I was actually just thinking how worthless flight tracking will be  this time around.. Every coaching option in D1 basketball will be in Indianapolis in 2 weeks. Even if they aren't a D1 basketball coach, they'll still be able to sneak in unnoticed.

And Glass interviewed Archie in San Francisco to make flight tracking totally worthless

This is true. Just won't have anyone rushing to BMG to watch Billy Donovan step off the plane this time.

You guys are really being Debbie Downers today. Maybe some of just like seeing planes takeoff and land. But again you do make a lot of sense.

Brad Stevens won't be in Indy in two weeks. We have to fly somewhere to get him

I've nearly reached the point I don't care who the next coach is as long as we get one.  Then I can be the first one to start the Fire Coach __________ thread!!

Lol.  This time it won't be me!

Last time I could see that Archie ran a garbage offense with no spacing.  He was the only one I absolutely did not want.  This time I don't have one of those (yet).  Maybe it's because I'm overjoyed to be moving on or maybe it's because I haven't seen a name i hate yet, but I'm just a happy Hoosier fan right now.

Brad Stevens is on vacation this upcoming weekend and week.

 

Scott is probably packing his bags for multi-day interview! (convincing him to come home to save IU, there is no interview question for brad). 

 

Go get him, Scott!

I’m sure Dolson might be tied up with the Purdue game Saturday and other obligations, but could the NBA All-Star Break this weekend provide perfect timing for a pitch?

I will not get my hopes up. I will not get my hopes up. I will not get my hopes up.

I'm cautiously optimistic we'll be moving on but won't be truly happy until I hear the announcement.

I'm wondering if he will be at the Board of Trustees executive meeting tomorrow from 1:30-2. I don't think he will travel to Purdue so has all weekend to do what he needs to do.

Flight tracking is *always* worthless, but you especially nailed that point. To be a fly on the walls of Indianapolis hotels in a couple weeks...

Reasons to leave the Celtics 

1 - The Boston Celtics have zero cap flexibility to make roster improvements due to Kemba, Tatum, and Brown contracts. That's not changing for two more years at minimum.

2 - Tatum and Brown will likely seek a trade sooner than later.

3 - Other NBA jobs will open but do you want to coach the Sacremento Kings or Atlanta Hawks? no

4 - you've been there for years and haven't made a finals with no help in sight. it's a wrap

Once it’s official I’m expecting to see both of us at the airport scouting. Board members will fund our wings and beer. 

I'm sitting in a lawn chair at the Bloomington Airport and have a 12 pack of White Claw with me, so far not too much action, OK actually I've been here 35 minutes and I'm already bored AF, but I'll holler if anything changes (Hope it is not during my nap time, I'm a pretty sound sleeper)

At least it's a beautiful day, probably should have a small grill with you. Let us know if you need a ride home after the white claws, oh heck nevermind you should be fine

[Trish 11,417]

We should be tracking Archie Miller's agent. He's working with Scott on the buy-out talks ;)

So apparently the "No Trespassing" signs at the Airport weren't just a suggestion....Thanks Bin Laden

The White Claws are going down like water, don't taste quite as good as water though
