Candidate Thread: Brad Stevens (Boston Celtics)

[P92]

I can tell you I’ve been an iu fan for decades and a yearly small time donor for 30 years, but was ready to just hang it up and get out of the varsity club after Davis, Sampson, Crean and Miller. I’m more excited about IU right now than I have been since December 10, 2011–If Stevens is coming can we get Watford to make the announcement from just beyond the three point stripe, because this will be as exhilarating as that— this time we really Will Be Back!

Goodnight everybody. Here is to tomorrow being the day.

If not, I will see you all in therapy!

Someone posted earlier "Brad Company", complete with lyrics.  I am on board with that, but has to be the '70s Bad Company version for me.

I'd argue the games with Ainge, and being a god in Indiana for atleast 4 years are the only real factors.  They have enough money at this point that she can visit home whenever she wants, Brad isn't home often from Oct-July-ish anyway.  Not to mention they have middle/high school children they'd be moving to a relatively unfamilar place and new schools.

First off Indiana Elite, Bloomington South has a spot for his son, daughter at Jackson Creek best middle school. 7 million here vs 4.6 there is huge with the price of living in each place.

Another homeless wanderer from HSN here (sorry not an insider, but do enjoy posting stats/trends). Love Assembly Call but Ryan does try to act a little smarter than he is at times and I'm not sure he's that much in the know. In the 19-20 season when Fire Archie talk came up in a post-game youtube show he was saying how we wouldn't because of the buyout and when several people in chat mentioned how his contract (like Crean's and most coaches) have it so a new job cancels out a good portion of the buyout he looked dumbfounded when he was reading it. Know Chris or IUWins did mention that the schools do still need to have the money for bookkeeping reasons but I just know he isn't always totally on his stuff. That being said, I've been listening to Assembly Call since 2015 and he is a nice perspective change from Jerrod/Andy/Coach.
 
 

Fair. And Pritchslap would be better if I'm being honest. Welcome to BTB

No he won’t. He isn’t coming to IU because Jeff Goodman said so.

For Indiana not being a “top” job anymore they sure do ask coaches about us a lot

I just want to rub it in some individuals faces as soon as it’s announced. The suspense is driving me crazy lol 

Should we have a thread with a running lost of posters and updating each time someone gets banned from a Purdue and Kentucky board? Lol. (Not promoting it, just feeding off your post)

He’ll say I’m flattered but I’m the Celtics coach. And then everyone will panic on Twitter and we’ll panic here for a second. 
 

Then we’ll realize it’s all just Brad playing it off, he’s coming home by the end of the weekend. Monday rolls around and it’s announced Steve Alford is the new head coach. 
 

Ive seen this show before :(

Celtics play tomorrow at 4:30PT. So this has to be announced before then yes?

I don't think it necessarily has to be announced tomorrow but if it is then probably before then yes

[rcbowla]

It wouldn't allow me to react to this post. So I'll just leave this here... *Heart*

Again to both of you......I was on your side!

Not to mention Culver's apparently.

[rcbowla]

When did we reach a certain number of likes? I’ve never seen this before. 

I tried to give you more than 1.......said no you can't

It doesn’t have to. For all we know Scott could be close to signing John Belien (despite info from our trusted folks that we love)

Its very interesting that we have this much chatter about Brad Stevens in general. It’s from people in the know as well. The Billy D stuff was strictly Twitter and Albers. 
 

This is different. For whatever reason. 

[IUHAHN81]

I REALLY hope he's not on Bostons bench tomorrow.
