What does this mean? I’m intrigued.

Not totally sure but it seems to be alluding to something. That account is half way legit from what i can see.

 No other context..so how is this related to IU?

Based on a bunch of posts earlier today it appears some posters EITHER don’t know the Lore of the ‘21 search, or they love to be wrong. This isn’t exhaustive, but let me work backwards briefly.

A few months after Woody was hired, the most trusted news breaker in basketball, Woj, reported IU had been willing to make Stevens a big offer: https://sports.yahoo.com/report-brad-stevens-turned-down-to-70-m-offer-from-indiana-to-stay-with-celtics-222404520.html

You don’t get to the point of years and salary if it isn’t serious. The top line $70m number matched what plugged in, trusted posters had said contemporaneously during the search.

Up until the hiring news broke, the search had been very quiet, much like Dolson’s later revenue sport search would be. But if you knew who to trust, you knew there was a slow burn to a clandestine meeting in FL, then it fell apart.

No one has to believe me, but I was here, I PM’d some with the sources folks around here, and if you’re around long enough and pay attention, it’s obvious who among us is 1) BSing, 2) not sourced but here for fun and opinion sharing, and/or 3) who actually knows things occasionally.

Didn’t realize there was a song attached to it, but being it “Burn the house down”  is pretty telling

Indiana based account from what i can tell, Bobby bags (reputable burner), leal family, and IndianaHQ, Bryant Haines follow, they retweet stuff about IU a lot. If im being totally honest i only follow things related to Indiana sports on my account so i know at some point they distinguished themselves as an Indiana account.

Are we sure this is IU related?  He has lots of other stuff about other teams. If you click the YouTube link it goes to the song Burning Down the House. The whole thing flies over my head. At 47 I don't t think I'm old, but maybe I am.

I'm guessing that means they're going to "burn it all down" and start over with a new staff??

But hell I'm 54 so I could be all wrong too...

It’s a thing to leave subtle hints on twitter to try to get brownie points whenever something happens lol

That’s how I initially took it, but who knows

Women do not call 911 for funsies. They do not call 911 because they’re extra pissed. They do not look like she did after his arrest from playing around. She chose to recant on the choking despite forensic evidence to the contrary. She stated “she initiated” the altercation and he was acting in self defense (laughable if you’ve seen pictures of them) as if that makes it okay. They are no longer engaged.  The Austin DA even stated publicly it’s hard to proceed without a cooperating witness despite the physical evidence. He got fired for cause from his alma mater and was paid nothing. Chris Beard is a non starter. We are not Ole Miss. 
 

I said this before, but none of that makes him guilty of a crime. It does make him ineligible to coach at Indiana. If Pat Fitzgerald was too much, Chris Beard is never happening. Cross him off the list.

This. Exactly and well said. I bring up the Woj thing all the time. I think the clip had Jalen Rose on it when Woj reported it? Way too specific for there to be nothing there.

I used to sit next to our meteorologist at work and a good friend is a fireman.  This video clearly means a process is brewing. Despite the energy building in that cloud-fire it is not fueled by emotions. It is a process brewing.  Some are hoping one person can step in and understand it and fix it but when you see it rolling and churning like that it means the process involves many. It is easy to miss these signs but I gained a lot of visceralness from my friends and am happy to explain for the rest of you.

1.Being convicted isn't the point. 

2. Th pictures of her injuries are gruesome. 

3. Him beating his fiancée senseless isn't his only issue. He can't control his drinking, and I don't want IU in a Huggy Bear situation. 

Do you know him personally? Have you seen him drinking excessively in public since being in Mississippi? Have there been allegations of him drinking in excess since being at Ole Miss? I haven't heard of any! How do you know he didn't have his epiphany and is Lazer focused on coaching basketball now? Again, he is already damned in the public eye because of that incident.  I believe in second chances and so far he is passing very well, I'm full go on Beard kicking @$$ and bringing IU back to the big boy table where we belong!
