Because we haven't had a Brad Stevens thread in a week or so. Thought I might put a target on my back with all the "Brad isn't coming here and never was" group. I had him at 0% once he took the Admin job with the Celts, of EVER coaching IU. I raised those odds to 10% after Seth Davis' announcement last spring. I would STILL like to hear from SD and get some input on why he released that statement. Maybe he WAS just spit-balling for clicks. Maybe he did/does know something. I'd like to know. I put the chances of BS coming to IU at 20% with some of the "We've got a guy who's considering and isn't coaching college ball right now" smoke. I raised the chances to 35% (mabye 40%) with the "Meeting in Miami over All-Star weekend" bullshiz. (Any word on how that meeting went BTW?). I lowered it back down to 1% after the "I am not a Candidate" news/fake news. NOW, when I say 35%, keep in mind there is still 65% in that equation that I feel the end results will fall in the negative category. Look, we are the guy in high school who got dumped by his GF (yeah, yeah, yeah we did the dumping but obviously we hoped it wouldn't come to that), and is looking around at ALL the girls he can score with. Man, it's interesting to be in that position, and sure, he doesn't have much of a chance with many of those gals but it sure is fun to talk about it with the guys over a few cold beers. I don't want Scott Drew coaching at IU. I don't want that Golden stalker dude coaching at IU. Hell, let's dig Bob Huggins out of the bar/scrap heap, change his oil and set him in motion.

IU is now like the guy who is hoping his cousin can go to the Prom with him because every other decent girl said no. It is the singe of desperation.

BTBs is the site for discussion of Stevens. Bring your tin foil hat. It's an interesting place.

I'm assuming that this wall of text just says, "Brad isn't coming."

Bunch of old, flabby dudes gossiping like twelve year old girls.
Big time insiders over there like Zion, Chris and Yeagley say it's a done deal if not already. Brad is signing the contract any minute now. Gotta put out a lot of smokescreens though as the announcement won't come for a while.

It's like Q level stuff over there. They're all nuts.

How very 2021 of them.
 
Yeah he probably mistook delirium tremors for seizure.

I think you stole this from me on the Purdue site but it’s all good 😊

IU basketball reminds me of that prom queen in high school you see at the 25 year reunion. Back in High school she was the most popular and one of the hottest girls in school. At the 25 year reunion she’s unrecognizable - put on a ton of weight, still lives in the same town but in a trailer park now and has a krunk habit. Nobody wants to date her anymore but she’s trying to remind you how great she was in HS.

She doesn’t realize the landscape has significantly changed in the past 25 years - getting back to her prom queen years is her fantasy. She’s now playing glory days in her trailer hoping her old friends will return her calls. Her best friend Brad has found a new life away from her hometown. It’s a sad story.
 
In all seriousness you guys will hire a legit coach and turn it around - I know that Stevens was your 5 star - no pun intended - well maybe - but I think Brownell is your guy - great coach - give him the resources and I think he’s a home run
