Maybe missed it but is anyone considering Stevens may be using us to get more money/ player commitments out of the Celtics?

He signed an extension last August with Boston, so would doubt that.  In terms of player commitments....the problem right now with Boston is they don't have much in terms of tradable assets besides Tatum and Brown, and they aren't going anywhere.  The Nets going all in changed the East trajectory quite a bit...right now I simply don't see the Celtics being able to keep up with the top of the East.

My basketball junkie kid has seen North Texas play--and no, Uspshoosier is not my kid :)

He thinks North Texas has a real chance against Purdue.

If Purdue lost and we got news during the game that would be, well.............................................................

Your son is smart. They got some older guards and 2 of the them I believe won games in the tournament before.  Forgot where from but one grad transferred in this year to play with the other one

Only thing that worries me is Goodman is really putting his reputation on the line to shoot down these rumors... I would think he is pretty confident in his sources if he’s tweeting this stuff out there....

or he’s a clown, either are feasible. 

Not really.  One story really doesn't change anything, especially when there aren't national guys saying it's going to happen.

Announcement during Purdue game tonight?  Most recent text I got from former player.   If they actually did that it would be the greatest FU of all time LOL.  
 

Don’t necessarily believe it, but be watching the Purdue game if it does lol

Please let this happen!!! Lol

Common sense suggests that Stevens has an offer in hand and is taking the weekend to think it over and talk to his peeps about it.

Not bad for a Purdue Jockstrap...lol.  This was my COVID project in my basement.

Can I be invited? Just kidding. You got a very nice man cave.

I don't see it.  I think the best way to beat Purdue is up tempo, take their big men out of the game.  North Texas is 350th in tempo.

The guy that's sub .500 at Orel Roberts?  May as well just shut down the program.

Sooo....   this Purdue game announcement is gaining more steam.  My sister is at an event in downtown Indy and was talking with Anthony Calhoun who said an announcement is coming during Purdue game.   No clue how he’d know but that’s the second I’ve seen that in the last 3 hours.   Believe other text more than this one but....  

 

Update: I sent a couple texts out to people I trust to see if they will confirm or deny this.  Interesting it’s come from two very different places.  Just posting in case it happens you guys can witness it live lol.

That’s rude. Why inadvertently insult Paul mills like that? That’s a jackass move

I guess if a guy wants to prove he's a biased fool, he might as well leave no doubt.

Boston tips off at the same time... will be interesting to see.

Why does Goodman hate Indiana so much? Makes no sense. 

[Hoosierfan222 734]

I would be SHOCKED to see a Purdue game announcement unless Stevens isn’t coaching tonight...

He wouldn’t want them to announce it during the Boston game while he’s coaching.

Can't wait til Goodman gets proverbially body-bagged by #iubb Twitter

[rcbowla 7,045]

It's clearly personal with Goodman at this point. Kind of a bad look
