You're right that was a low blow I take it back

No, it was fair. I've had my coffee now, so I'm less of a Masshole myself this morning. LOL

Carry-on, everyone, with your rumors. I have plenty of work time to waste on this site today.

I’m sure that him and his family have really enjoyed being in Boston. His kids have grown up there. It’s home for them.
But at the time you could tell it was something that had to be said to kill the story. It was too emphatically said.

Agreed on all points.  Time will tell if Brad really does want the IU job.  I still think he does.

I think we reached out to see if the timing was right. Was told he wasn't leaving till they won the NBA championship or the team he assembled fell apart. So we announced that Mike would return, and Dolson kept up a casual conversation with Brad. By the way they won the NBA championship

I’m a know nothing who just reads things here. But to me it all comes down to what guys life goals are. He’s done achieved the top goal at Boston and checked that off the list. So now it just comes down to does he wanna stay there and be contempt trying to achieve the same thing over and over or does he want to try and achieve something else. With family and Indiana and a son at Notre Dame then ya maybe giving it a shot at IU is something he’s ready to try.

Everybody was pissed at Scott last year for not ending the IU-woodson relationship! 

Maybe, just maybe, Dolson knew he needed to buy another year for a whale?  

One more year of misery for a quarter century of glory?!

From hearing more about it I think Ferguson was the one who screwed it up last time. Hopefully, it was not on purpose but he supposedly said let's get the woman out of the room so we can negotiate not knowing that Tracy was Brad's wife and agent. That rubbed her the wrong away of course

What a buffoon!

I'm not. Last time we went down this hole we ended up hiring a guy no one wanted because he played here 40 years ago.

It'd be an exciting hire, no doubt, but he'd be leaving a really good job. Even May would be leaving a good job at UM. I've got reservations that either would make the move.

A lot has changed since 4 years ago... Buckner is on his way out as BoT chair/member... Dolson his in charge if this hire... and there's no nepotistic candidate anywhere on the horizon. If it's not Brad (may well not be), it will not be some unqualified clown.

Calbert was offered interim and turned it down so it'll Ya. News will hit by Sunday or Monday.

This goes beyond just costing us a basketball coach. What a dickhead move towards women in general..

So does Mbako liking it mean anything or am I looking at it wrong? 

He actually liked a tweet of mine regarding the halftime score and me saying it’s the untrue fans fault the team plays like this! lol.

He also tweeted the night of the Illinois game that he couldn't have beaten Illinois back in 2011 without the fans. I literally cannot hate the guy.

That seriously was one of my 5 favorite IU games of my lifetime.

We took so much crap from fanbases for celebrating the way we did after beating Illinois that night, but they couldn't understand.

An alias? You mean this isn't the real Tasmanian Devil? Nah, just my first and last initials. You're giving me way too much credit lol.

Simply a fan who thought Woodson deserved a 4th season and the chance to turn it around. I wasn't quite ready to join the mob last offseason.

Adam Howard?

That would explain the sudden flip on your support for Woodson. :D /s

Sounds about right with all the tidbits put together from the various sites 

[Trish 11,848]

Good morning everyone, busy day for me. But I’m feeling really hopeful in a bright future for Indiana Men’s Basketball! 
 

We all need to come together and hope for an Ohio State win tonight. The Tank Train is approaching maximum speeds, let’s not slow it down!

I was about to say you guys were going to throw hands at the airport. Needed something to bet on.
