GoIU8

I only laugh to hide the pain knowing this is exactly what's going to happen.

Good Lord there was a backwards compliment or a subtle jab at IU literally every other sentence in that article.

Wouldn't kill interest in the program, it would kill the program, period. Hire Woodson, boomers will feel all warm and fuzzy until the winter, then when the harsh reality sets in on what they've done, no one will be left to support this corpse of a program.

Grifters and trolls.

I mean it described him when we hired him. He made the tournament or NIT more at Marquette than at Indiana. The weirdo part is true but that's one half of one of the five points.

People sourced out the yin yang have no idea what's going on yet this loser thinks he does....some people I swear.

This describes Tom Crean.

There seems to be conflicting reports of his salary. both 3 and 4 million has been reported. Is there a definitive answer out there yet?

He's already reached out to the recruits who backed out when Crean got fired. And I have a gut feeling once the team meets him nobody is going anywhere.

I'm going to drive to Tucson and laugh in Sean Miller's face is Archie makes a Final Four before he does.

Does anyone remember how Marquette fans were after losing Crean? I went on a Dayton message board and they are completely devastated this happened. I don't remember that happening with Crean.

Archie has made the tournament 4 straight years (something Crean never did even at Marquette), made it to Elite 8 without a future NBA player, and once he made Dayton his own turned them into a juggernaut (by Dayton A-10 standards). If you're not happy with this hire there's nothing I can do for you.

Can I be at the practice where he teaches this team how to play defense for the first time?

Seems Archie is active on twitter. Wonder how long it'll take IU fans to totally destroy that guys will to even touch social media like we did with Crean.

If anything, blame Glass for the expectations he set at the press conference. This is a great hire, and everyone here would think so if he doesn't say all that "double check plus" crap, or if we hadn't had the Donovan delusion.
