College Hoops Around The Country [TN opponents, RPI, others]

[hUTch2002]

Something apparently happened four years ago during negotiations with Stephens that pissed off his wife, which killed the talks. With the Celtics now being owned by a private equity group, which doesn’t give Brad as much influence, and their oldest child attending Notre Dame, don’t be surprised if he reconsiders.

You either really love you some Chris Beard or you keep up with way more basketball than the average fan. I’m guessing the ladder.

Sorry, had to misspell that on purpose as you see that kind of stuff everywhere, although I don’t know that I’ve ever actually seen that mistake. Now lose vs loose? I’m convinced half this country doesn’t know which is correct.

I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. I’m talking about Brad Stephens.

Celtics ownership group hasn't changed yet, though they are for sale.

Correct, I should’ve left out the word “now.” It’s coming. Not saying IU will get him, but they’ll make another run.

I. Take Chris beard in a second as Barnes ever when retires

Interesting that this topic came up. The new administration is considering making tax changes to sports teams, which will affect their valuation. As it stands now, sports team owners can use their teams as tax pass-throughs for their other businesses.

IU fans have been delusional for years thinking Brad Stevens is just going to leave his Celtics job and run to Gloomington. it's not going to happen........I went to school with several that are related to Dusty May since he's from my area and they said he's interested but doesn't wanna spurn Michigan after one year. Chris Beard makes sense honestly, interestingly the hot name around here is our buddy Pearl.

Pearl is always the hot name for an Indiana vacancy, or rumored vacancy. Can't see him leaving Auburn at his age, now. Not unless they do something like guarantee Steven F'n Pearl a head coach in waiting type of deal.

I‘d delete my account on this board the same day

I don’t think Pearl is even a remote possibility. If I were to put a wager on it, I’d say it will be one of these four:

Stephens
May
Beard
Alford

Hoping Florida plays Auburn tough at their place today. Want to see if the drubbing from you guys has them willing to get bruised up underneath.
