ap2345 Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 Just now, mdiu28 said: We have no idea. Sounds like he told Danny Ainge the size of the offer and seriously considered it. Not his fault if Danny offered him a raise to stay. Who in their right mind would say no to a $2.5M raise? It’s that IU met everything he wanted and he supposedly accepted then backed out when he went back to Boston. BayernFan 1

He and his wife are conniving and opportunistic. They played IU to the hilt and are laughing on the way to the bank. Yeah. We need more coaches like Bill Lynch. :/

Give me that guy over any of the so called top coaches If fife really wanted to be at Indiana I’m sure there would’ve been an assistant spot open for him over the years BayernFan 1

I get it if we just offered this week, they considered a few days then said no, but if he’s had months to figure it out & strung Dolson along, not real impressed with him. I thought he was better than than that... Yep and guess what, if they miss the playoffs this year and possibly next year, he will be fired without a second thought. More power to him.

bigrod Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 At the end of the day, it’s all speculation based on people who talked to other people. If anyone thought that was rock solid, well, I really don’t know what to tell you. I for one enjoyed the ride. On to the next candidate! hoosierbgh, bizzle44, Dave from Dayton and 2 others 5

ib4iu Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 As disappointing as this is, it’s still not as disappointing as what the last 4 years is Indiana basketball has been. I’m not sure any of us ever thought Stevens was a legitimate candidate prior to 72 hours ago. The only reason it’s as disappointing as this, is because it’s the most excited we’ve had an opportunity to get in a looooong time. We’ll still end up with a strong coach.

mark1981 Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 I just hope Brad doesn't end up at Duke or North Carolina in next couple years. Hoosierfan1901 1
SteelerHoosier Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 1 minute ago, Hardwood83 said: Ahhhh, Brad Stevens isn't the only guy that can coach. This stings and he woulda been great, but he doesn't want the job- so what can you do? Go find the next best coach. Stevens can continue to enjoy Bah-ston, all I care about it IU. Give me your short list of guys you believe can fill the vacancy? I'll gladly get excited if the results bear it out......but there's not a single coach that has been mentioned beyond Stevens that gives me hope for the long term success of this program.
Unexpectedflash Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 As disappointed as I am, I had so much fun the last three day. I knew going in that Brad was the longest of long shots so I'm trying not to get too down. I have confidence that Dolson will be able to respond to this and get someone good. bizzle44 1

I'm sick about it.. I hope we all learned a big lesson but I doubt most do. Meh. I don’t live in a world where my credibility comes down to who I think the next coach at IU is. Think that’s pretty hyperbolic. hoosierbgh, wirenuts, Stromboli and 2 others 5
Hoosierfan1901 Posted March 19, 2021 Posted March 19, 2021 They could make another push, but I think the Stevens saga is over. pumpfake and Artie86 2
