Walking Boot of Doom

Screw Bob Knight. Time to move on from Crean. Let's focus on our next coach, and who cares what either of those two think. [emoji854] Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Pretty sure that was RMK's MO. Talk about how great the other team was and how trash we were and then day of here's the secret formula Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Meh agree to disagree there. If Stevens never went to the NBA, who knows if he would have jumped later. But if we did it back then, and didn't land Stevens, the other names we heard a lot were Shaka and Marshall... yikes. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

damn, I hope our next coach doesn't over-prepare. Might upset our fanbase... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I mean... it is. But that's what everyone's issue is with Crean. Every season seems like an anomaly. Still don't get why you think he's a tool because you disagree with him. Doyel is a tool. Led the charge against Crean, then back tracked and now only supports him after the fanbase said he went too far. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I think you're using tool to indicate that you disagree with his opinion. He's extremely knowledgeable and just more conservative in his approach to the situation. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I mean, it's not really a great move on the media's part to piss off coaches. Doesn't get them far. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Last season's turnaround was insane. Everyone was peaking: Crean, Yogi, TB, OG/JM. That team had great chemistry. So sad watching how incapable Crean is at maintaining consistency. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Always the first to toot your own horn lol. Crean was recruiting at a high level and had a recent B1G title and Sweet Sixteen visits. It was premature to call for his firing when this thread started. Waiting turn out to be the best thing anyway, depending on who we land. Billy D was not an option at the time. We've had more time to watch Archie and other young coaches. And now it's blatantly clear to all that Crean isn't the future. I don't regret supporting him while I did. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

I don't want us to go near anyone involved with Baylor athletics. I have a hard time believing all of the issues on the football team are limited to just the football team... Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yeh false. OG was talked about as "The Guy" to watch for during the offseason. I really hate when people try to twist the facts to make the situation seem worse. It's bad enough without false information. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Don't get the animosity. No one else wanted to clean up this shit except Crean. We're talking about at least going after Archie Miller (the less successful brother) when we might instead be asking which high school coach wants to step up. Everyone who is mad at Crean is honestly a fool. Anyone who can respect what he's done, but recognize it's time for him to be done has their head on straight.

UK BB would probably be #1, but most still haven't figure out how to use their computers Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Dude. RMK said he was chill. What don't you get? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Where are TB and JBJ going....? Really starting to doubt their ability to make a move to the NBA. JBJ probably gone no matter what, but damn they've really shot themselves in the foot. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Thing is, Crean will land somewhere when this is all said and done, making a couple million a year. JBJ and Bryant on the other hand... you're both supposed to be first rounders and you can't make communication work on this team? Neither have stepped up to lead? Not good for two guys who's performances have not exactly aligned with first rounder expectations. What a weird season. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Yikes. Gotta be able to recognize when you're in over your head. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

TBH Crean is saying plenty that all of this is on him. No one has been cherry picking those quotes though. Still needs to go, just saying I think people are crucifying him for calling out players and completely deflecting blame. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Sorry if already posted, but full steam ahead on the Billy Donovan pipe dream. http://thebiglead.com/2017/02/12/indiana-must-fire-tom-crean-pursue-billy-donovan/ Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

Sooo... what's with people not realizing that the Celtics are a "blueblood" of the NBA, and BS is currently bringing it back to its former glory...? The only draw outside of the NBA vs. College argument is that BS supposedly said IU is his dream job. People's opinions also change over time... I don't think there is really any logical reason why he would chose IU over Boston. Not saying it won't happen, but there isn't a strong argument why it's even reasonable to think it could happen.
