Are you kidding me? Crean is a horrible coach. I bet he doesn't even know what a shooting guard is. He's fooling the whole fan base and has been for seven years. This guy is a phony... getting football recruits to play basketball. THIS IS INDIANA. What's the meaning of this?


I don't know if you're being sarcastic to me or just in general but I was just putting it out there so this board would know. I have no problem with it personally but doubt he'll ever play bball as it usually doesn't workout.

Please tell me your kidding? Please......I do agree with the coaching....he needs to reevaluate some things....but recruiting and scouting.....Crean and his assistants know what they are doing and know what talent they see....or else they wouldn't be coaching at D1 or any level of college basketball. If this kid has enough talent to play basketball and football then let him play..... Who says two sport athletes don't belong on the court or field....I hope this kid becomes the next big thing in football and basketball. Oh and when it comes to talent Vic wasn't the highest rated player and look what happened. I hate when people attack the coaches and players or recruits. I'd rather have Crean coaching because he cares about IU and its fans....I don't want someone who will use IU as a stepping stone.

I'm done, everyone have a wonderful evening and Christmas. And a happy new year... My rant is over

While not too practical, IU has precedent of several players doing this.  Ever hear of Quinn Buckner?

Actually not that new....... But thanks for the concern bud. Just don't like shots fired at recruits or future hoosiers. Just wanted to say something. Sorry I ruffled feathers but not really

While I agree with some of what you say I must ask. Does Vic get cancelled out by Hollowell?
I see many people point to Vic and use him as maybe validation for Crean. I personally feel the majority of the credit for that development should go to Victor. The young man has a tremendous work ethic and attitude.
Not really wanting to take issue with you I just grow a little frustrated with that connection.
TBH, I thought Will and Cody would both be better in their last year than they were. Thought Hollowell had some potential.
Just thinking...
