I just keep waiting for breaking news the Boston Celtics have decided to part ways with Brad Stevens who will be the new coach of the Indiana Hoosiers. I know I'm dreaming but we can hope.

Chronic is a great follow -- does he have good connections to the program, though?

I think he does but I don't know that for sure

I think anyone who has been as visible as Chronic develops at least some level of connections.

What is your all’s take on what Chronic means?

If Chronic is right... I don't know who it could be other than Stevens. I don't know if you could convince me they had Porter Moser in the bag this whole time. lol

Dolson knows who he’s getting from the start. That’s my take anyway

SD has had a plan from day 1 and nothing has changed. Even with a massive school with $$ coming into play. 

[Herotime 723]

I kind of read Chronic as hinting at beard to IU vs Beard to TX. I’d prefer BS. Like other posters, tho not sure what BS interest in TX would be tho.

[IUHAHN81 2,176]

Yep, yep. I like what my fellow btowners r saying. The plan has been in place. All signs point to that in my opinion.  

[theriverpilot 5,589]

This entire exchange.  Yep

All the players entering the portal is a telling sign in my opinion...SD is starting to feel some heat internally i bet

What are the odds on Brad Stevens to the Bears?

Oddly similar as him to the Hoosiers.

I'm more surprised if a player at a school going through a coaching change isn't in the transfer portal. You have a one-time opportunity to make a change without repercussion and this allows players to take a coaching change into their own hands instead of relying on the University to make a good decision for their future.

Really hoping Dolson has a master plan...

It makes sense in that, yes. Everyone should get that.

I think the timing is interesting however. New transfer each day this week. It really takes them this long to enter their name? This long for their AAU head coaches to talk them into it? Ehh. Maybe I guess.

I'm going to bet there's some FOMO going on. So many players are entering the portal nationwide - it's crazy. I don't think our players have been told anything from Scott Dolson and can't afford to wait any longer to put their name in and see what potential options they have before all the big schools fill their rosters.

It was 18% a couple days ago, right Stuhoo? Wonder what it is now.
