Just seems so early for all of this to already be leaking (I’m a believer just stating my thoughts) 

Given that there were "smoke screens" just earlier this week it's hard for me to know what exactly to make of word getting out more like this, at this time of the year. Makes me wary...

Gotta be a done deal. Can they just announce it already

Trilly saying that is massive. 

Is it that crazy for this to be wrapped up and announced while we’re still playing? I don’t want to wait!

Announce it now.

This is going to be a long month if we have to wait through all of this until March to get the final word.  

I can’t stand the wait either, and I know yesterday I said there’s not much BS (or anyone else) could do if hired now.

I stand by it. That said, from the IU side, if you’ve got the right guy lined up, then of course you want something signed ASAP, and maybe it’s reported someone’s “agreed in principle to be the next coach at IU” but will stay in his current through the waiver deadline or whatever other date.

I think we just read the closest thing to a cure for Hornsby's Woodson PTSD to date.

Like I said announce it already and we can shut down the fire the king board.

Am I remembering correctly that last time Trilly was never on board with anything involving Stevens and IU

Trilly didn’t exist in 2021.

Also he said he’s hearing things but not from people he absolutely trusts yet.

Hmmm ok.  Was there something similar?  I seem to recall talk of a discord chat back in that time as well.   But I have slept a couple times since then.

I don’t think it’s “done” yet. And even if it was we still have a coach who’s making things ugly behind the scenes lol, don’t want to make it worse by announcing new head coach imo. as far as announcement goes I have no clue what that timeline is assuming we close and get there 

[IUrocker 2,414]

Has there ever been a time when a coach announced he was leaving at season end, and their replacement was hired and announced before it ended? There could have been, but idk if it’s something IU would do or not. Heck, I hope!

Hear me out. If dolson can pull stevens and somehow connect woodson to agreeing to stay this year so they could land stevens then woodson legacy could be saved and almost hero status restored?

There was a Peegs discord that they ended up leaving open for a couple weeks. That’s where BackAlleyGuru came from lol

One thing I keep coming back to is that Brad is going to have to address this soon. Way too much noise around him, so the longer this goes without a new Masshole 2k25 comment, the better for us IMO.

Those who don’t have “Tweeter”, can you show Trilly’s post? Lol

I’m not sure. He can barely get himself to go to a recruiting dinner. Not sure he deserves much praise.

That wint happen until real nba media or credible media can get to him. He probably doesn't have to talk to the media that much?

No way they announce while Woodson is still coaching.  But then again, you want to cause maximum pain -- there it is.  :)

How does Woodson staying for the rest of the year connect to getting Stevens?  Couldn't all this still be happening if Woody was fired and an interim was in place?

[JSHoosier 21,197]

Just tell Woodson they're offering a lifetime extension and to get it he has to meet at a golf course that's conveniently about 1,000 miles away. Take him on the IU jet, when he gets off, fly back to Bloomington without him.
