Being an ASSISTANT coach, would one have to wait until eliminated like you would a HEAD coach? Just asking.

Def not that way in football. 

I remember Kevin Wilson coaching Oklahomas bowl game like the day after he was announced as our HC.

Pinch runner would be an understatement. Beilein is a really good coach. 

I meant that Beilein would need a pinch runner after hitting a double. I agree he is better than any IU former players.

Trade deadline in 10 mins

I’d put my money on Mark Turgeon to Oklahoma. Fits what he wants and I don’t think Oklahoma will get a much more “established” coach.

And he is just in time to meet the mythical "3 PM" announcement that was posted a few days ago!

The 3pm text, turned out to be when he addressed the team. It was thought that the announcement would be to a different tune, but apparently Ainge threw a sweet offer down that changed Stevens mind.

I’m not buying that extension every happened. There has been zero confirmation on that and things like that leak in the NBA. So if it wasn’t a raise what was it?

Ainge to the Masshole:  "I'm going to go out and get you Evan Fornier at the trade deadline sand unlimited Dunkin Donuts."

Ok I watched the trade deadline and hate the NBA. So is Brad Stevens our coach now?

there was no raise he just didn't want to leave to coach IU. It is as simple as that.

Breaking news:  Brad Stevens to Oklahoma to replace Lon Kruger.     Sorry people, I couldn't resist.

What now, does that make Stevens an Okla-hole if there's such a thing?

Probably the most counterproductive thing you can do is email an AD.

Too many people talking on the IU side. It had always been agreed upon to after the trade deadline. This is just me speculating. The date was always the 27th. I have no info on this just wishful thinking

The main Rivals writer for IU believes the job goes to one of Beilein, Woodson, or Cheney. I'm not sure how connected he is though.

That list is so depressing that it just may be right.

Ok. I will be THAT guy.

We finally fixed the Isaiah/Isiah thing... and now we've got "Cheney" instead of Cheaney?

Helluva fan base we got here, folks!

[Magnanimous 4,508]

Just f’n hire someone. Preferably whoever coached at Ben Davis 15 years ago.
