Golfman25 Posted February 14 Posted February 14 1 hour ago, Dave from Dayton said: What's the hurry? Just because fans want an answer. Immediate gratification R us. Maybe Brad has to get back from his meeting with the Lealtor checking out houses on Lake Monroe. Maybe Brad's better half is seeking to become the representative of all of the basketball players on the Pacers as well as the Celtics. Maybe Brad wants two weeks and other coaches are still coaching games. Patience grasshopper. The "hurry" as you put it relates to commitment and desire. If someone offered you your dream job with great money, would you say: 1) Well, let me think about it. I'll let you know in two weeks. Or 2) Damn right, when can I start. I get it, there are logistics and family issues in play here, but if this is what he wants to do, and his family is behind him, then decide already. The hesitation has me concerned that he would be here under some type of "duress" -- he came but family is unhappy, doing it for the money, etc. Are we going to get maximum effort from him? IDK.

Since this is the NEWS thread, I won't bog it down by analyzing the results in this thread but just put a link to the thread below. And as promised, I will release a part 2 of the that thread soon. https://btownbanners.com/topic/14831-potential-coaches-approval-rating-poll-closes-thursday-at-midnight/ I really am surprised how low the Cronin approval rating is. While he's not near the top of my list, he's set to have 12 consecutive upper half conference finishes with seven of the twelve being titles or runner ups and 13 tourney appearances in 14 seasons (excluded the COVID year when his team would have made it but the tournament wasn't held). Again, might not be in my top five choices but a nice down the list option. Redcamaro, Pagoda, cybergates and 2 others 4 1

Celtics next game is in Philadelphia, but that's not until the 20th and after the All-Star break. Maybe they are checking on Joel Embid's chances of entering the portal. Chris007 1

Golfman25 Posted February 14 Posted February 14 55 minutes ago, Hoosierfan2017 said: If we gave Brad a deadline that’s a good sign that Scott knows what he’s doing. We can’t sit back and wait for Brad to make a decision. He either wants the job or he doesn’t. Schools like Michigan are looking to lock their guys up now that they know we have an opening. If the deadline passes then Scott needs to make a hard pivot to Dusty. I understand that there are limits on what you can do during the season, but it needs to be conveyed to Dusty that we’re prepared to back up the brinks truck the second we’re allowed to do so. I’m that confident in him now. Scott has to move on Dusty now. Don't wait. First one who says yes gets the job. "Hey Brad, you snooze, you lose." Hoosierfan2017, T White and Mopladysman 3

Just saying. Well if he called him "Johnny Cougar" that would be a hard no. Besides, if he's needed get Pam involved -- I think they have a secret crush. :) Dave from Dayton 1
