I didn’t say anything to or about them so you can remove me from your ignorant, condescending and homophobic comment and take your own advice. 

Oh you’re BIG mad. Homophobic? Right on.

We still love you @Chris007 and @JerryYeagley23

Yep.  More than one guy who can turn the program around.  Just got to bring one in.  At the end of the day, we lost Archie Miller.....didn't lose Stevens because we didn't have him.  Losing Archie was a plus.  Just need to make it a ++ by getting in a quality guy.

[IU - Kaulie 1,891]

I just want someone that actually wants to be here.  No recruitment.  No bidding.  No begging.  I don’t really understand why their isn’t one guy out there that hasn’t stood up and said ‘I want that Indiana job’.

Well besides Tom Crean who by all accounts fought like hell to keep it.

Yeah oh well.   I'd still be very happy with Drew or Beard. 

[theriverpilot 5,593]

Yeah I don't think this is happening.  As long as Dolson doesn't miss on one of Drew/Beard/Oates/Musselman/Beilein/Matta/couple of others, should be fine.  If he misses, looks like another long decade or two.  IU should never offer the job again to Brad Stevens.

I agree that Stevens shouldn’t be offered again. Not out of spite but simply because he’s made it clear he’s not interested

Yea, do some research on what “butthurt” means and educate yourself...or don’t, I don’t care. Just keep me out of your quotes

I’m not wrong. Who else would you possibly be talking about?

[BayernFan 25]

Yup BS was just playing IU for a raise to burnish his image and value.  Told ya.  Let his name never be spoken again.  Unless to point out he is overrated.  
 

Now let’s get someone who wants to be here and be paid handsomely.  
 

Like Musselman or the guy from Loyola.

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

He's shown himself to be a jackass. Nothing wrong with doubting- I still have healthy amount of doubt- but trolling is d-bag move.

Why is he taking it so personally? "Show me on the doll where the Indiana basketball  program touched you Jeff?"

[Kentuckysucks 2,207]

This was definitely our BD after Tubby moment.  Hope Scott has someone better than Billy Clyde lined up.

[ThePaulieWalnuts 181]

Not the insiders fault, Brad's just all about the money.  He should never be offered the job again, no matter what.  Plenty of other coaches out there.

We have a lot of so-called insiders that are making educated guesses and sometimes they're right.

I did the same thing on Facebook friend who is a Purdue guy who were making fun of IU.  I said all the IU jokes will be over in a few days after we hire Brad Stevens.  I wonder if IU will never get back to where we want it.

My next guy I want is Beilein or Beard

Would be VERY happy with either one.

@Chris007know from a long lasting member of this board that it’s ok . The regulars know u discussed everything in good faith. 

I will say that IU met with the Stevens family since January, maybe even end of December. It was a good fit we thought, we listened to everything they had to say, we met everything they wanted, they agreed to the offer, then went back to Boston and he got the sesame things from them. 2.5 million raise to over 7 million now. If this is then end of Brad then Scott will get someone good for 7 million. I’m sorry I just tried to pass on everything I getting. I don’t get paid for this and I’m just as disappointed as anyone

There's been a lot of credibility lost today.  Certain posters, this website, myself with coworkers.  I'm sick about it.. I hope we all learned a big lesson but I doubt most do.

The only posters that lost credibility are the people that are treating people poorly on here. The only people.

That was what shocked me the most. Indiana people had too high regard for him.
