Candidate Thread: Brad Stevens (Boston Celtics)

[Capt. Crimson]

That said, Brad’s “happy place” is their Lake Wawasee vacation home which they kept so that’s not nothing. 

Unless they bought a new one they sold that place a couple years back. I know some people who live close by and have seen the Celtics flag flying high on the dock.

I had $100 ready to put on Brad but everywhere I called weren’t officially taking bets a shame. Oh well.

Luckily it's the Friday before spring break. Not a rigorous day for the students to begin with lol

I do worry what will happen here if it’s not Steven’s.  From everything I’ve heard, IU has done everything they can to bring him here.  But sometimes that’s not enough....and I’m in the camp of until he’s here, he’s not.

All this Brad Stevens to IU is fun to read. But I feel  as if im reading the National Enquirer. I know what I'm reading is BS, but for some reason I cannot stop reading.

Yeah. If Brad says no, the fanbase needs to rally behind who the next guy is. But until then, go get Brad F’n Stevens.

But at least it appears we are “trying everything possible”.  If it doesn’t work it’s not from not going for it.  I am thrilled that at least anecdotally, it seemed SD is fighting the good fight.

I’ll still be happy with plan B and plan C if Brad changes his mind

[IUrocker]

Let’s say they do announce it today before the first game tips off....one of the national guys will prob throw a bomb on the net before it shows up on TV.

I’m not.  Don’t have to worry anyway!! I don’t know a timetable before anyone asks.

It all depends on who it is.  The level of apathy in regards to IU BB is at an all time high. If the announcement comes out for anyone other than Stevens or someone that has won a championship already.  That apathy is going to continue until some consistent winning occurs.

I think this is the mindset for a large portion of the IU fanbase.

Love your passion and enthusiasm through this process! Come home Brad, those gates on Kirkwood are purty nice!

Maybe it's a good sign that I have since scheduled the shot for Monday. :D

I have not found a single place to bet on this.  Sportsline published the odds but no one is taking bets.  William Hill is the "Official Sports Book" of Sportsline and CBS and even they aren't taking the bet.

Nor have I. I was gonna buy the wife some new kitchen countertops with that haul, lol.

[Me So Hornsby]

Other than an eye appointment at 11:25, I have no obligations today. Fully committed to hitting refresh on CBS news all day and watching nothing but college basketball. Let’s go

Slight edit to my original post....

I’m so greatful that I’m not one those people about to have a new born today at a hospital.

Nurse- Sir we really do need a name for the child.

Me- and you shall get it, when there’s an official statement from Indiana University. Here’s a nice dead founding father for your understanding.
