Trilly has connections but he's been wrong before. Considering the kick to the balls the last coaching search was it could just end up with a Woodson extension.

I have feeling guys like Trilly just likes to troll our fan base. They know we are gullible and want any kind of info we can get.  He probably puts this out there and watch our fan base and probably laughs his head off to our reaction. It is just like when people said they saw Donovan in Bloomington and we're following vehicles thinking it was him.

Please basketball gods, let Trilly's source about Pearl be accurate... please

The chances of Woodson ever coaching Sisley are probably near zero, but I'd like to think he isn't even bothering at this point because he knows he won't be back. 

I think Woodson fully expects to be back. Let’s not forget his quote a short couple of weeks ago…”I’m not going anywhere.”

At the least we give him clicks.  Using IU fans for self promotion

He can take a back seat role for the next coach. Somewhere in an office as far away from the team as possible. Maybe a PE class or something

Maybe the same bldg. @Chris007 is moving into with no access for the public.

Is it a newly constructed building? Like, without any humps?

No hump? What will Woodson have to get over?

Old people get tired easier. They feel like going to bed earlier and never sleep well. They lose all interest in wasting time watching high school basketball, something they have not seen in 40 plus years. Thus it is hard for old people to get excited about going to see a recruit and waste time at AAU games in the summer when they have a tee time scheduled.  LOL

I'll respond to your post right after I take my morning nap!   lol

This was my last thought last night before falling asleep.   In previous searches the first name that came out in the rumor mill wasn’t who we ended up….

We don’t even have a shred of credible evidence Woodson won’t be here next year. Anything on coaching searches is speculation or something else. I stand by my post from a few days back that “something else” is most likely Pearl or his agent playing games to get a raise or a guarantee his son can take over.   
 

Honestly, the Pearl thing doesn’t even make any sense anyways. He wouldn’t get much of a raise by jumping ship. He has his program rolling, and the potential to do what he’s never done—win a D1 title. He has his son currently on staff and being at a football school he could actually negotiate him as the successor.  
 

So why would he spend the last 4-7 years of his career trying to resurrect a dormant Indiana program?

After he talked to Shrewsberry face-to-face. And the Iowa assistants.

The staff is saving their visits for portal visits in the offseason and that’s why they weren’t there tonight is what we are being told now according to Rabby. Trilly said his source says there is “no specific reason they aren’t out. They just…aren’t.” So take it how you want

Hopefully they're saving them for the next staff.

I think if you’re paying for information and you’re just trolling, that would be bad for business.

I am a bicyclist, ex road racer but not in the Little5. Four years ago I slowed down from 38mph to make a right hand turn onto a bike path. Going around 1mph the rear tire slipped in some sandy rocks and I was down before I could break my fall. Broken femur, shattered hip. New hip by the next morning and home the following afternoon. Riding 25 miles again 41 days after surgery. Yes, I'm proud of myself I guess, sorry to brag. But wanted to let those older people know, don't stop doing what you like ... as you say "old is a state of mind" .... except when it comes to recruiting high school basketball players.  LOL .. joke

Nearly a 76-year old cyclist myself closing in on 70,000 career miles but I'm nowhere near the caliber of rider you are.  I tip my helmet to you.

That’s kinda what I’m thinking/hoping. He could be a trolly Trilly out in the open public on X, but as far as a paid private discord, could be a different story.

I admittedly don’t know, but I thought it was # of visits per recruit not just a total number of visits combined for all recruits?  If it’s per recruit, at least my visit tonight will count against Auburn.  

There is a cap on the number of recruiting days in total.  @Uspshoosier is the expert on the subject.

I should have read the entire thread first as our mailman had already responded.

Oh I think it's accurate but just remember we don't know what Bruce's intentions are yet. Or Bruce could be feeling like he wants to come to IU and Auburn is going to throw the kitchen sink at him. Both can be true. 

Also, people need to remember Trilly isn't one person, he is multiple people who are well connected in CBB. Maybe a writer, maybe an agent who knows.

According to an Auburn board that was linked he wants a basketball only facility, while Auburn shares with volleyball etc, and I think it said he wants a different apparel contract then Under Armor.

Auburn just gave him an extension and raise a couple years ago to make him one of the highest paid SEC coaches.
