They're going to announce it tomorrow on the 50th anniversary of Bob Knight being hired. I'm just hoping this is the case

Would they announce something that big on the same day the women play the biggest game in program history?

This guy?

 

Looks like and reminds me of ex cop, Drew Peterson.

He was convicted of being responsible for the deaths of various  young wives....yikes!

Rob Lowe played him in recent movie.

Because one is at noon, the other is at 5 pm. I don't know why, just wishful thinking.

Don't put too much pressure. I want everyone to root for whoever they want to. I will pass on info about anyone I hear. 

That’s what I mean. You pass on info that you hear. We’re all appreciative of that

If it’s been planned for a while then yes. There is clearly a reason IF that dates been set since before Archie was fired.

I can't quite figure that out. There is a lot of info going around and I don't care to find out the truth to it because I'm not a Matta fan. He always reminded me of Gargamel on the smurfs. Yes that's how I decide if I like someone or not :-)

I always saw him more like Cecil the turtle from looney tunes.

I hope Woj breaks the news. That would be satisfying.

Tinfoil hat update: The same plane that went Boston -> Chicago -> Bloomington last night is headed to White Plains,  NY this AM.

It got diverted to Teterboro. We know that is the airport Mrs. Stevens likes to use.

3 hours from Boston? No other private airports closer to home?

I'm not going out on a limb like last time, the hate I got was crazy, but I understand. I want it to happen and still believe. But I want everyone to believe what they want to believe, except for nonmousey or whatever his name is. I'm not a fan. 

Look man, you passed along a lot of detailed stories as if they were gospel. They simply weren’t. You’re even implicitly admitting that here by saying you were out on a limb. 

I have zero problem if you want to believe in it just because it’s fun. Have at it. But when you mix in a bunch of falsehoods and posture it as legit info to get other people to believe, that bothers me, and that’s why I’ve been fired up about this.

The announcement is scheduled for March 27th because that is International Whiskey Day, and God knows we are all going to need to drink some brown liquor after enduring this rollercoaster.

Good point, I'm getting my flightware confused now. I'll have to ask @BGleas which airport the Celtics use again.

Reading through this thread reminds me of the story about the  little boy who only wanted a pony for Christmas.  A pony is the only thing he asked for in his letter to Santa and the only thing he ever asked of every Santa he saw.  Christmas morning he raced downstairs and there it was under the Christmas tree.  A big pile of horse manure.  The little boy got the biggest smile on his face and dove right into that pile flinging manure in every direction.  When his mom asked him what on earth he was doing he replied, "a pile of horse manure this big means there must be a pony in here somewhere."

You all are still looking for that pony and it ain't there.

Seems like there are a lot more important causes if you want to fight against dishonesty, and I'd be all for it.  I'm not sure what harm this is causing.  No one's going to riot or be killed if Brad Stevens doesn't come.

Just ignore him if you don’t like it.  I don’t get why that’s so hard.
