#IHSAA Boys/Girls State Tournament
reconmkd replied to ccgeneral's topic in Indiana Men's Basketball
I hope the NH Lady Cats get a rematch with HC in the final game. Those girls took that loss personally and are ready for more! -
I think he needs to come up for air, the lack of oxygen is clearly affecting his brain. The fan base will obviously support winning, but this rollercoaster from hell that we have been on for the last 9 years has got to come to an end. When Crean's offensive strategy of run and gun works, yes we are all excited, but he has shown that this does not work consistently and the same problems rear their ugly heads. His unwillingness to change offensively, is his downfall. The current team is not able to run and gun, and would likely have more success with a slower tempo, well thought out half court offense strategy. Which is obviously not in the coaches current vocabulary! Consistency is key to winning, a team that consistently plays even decent defense can make up for offensive deficiencies, and this current style of offense, though sometimes exciting to watch, will never be consistent enough to make deep runs in tourneys.

I'm talking about going back to the basic package maybe the second from the bottom package, so I could possibly catch some Oregon State games, my Alma Mater, late at night. Well maybe not, they really tanked this year as well. -

if he's back next year, I'm not even going to waste my money with paying for a sports package on Directv! -
Sadly with the actual time that this was tweeted, it will be taken as a response to the post game. In that case, I fear that we might have just seen the last game with DG getting more than a min or so of playing time, if CTC sees this tweet. I know he was limited due to "injury" the past few games, but it really seemed that DG has been on Crean's "S**t" list for most of the season. Which is really sad, because the times that he has been in games, he seems to be the only guard that has a decent "court" vision and can successfully pass the ball to someone, especially the post, other than the bench and/or refs. If this is really a response to the post game presser, I really think it is shedding light on what is going on behind the closed doors of IU Basketball. To me there must not be anything happening, besides running sprints, jacking up threes, and practicing the half court 3pt line death weave! I really believe Crean's comments were out of line, there are plenty of other options when you aren't getting your message across to your team. It starts with pine time!!! But I'm not convinced that he truly understands what that means. Like several have already stated, if your starters are playing like you want, there's the bench, there are plenty of other players that are perfectly capable of 3 shot attempts in a first half! Our freshman guards have shown spurts of being good, but you can't expect them to play consistently with limited minutes and only playing in a game here and maybe a game next week. There is no flow for these kids to settle into to find their rhythm. At several points yesterday, I would have preferred that Green, Jones, and Gelon ran the show with Morgan/McSwain running the wing, and Davis in the post. Yes I said McSwain, at least he was attempting to hustle and motivate the team! Michigan had no answer for Davis, NONE, and he only plays 14 minutes. I don't really know what Crean's challenge to the team was before the game, but it sure does look like he really pi**ed them off!

Damn, should start calling him slippery crean! No coach should make that type of comment about his players! Yes several obviously didn't show up, again! But there were still players that showed determination and were trying to rally the team! Davis was out to win, mcswain even showed something tonight and tried to motivate, but I truly think that coach has lost the team completely, but still tries to make face by passing the blame like always Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app
