Very wired-in sources have told me that Marty Simmons is driving to Bloomington at this very moment.

Hinkle's is having a burger bonanza.

Listening to Hysterics podcast with Rabby, honestly not anything even worth summarizing. They’re so enraged over being cut out they can’t help themselves when it comes to discussing the men’s basketball program. Great way for them to ensure the next coach wants no part of giving them access to anything. Yeesh

There something happening here.  What it is ain't exactly clear...

Battle lines being drawn.

Nobody's right if everybody's wrong.

 After yesterday's firestorm seems quite apt.

I feel some responsibility with what I posted out of frustration and for that I apologize.

Well, you know, things changed. 

Apparently the brain trust built consensus faster than expected.

Thanks for saving me from wasting my time.

However I would recommend, as I posted on a football thread, their interview with Kamara who is an interesting, smart guy. His takes on Cig, college football today etc are worthwhile.

I get it but I wouldn’t write it off this time 

In my case I can’t write it off because I’ve never for a single second wrote it on. But I’ll be pleased as punch to be wrong.

but you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.  Keep shooting away and come on home Brad!  Actually, have Goode shoot the offer over to Brad.  He's near the top in 3pt shooting % in the Big Ten this season. 

Do you really miss them if you don’t take them though?

I’ll bet the Sisley household is excited today.

I wonder what Mullins will be thinking if (BIG IF) Steven’s ends up in Bloomington.

So is there a press conference set for today or did I read something wrong

If Woodson’s retirement is announced today or tomorrow, I think everybody would be rooting for IU to beat Michigan — no need to root for a loss to get Woodson gone.

Nothing scheduled as of yet.

Someone jokingly said it was set for 10 minutes after the trade deadline.

IMO, if the announcement is only about Woodson retiring, it would come through a department release and not a press conference.

Trilly chimed in this morning and said that he isn't hearing anything about IU other than Beard wants the job. His agent is pushing that big time. He said that is unusual because if IU was talking with or vetting college coaches there would be rumblings. He hasn't heard much other than IU having interest in Dusty. If IU is talking to an NBA guy it would make sense as to why he's not hearing anything. He also confirmed what I said which is that Scott and Brad's relationship makes this a different situation.

Did Trilly comment that if it was an NBA guy he wouldn’t hear about it, or was that what you took from his message? Is Trilly entertaining the thought of Brad? I feel like that could be very telling if he’s at least talking about it as such a plugged in person.

Can we all just get serious?  This is important information and jokes only adds to the rumors.  By the way, I heard Woodson was shaving his goatee at 3:10!  ;)
