Haven't been on since last night.  Had my figers crossed that this thread title would edited to "Welcome to IU Coach Stevens".  Just going to have to wait a little longer, I guess.

I’m breaking the news to the board. 
 

It’s my final duty as Archie’s main supporter.

Man! We went from WE GOT HIM last night to a lot more somber this morning. Making me wanna pull my hair out! Since I have none left on my head, I guess I'll start with the hairs on my back.

I still believe...

What more is there? Honestly... did you think news would have broken by now?

Yeah...I'm going to tamp down any excitement left from last night.  It feels really premature this morning.

Nobody knows when it will be announced. I guess he can still change his mind but Indiana isn’t talking to anymore coaches currently.

Given the history, that is just a hilarious picture!

No matter what happens, thanks for bringing what you do to the board. You and Chris alone make it worth coming to.

I see a private plane was scheduled to leave Evansville headed to Teterboro at 8:16 this morning. Teterboro is where the flight is headed from Bedford MA now. Probably nothing. 

I live in Evansville and have seen that flight listed quite a bit in the past. No smoke ..

But again. Like you said yesterday. If they are already telling recruits, it’s going to leak by Sunday. Guaranteed

Thought, no... irrationally hoped for... yes. 

I have not had this much hope for IU basketball since the mid-90's (except briefly in the 2012 and 2013... once we could not beat a zone with a bunch of 3 point shooters on the team I lost hope).

We all had to know this could be a drawn out process.

Unless they play the deny, deny, and deny game.

Interesting! You never know. We were all wondering why Rick Greenspan was going to Wisconsin... 

 

And we later found out...

Hit all.  Long time poster from Rivals and more recently HSN.  IU? I'm Fine and Air Ball here.  Adding my one cent opinion.  With no inside info I have been an IU fan since the late 60's.  Evansville Bosse '69, Indiana Business/Finance 1977 (undefeated!), UW=Madison Civil/Environ. Engineering '82...Dayton since.  

Worked in Aviation for 2 decades.  All I have to say about flight tracking is that those almost never track the right people.  One never knows who is negotiating and where they meet.  If Dolson and Stevens really do meet it will be for the press conference.  I am more interested in the other sources...

By the way:  Welcome to Indiana University - Bloomington...Head Coach Brad Stevens!

Just had to get that off of my chest.   Not that I know anything.

Having watched Archie Miller here in Dayton...and having gone to a number of UD games, I am floored that he didn't have some success at Indiana.   Oh well.  IU had to pull the plug.   Go IU!

[iubb 2,386]

Yes. If only one recruit says it. The more that do the harder it is to deny lol. :-)

But it wouldn't be a Celtics flight BS would be taking with anything related to IU.

That's where the private planes fly out of in that area. Also, if he's really stepping down to take the IU job, which I still think may be a long shot, he'd be working with the Celtics on that exit. 

Regardless, even if this is all coming together, id be really surprised if Stevens was flying to Indiana today.

Yeah I believe Glass interviewed Archie in San Francisco.
