (even said he was flattered).

Technically the exchange was:

Person: "So you are not quitting your Celtics job to go coach at Indiana."

Brad: "I am not"

SO did anyone notice Chubbo McChuberson cut off slow talking Brad Stevens, likely muting his mic, just as he said, " I am not..."

 

I believe the remainder of what he said was "...going to turn down the greatest job in the world again. Thank you Boston, now go suck it."

Whats the game plan for getting excited for somebody other than stevens? I myself am getting caught up in the thought of stevens to the point I cant stand the thought of anyone else at this point. I

Beilein has proven himself as a coach.  But, the situation you describe is possible, and has been mentioned doesn’t seem like the right tier of Dolson’s agenda.  He is not the answer, he is a short-term placeholder.  Nothing about the 10mil says that to me.

Ditto. It's hard to mentally accept anyone else until you know he is definitely out.

Few things annoy me more than this stuff. We’re no different than any other elite fanbase would be after the five years we’ve just had. Get outta here with this crap.

At this point, I'm not sure he can control that. He'd probably trash the head coach (himself) out of habit.

To bad past IU coaches weren't critical of themselves.

Didn't he defend it by saying slugs is what he said? That made sense to me but yea iu probably hire him and find out every recruit in the country is turned off by him calling his players thugs. Total iu move

Beilein appears very interested though

[Ghost of Rick Majerus 817]

One name I hear people talk about that I just would not be happy with is Andy Enfield. Am I missing something? Since he coaches a West Coast team I haven't watched them play so I really don't know much about him other than the few games I saw when he coached at Florida Gulf Coast.

Only some old man uses the term slugs. I'm 44 and I've never used the term slug in my life

And the “telephone game” makes this now a definitive headline.

His name has disappeared but I do know we gauged his interest. I don't know much but they do get up and down the floor alot
