I don't think it'll happen but that was the hypothetical I was replying to.

You played ball at Edgewood too.  I actually think we ran in the same circle since my beastie at the time played there 92-94

Yeah? I played on that team. lol

There is a good chance you two know each other. :-)

So where is the optimism coming from that we could still get a new coach this year?  Money has been paid doesn’t mean new coach correct? Administration let a statement out to retain Woody so after Senior day celebrations, what makes anyone think he won’t be back ?

Yeah, I’m in the same boat. Need to be caught up…

This is what Cathy said:

Hire the right guy and you can give them the authority to make decisions, even really big ones. Hire a lawyer or a former athlete from your school with no time as an AD anywhere, ever, and you’re in trouble at some point. We done this, as has Purdue (Burke swam at Purdue but had zero AD experience, by the way), and it...

---------------

To me that says while an AD can have that authority, Dolson doesn't.  But IMO Cathy is either someone who knows someone on the board is just simply doing a roundabout way of defending them (doing a lot of doublespeak and then ending with 'I'm not either defending or supporting' but when anyone attacks the BOT, she is pointing fingers elsewhere) or "she" is just Ngw's alternate account.  In her version, Quinn and the BOT supported hiring Woodson as did Dolson but it's Dolson's fault despite the fact that Dolson's first choice was Stevens.

There is a Cathy on the BoT…. Just saying.

Brad Stevens calls and says he's all in. That's enough to fire Woodson.

Apologies if this has been posted, but I thought it was relevant since we have complained about our lack of three-point shooting all year.  Bill Self after KU lost last night.  Good coaches get it.  

“The bottom line is, we need to be able to make six or seven threes,” Self said, via Winton. “When you get outscored 15 to 30 points every game from beyond the arc, that’s a lot of twos, you just don’t have enough opportunities to make those up.”

I blame @johnsoniu. He said that our posts were slowing way down and needed a boost.

So I gave a scenario in which we could still end up with a new coach.

Of course it is. Brad Stevens is Dolson's great white whale.

So Boston has to win a title for Brad to leave? I hate it

Indeed. We were very close last time. Damn kids.

Even then he most likely would stay in Boston.

It's pure copium at this point.  Outside of Woodson going full RMK and putting Dolson in a chokehold at the end of year meeting, I think we're cooked.

I would do some UNSAVORY things to land Brad Stevens. Somebody tell Dolson I’m just a phone call away. 

[Trish 11,551]

Dusty May going to either Louisville or Ohio State.

 

Great job Dolson! Meanwhile we have a 66 year old dinosaur who lost his biggest recruit last week.

It said it was a source from the athletic department saying he would be back. Didn't have a name attached to it. It could be NGW for all we know. 

If it was Ngw, it wouldn’t have said source, it would have been ‘higher level source’.

May be the first instance of offering to “take care of your family” to get someone to come rather than threatening if you don’t come.
