    11 Things I think I think

    So in other words, Coach needs to coach. Good luck with that one.
  2. Appreciate your feedback and inline with my thinking. Glass will be a package firing; a fresh start for football and basketball and the new Assembly Hall. I'm old school but we need a new one.
  3. Look at the ridiculous contract he gave to Crean and his unwavering support for dead man walking. He goes down with the tan man just like Michigans AD. He's all in and no going back. In his defense he has done good things, but at IU only one thing matters and he's pickedhis dance partner.

    (2015) C Thomas Bryant to IU

    We've hit a new low being compared with Syracuse. What's next, Kentucky? Just very sad.
  5. I feel the same, but it will be better than the "committee" that helped last time. Or the former AD and President that were just as bad as the tool who fired Knight. We have lacked great leadership for a long time at Indiana. No wonder we haven't gotten it right...politics and race played large roles unfortunately.

    Potential coaching change suggestions

    Your sentence about not having fickle basketball fans is exactly why he would leave. They just don't care. Could you imagine being a back to back NC coach and saying that. He would be a God here, and after having all the money you can spend; motivations come in strange areas. He would be a viable candidate.
  7. We led most of the game, and when it came down to coaching; Crean resorted to his only offense he knows best. Yogi 1 on 5 chucking up bad shots and hoping they go down. Crean is just clueless on in game manegement and drawing up any play(s) to put us in a position to win. If we go to OT, 9 times out of 10 we would win it.
  8. Agree, only if he is told not so nicely if he doesn't he will be fired for breaching his contract. Indiana graduates a lot of lawyers and hiding "focus" problems may get his tenure a final ending.
  9. Yes, I do only because I live in SEC territory. He is very undervalued by everyone in a football conference. The same goes for UK believe it or not except for the inbreds in their state. All the talk is always gator football and it always will be. It would cost us, but he would be worth every penny. Lights out recruiter also. Every Indiana burger boy would stay home, and he wouldn't need to leave IN, Ohio, and IL to recruit much like the General.
  10. His players were more out of control than Creans. No way Jose, but he can coach.
  11. 1. Stevens 2. Donovan 3. Hoiberg, Marshall, or Archie Miller 4. Indiana guy. Alford, Wittman, Woodson, Smart, Crews There's my list. Go getem AD or go by way of Michigans. And you may not be safe
  12. Florida has handled getting rid of Muschamp nicely. He walks away with 5+ million and understands he just didn't get it done, and he's allowed to coach out his last year. It will make asmoother transition. Lots to learn there imo.
  13. There it is in a nutshell. Too arrogant to admit it was his fault and too ignorant to realize his plan had no chance. Sad thing is he may be the only one to think this way.
  14. How does he get minutes? He helped us out better hacking his way to 3 fouls in two minutes. With all of these that coach knows that love him so much, you would think one would help him develop a big. That and his choice of assistants.
  15. When does a coach learn the things you just mentioned? In Indiana if your a middle school coach. Crean coudnt draw up a play to save his coaching life; and we just witnessed it. He would rather not call that last timeout, then to call it and have the same result after every other one he's tried to draw up. Even shooter would tell him to run the picket fence...run something from your 500 page playbook except Yogi 1 on 5. Something!
  16. Crean shut them all down by not giving them a chance to win it in the end. A good, not great coach gets the w tonight. The players need leadership that Creans lacks. I'm sure he's already said how great E Washington played and how they're a legit tournament team n his pressor. No way he takes any blame. "It is what it is."
  17. Because the man who gets paid a cool 3.2 mil a year is so terribly inept that he couldn't do the obvioius. Some may blame our leader on the floor as he also should know better, but there's no hiding how outclassed and overmatched Crean is here at Indiana. No amount of wondering why we have only been to two NCAA's in his tenure.

    A loss to Eastern Washington at home in year 7. At least we made their year.

    Crean saved those timeouts to ice their shooter. Great thinking.

    We recruit Hanner to be a beast like his high school tapes. What happened? In year three I'm still waiting for anything.

    Normally you use a 2-3 zone to keep bigs from hurting you. Our 2-3 makes it even easier to get their bigs the ball. I don't quite understand it.

    On either end. Matador d is his specialty.
