Do you think it will be someone on this list?  It's a pretty good list.  I'd take most of them--key word is MOST, not ALL!      My Purdue Jockstrap label is gone!!!!

It's always easy to see when he's there, because of the way he parks.

Because he takes up 3 parking spots?

While we're waiting on the official word on Woodson, it's nice to see some national writers admitting that IU is a great program just waiting for the right coach. And also, that it just can't seem to get out of its own way...

I would think it’s a day off for coach.  The game is not until tomorrow.  
And the team given the day off to get freshened up.

Is this what is called ‘getting run out of town.’

There should be no days off for coach when the team has lost 6 of 7

First off, it is not just any NBA team.  2ndly, the last I heard is from 4 years ago when it was alleged that Brad Stevens and his family loved Boston. The Midwest is just flyover country. Yeah, selling to recruits come to Indiana and get a top-notch education.  Here where 2/3rd of our population think that anyone with a college education is elitist and show be shunned or shot.  Since then, there are other rumors that that may have other factors...making Indiana look better.  3rd, who would want to work 24/7 coddling and teaching and selling to young adults that are spoiled and just want to get into the NBA or get their names out there on social media?  And dealing with helicopter parents...yeah, no.  Oh, forgot...just recruit Indiana kids...that want to play at Indiana....yeah, sure.  Tey still exist and are athletic, smart, ballers?  Compete against the new Purdue or Notre Dame or next door to MSU, UM, OSU and UK?  Go for it.  Very attractive.  Success guaranteed.  Unlimited NIL.  Buy your way to competition.

Well Cignetti does it very well.  Comon. 

Yeah, what you described is no longer college athletics. NIL you don't have to worry about parents or events anymore. Do you want to come play here? If so what is your price? You either pay it or you don't.

A lot changes in 4 years. The Celtics won a championship. The team is for sale, new owners might want to go in a different direction, and they have to unload some players here soon due to contracts, so going to be a rebuild. Kids are older, son is in college in Indiana, parents are older and live in Indiana. Might want to be closer to them. His contract is up in June anyway.

Previously, I worked in the management of an international airport system.  There are ways to drill into the information that you have provided.  This plane is owned by the Royal Air Freight Company.  It is flying out of a reliever airport in the Boston area.  The specific jet is a 7 seat Cessna 550 Bravo Citation.  A fine business jet. The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo is a light business jet that can seat up to seven passengers. It has a range of 2,187 miles and a cruise speed of 462 miles per hour. 

Speculating..this jet may be used by any paying passenger or passengers.  By taking the N63RA tail number and searching for details of flights, one can see at least the last 7 flights.  This plane gets around and does not seem to be flying just from Boston or just from anywhere in Indiana..

Osterman Was just on 107.5.  
 

Most of what he said was worthless, but at the very end, I think he seemed to make it very clear that Woody is not wanting to go quietly

So he wants to hear more boos? I guess the fans will give him his wish.

Woodson still thinks he can turn it around.

Woody lacks self awareness in a criminal level.

Royal Air sounds like a plane fit for a King :)

Either Stevens is going to be our next coach, or this is perfect timing to negotiate a new contract.
