If Rabby is reporting that Stevens to IU is possible, then I feel confident in my sources saying it’s a done deal. He’s super careful with his wording. I feel better. 

Now I'm concerned. YOU feel better because Rabjohns opened his pie-hole? I was firmly of the impression that you, and IUwins0708, were/are the best connected of anyone. (other than Dolson himself)

Every time I hear him he never really answers a question.  It is always trying to beat around the bush and not say what he really thinks or knows.

Agreed.  Guy always talks in riddles.

The suspense is killing me

Btw guys, probably my last post tonight - and probably wrong thread. But Drew has legit interest in the job. So if Stevens doesn't sign, we still have awesome options. I know some don't like Drew for the Hanner thing, but I can vouch that he is class.

Happy to hear this

To defend Rabby, I think it's natural to be more conservative when you're a public member of the media. If you're aggressive with takes and get burned, you lose credibility quick and risk losing future sources. This board allows for some more looseness due to the anonymity. It's encouraging as supplemental evidence as Chris said.

Except for the fact that it was released in the middle of the summer of ‘88, and the plot of the movie doe not revolve around the them of Christmas.

Good Sir the entire movie wouldn’t have happened unless John McClain wasn’t invited by his wife to go to a California and attend a CHRISTMAS PARTY. And have you ever heard of the phrase “Christmas in July?” Check mate Cubbie.

I was thinking if we get Brad and this will be the first year that Dolson is fully in charge.  I wonder how we will make out or schedule going forward.  Wonder if we get out of the Cross roads and try to get into a TV made event.

To Siskel and Ebert, please keep it to Brad's imminent arrival in Bloomington.  Thanks  much.

Yep. As much as plastering $$$ on every one of his tweets is annoying, he has a job to do and he’s a couple stupid uses of information away from being Justin Albers.

I'm listening to Assembly Call rn and Ryan Phillips(public media member) just said that its pretty much up to Brad whether he wants to come back to Indiana or not.

I was wondering if Stevens would want to avoid playing Butler...

[IU Scott]

Rabby got burnt in the Garland recruitment so that probably makes him a little gun shy about posting info

[rcbowla]

Looks like IU sleeping giant is acknowledging about the announcement tomorrow on Reddit, said he doesn’t trust the source.

Is it the same source for all 3? Lol

And if I’m Rabby, even years later I’m still a little wounded from leak in the Yogi to IU news too soon.

Where's the "worried" emoji when you need one?? :)

He has good sources and knows lots of people. He is a reporter and is super careful. I post exactly what I hear. If we’re on the same page it’s good news.

I mean; this has been true from the beginning.  Either he accepts or not. 

[dwtaylor1055]

Just to be clear a meeting tomorrow in the works or is that one not confirmed yet? Think ISP mentioned he heard there was one but didn’t see where Chris or IUWins mentioned it?

Which is what Rabby said in his post.... the smoke is turning into a wildfire.

Which is why I’d rather be on here all day instead of reading super cryptic Brad crumbs.
