Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
Agree with you. And no decision 'to go', either. Posters who claimed "count on it, best source says he's staying" , while the others saying "already done deal" were both extremely unwavering , adamant, final-sounding, statements. Now....obviously, one of those outcomes will end up being right in the end, but entering this past weekend, neither statement was accurate at 'that time', from those connected.

Re: WHAT DOES THIS TWEET MEAN?
Croce doesn't say "don't pee into the wind". He says "don't SPIT into the wind".

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
i was certain not hearing about a press conference on Monday would be good for us but you all are right - if he was staying he'd have come out and say it. not looking good.

Well I wouldn't expect that to happen while Thibs is still the coach of the Bullz whether Fred is going there or not.

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
Yeah, I think that as cold as it is to leave ISU at all, he wouldn't leave the fanbase to wonder for no reason. I also think he has decided he will leave if offered the job. I think he knows what the general offer and power will be and I can't imagine he hasn't been able to make that decision.

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
I'm afraid you're right. Dammit. Doesn't seem like he's waiting for Jamie to fork out more money so why else would you not say you're coming back now.

Bear Heiser @BearHeiser If #Bulls make coaching change, Fred Hoiberg WOULD accept the job if it were offered, a source who spoke to Hoiberg told me this morning.

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
Good rationale, makes sense and if true it will only play in our favor.

Have fun with that one, Fred...

Re: REPORT: Alvin Gentry, not Fred Hoiberg, favorite to replace Tom Thibodeau
I'm under the impression that it's Fred or bust (keep Thibs) for the Bulls.

Well I'll have to add you to my "Can't take you seriously" list now.

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
From the sounds of it if Hoiberg turns them down, we will see a "Thibs is our coach" statement (he could still get traded). If Thibs gets fired then you can almost bet that the Bulls got Hoiberg.
So we really want a statement from the Bulls, not Fred. Fred isn't going to publicly comment I'd guess.
The Bulls aren't going to fire Thibs and give him $9 mil unless 1) he steps down and takes the Pelicans job or 2) the Bulls get a commitment from Fred.

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
And...if the Bulls have a trade lined up for Thibs, that can't officially be announced until the finals are over, which is at least 3 weeks away.

Re: BLUM: The Mayor's dilemma
Doesn't matter. This isn't about money. It was a good run. Maybe a little too good.

Re: Tom Thibodeau: Business as usual 'until they tell me' otherwise
Watch the Bulls keep Thibodeau and Hoiberg leave for the Pelicans.
