I have a feeling this has been done for awhile.

Are Vegas odds still like 5000 to 1?

@Chris007 and I have funded a small get together for all members at Nicks if Brad is our coach.

This guy is in the know and he just posted on Facebook.  I blocked his name just because you never know...

Do you have anything concrete? I’m not doubting you, but the Billy Donovan scam really bothered me. I see a lot of the same tweets you do. Just hoping it’s more than just some random guys or a couple OSU fans.

Tried explaining to a Purdue fan yesterday that there's probably only one coach on the planet that anyone would give $10 million if it meant getting him here. He said I was delusional.

Same guy that told me Sampson was fired and told me the exact buyout amount 2-3 days before anyone knew anything told me.  He doesn’t talk much but when he does, I’m all ears!

There wasn't this much smoke with Donovan. Not even close.

Over the last couple days, it's occurred to me 90% of this board doesn't know anything about Mark Titus or what he does for a living. 

Ive seen posters say he hates IU (which is the opposite of the truth) 

And people taking his memes seriously (which you should never do)

Titus’ sense of humor (which we largely share) has a tendency to just not work with message board crowds. 
 

NOT meant to insult anyone.

Thank you. Mark Titus is absolutely an IU fan from Indiana that just happened to play at OSU.

Give me Mark Titus any day of the week over any other college basketball writer/analyst/personality. Dude is awesome

Agree with this...it was just Albers really. Well, I'm not getting anything done tomorrow. I really think something pops tomorrow. I don't see how they can keep it quiet. It's a Celtics off day too.

I'm just going to stay skeptical. I don't like patching holes in drywall. 

[Trish 11,505]

Oh gosh I miss the Billy rumors. 
 

I hope Scott shoots him a call just for the hell of it.

He probably would've walked on at IU if we didn't botch the Oden/Conley recruitment. That's the only reason he went to OSU.

Hopefully it gets announced tomorrow on the Celtics off day.

I was thinking how embarrassing it would be as an IU fan to have the NCAA tournament hosted in Assembly Hall in the midst of a 5 YEAR tournament drought. 

But now, think about the redemption of a Brad Stevens announcement during the first tournament game at Assembly Hall in 40 years!  Tune in tomorrow

Last time I was this excited about IU was 1987.  Brad has been my dream coach since his first final 4

Thank you for your service!...lol. Now I won’t be able to sleep. It’s like I’m back in high school and just found out that the hot girl I thought would NEVER go out with me,    not only likes me too, but gave my best friend her number to give to me! I gotta call her now! What do I say?.......lol

Did you hear Brad Stevens is coming to IU?

[IUwins0708 2,666]

Have a good night all, I’m going to try and sleep.  Brad F’ing STEVENS!!!

The timing is perfect. His kids can make new friends in Bloomington and get educated in their home state.
