That's why anything coming from his trap CANNOT be believed when it concerns IU basketball.

I didn't know anyone listened to his show.

Exactly, that and so he could continue to rip on IU all because he was deemed unacceptable as our coach. As they say, 'those who can, coach, those who can't, broadcast!

Doc Libby is handing out tickets court side to all who cheer for Crean! Check her post, it is HILARIOUS!

Paid for by friends of the program, Fred Glass, treasurer.

The administration is not listening to your coaching picks, no, Brad Stevens will not be IUs next coach. Just trying to prepare all you kids for the disappointment, but we don't always get everything we want in life, sometimes we get what we need!

As head coach, he is responsible(or at least take responsibility) for all you've mentioned above. If his departure will devastate you, my condolences, but that is the world of high level athletics. Perhaps he could serve the university as a mentor where his obvious compassion for others would be well served, but great mentors do not always make great coaches, not at this level. I haven't seen examples of his brilliance with strategy or situational coaching, but that is a matter of opinion. I do wish him well in his future, wherever it may be.

You're right, we don't want a former IU national champ, NBA player and coach at IU. He couldn't possibly understand the mindset or desire of recruits these days. Darn, sorry for not crossing him off the list!

No

You have to realize the time frame in which these events happened. Myles Brand was determined to turn IU into a Midwest "ivy league" school, athletics needed to suffer to spotlight academics. Indiana is still an elite destination for many coaches, in fact, i don't know how many offers have been extended in the past and then turned down. Nonetheless, minimizing Crean's failure by saying that we can't hire better doesn't wash. This team may have abilities, but they are negated by poor coaching.

I respectfully disagree, I think getting stuck on brad is going to lead to disappointment when he's not named. Try to unite if you don't get the man you want. Fans are not the appropriate ones to pick the coach, it takes inside, personal knowledge of candidates weighed with qualifications and the willingness of the CANDIDATE. Has anyone asked him if he wants to coach IU?

With a new coach, first year is always tough, it'll take more than winning. Don't underestimate the ability of a former great Hoosier to do both!

Maybe

I think the firing will come after the big ten tournament. We will be sitting the dance out.

My autocorrect turns the 'F' word into Fred!

One or two more games and we find out!

Why would you bash like that? Immaturity.

The last two things we need, Dakich's or Knight's approval and Bob Knight back!

I hate disappointment!

Perhaps the snowball will begin. Glass, Crean, Wilson, who else?

Think Glass should drop the requirement tying the tickets together?

Fans will not pick the next IU coach. Just remember, whoever is chosen will have to bring Hoosier fans home, past and present. He will have to be skilled AND appeal to the full spectrum of the Indiana faithful, therefore, I believe that if and when change comes, we will look back to the future.

I would like to start the, 'buy the contract out' fund. Any takers?

Guess not. Time will tell.

Once a Hoosier, always a Hoosier, that's why there is so much fire in these posts!
