Brad was never seriously considering the job, no matter what any posters here were told.  I believe they believed it. I’m not calling them liars. But it just wasn’t happening. 

What Butler forum was the rumor on?

Relatedly: Brad was never seriously considering the job, no matter what any posters here were told.  I believe they believed it. I’m not calling them liars. But it just wasn’t happening. 

Yeah, ok.....

Why is it absurd for IU to want a $50mm buyout if another program would try to hire Stevens?  If IU is Brad's "dream job" and IU is going to make a commitment to Brad by paying out a $10mm buyout to a current coach and pay Brad a contract in the TOP 2 of all of college basketball why shouldn't IU want to recoup some of that investment and the cost of replacing him if he were to bail??   Maybe you structure so that the buyout is only that large if another college team, and a lower buyout if another NBA program came calling so IF he decides college REALLY isn't for him even at his dream school he can more easily transition back??

Crazy to blow up a deal over that. But I can’t say I believe that. Don’t think Dolson would let that be the stickler. 
 

Who would ultimately care anyhow? Say he comes here for six years and wins a title restoring IU to greatness. The Lakers then want to hire him. It’d be awful to lose him to the pros but it’s a net positive for IU, either way. Seems like internet nonsense.

Again, not calling you a liar, but your “sources” as I understand it are many degrees removed and on the IU side.

 

mine...aren’t. 

Edit. Deleted because why bother.

All of these people coming out of the woodwork to **** on information that quality posters decide to share with us need to seek help. Same thing with the "Brad was never considering IU crowd." That mentality is the problem with this fan base. Not the insiders and others who decide to be optimistic about something they are passionate about. Just a really sad look all around.

 

Yeah and it’s the same problem on Twitter.

In my experience, whenever someone starts a sentence with a disclaimer, it's usually how they really feel.

"I'm not calling you a liar, but..."

"I don't mean to be rude, but..."

"I don't mean to offend you, but..."

"I'm sure you meant no harm, but..."
