Remember When People Wanted IU to fire Crean

[MI Nightmare]

Yay! Another beat down loss at the hands of our bitter rival!

I've said it before but had Vonleh stayed you'd be a contender.

Pretty much what Michigan is missing as well....one seasoned big man with skills.

What really hurt us was Fischer transferring. It would have been nice if Vonleh returned, but it wasn't a surprise when he declared.

He has to go at the end of this season. IU his recruiting classes latley are not even showing up in the top 25. How can IU be this inconsistent with its play the finally get to the top 25 and get blown out by Wisconsin, Lose bad to Purdue and Lose to OSU and struggle against Rutgers at home.

IU is the class act of college basket ball how can we let the Badgers own us is beyond me.

That respite from the hot seat didn't last long did it?

Never should have left Marquette....

On the one hand Crean has done all right in getting 1000 APR scores 4 years in a row and in having people like Oladipo and Zeller graduate. I'm not happy with the drinking incident.

IU is supposed to have good smart kids and they rarely have a player arrested.

On the other hand Crean seems to have underperformed. Many question his substitution patterns. Is it his fault if his players are too short ? Some can argue "yes" some "No".

In the interview Glass said, "This team overachieved early and then hit a tough patch." That's the problem. If you are the Indiana AD, you should never feel like the team is overachieving. You should expect to have a good team every year. It's Indiana!

Yeah, if I'm an IU fan I'm not very happy with my AD for saying that.

[podsox]

I can't speak for him, but I was thinking, "Tom Crean is a shitty coach."

CBB is better when IU is IU. Having lived in Indiana at one time believe me, fun times there and in CBB when they are good.

Crean is a shit coach. Great salesman.

He should go to DePaul. Would actually turn that program around pretty quickly with his recruiting.

I lived in Indiana for a while too, but they still sucked at the time... (Mike Davis era) I agree though. CBB is more fun when IU (and most all of the blue bloods) are playing well.
