    Welcome Coach Miller

    If it is A. Miller, he will have everything he needs to prove his worth.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    You can take a promising young coach from a lesser program for a lot less money and in a few years look pretty smart....or pretty dumb.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    No better source than "pillow talk"! This is exactly what we need. I'm sure there are girls out there who know more about the situation than all of the "insiders" combined. They just don't care enough to say anything.

    First Tom Crean Interview Post-Indiana

    I have no doubt that recruiting is very dirty business these days. Locking down the state seems unrealistic to me, even playing in the gray area. Still, from a business perspective, CTC's job performance over time was not good enough.

    Welcome Coach Miller

    Regardless of how likely a particular coach may be, I don't think a smart A.D. quits looking at possibilities until the ink is dry on the contract.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    He's not stupid but he does love to needle the listeners. Alford might be the most polarizing name on the list. He throws stuff out to get a reaction and we play along.

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    If taken literally, Mr Class's criteria for our next coach excludes many of the lower tier guys we have discussed. I believe he has a short list and will go hard after option 1 or 2. He also knows that this is his signature hire. His ego will not allow him to fail and I believe we will be pretty happy with the result.

    Next year may be rough, but it was likely going to be anyway. If we get at least a fundamentally sound type of basketball, there will be hope going forward.

    This is really the only way it could have gone. Now waiting on Izzo to explode!

    "This Season Was So Bad"...jokes

    This season was so bad I started drinking again, heavily! (I'm getting on the liver transplant list.)

    I'll be back pulling for the Hoosiers next year just like I have been the past 60+ years. But, if Coach Crean is back, my expectations will be much, much lower!

    #3 Indiana. At #6 Georgia Tech Game Thread

    I have no problem jumping on CTC, but hate to see us turn on the players.

    #3 Indiana. At #6 Georgia Tech Game Thread

    The IU administration is setting these guys up to fail by giving up the home game. That is inexcusable in my opinion. I want our guys to win really badly just because of that.

    If students on break is the issue why do we play cupcakes at home in December?

    TOM CREAN FIRED

    I am all out of new thoughts on this topic. Everything is in play and I have no idea how this ends. So this is just to help the drive to 1000!

    If nothing is changing then nothing needs to be announced.
  18. It's tough to beat a team three times....unless it's Wisconsin vs Indiana.
  19. This team is a defensive mess! No discipline.
  20. Wisconsin is just better.........coached!
  21. Because we can't defend one on one, we over help leaving 3 point shooters open. Been happening all year.
  22. I like the effortbut not much else. At least Purdue went down today.
  23. I think it is context sensitive. Self defense, of course. In defense of family, no problem. But because one got fired, no.
  24. Then we will disagree on philosophical principles.
  25. I don't care how great of a coach he was, wishing people dead is completely unacceptable!
