    [quote name="dalton26" post="72350" timestamp="1403987932"]Wish he could've overcame his injuries and I wish him the best. With that said I can't say I'm gonna miss him. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app[/quote] I will. A good kid is a good kid. I know he couldn't help us get a banner but to me collegiate athletics should also represent more then wins and losses. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Did he finish his degree? The kid is very smart and I hope it was a mutual parting of ways. Would be proud if he graduated from our school. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Indiana Student-Athlete Bill of Rights

    This is a great idea. I don't know how this will translate to basketball and football, but with other sports this might sway big recruits to come play for our school.  Excellent idea.  
  7. [quote name="jurkinonthecourt" post="72171" timestamp="1403891128"]You said he's been to the Elite Eight and my point is that will not satisfy the critics. No need to lecture me. I bet if we all watched Sean Miller and followed his program's every move like we do with Crean we'd all be talking about the glaring wholes in his game plan as well. Sent from my place of advanced, analytical thinking: the toilet.[/quote] I have watched him at both Xavier and Arizona and his teams play better defense and know how to stretch the floor. I know that all coached have their weakness , but as of right now in my opinion ( and that's all it is) he's better then Coach Crean. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  8. [quote name="jurkinonthecourt" post="72165" timestamp="1403890032"]So Elite Eights will satisfy the critics? I think not. Until we hire a coach who will win multiple championships, no one will be good enough and some on here want to keep firing coaches and throwing this program off from the small amount of progress it has made in recent memory. JS, you mention UNC and Roy Williams, and once again, you've named another uniquely skilled coach. In college basketball right now, THREE coaches have won multiple championships. Coach K, Roy, and Billy Donovan. So who do you want? Crean took this job at a time when no one good wanted it. Thanks to him, it's finally back to a point where coaches and recruits actually want to come here. It's been shown that one of his major knocks, transfers, is nothing inordinary and should be expected. We have some of the best recruits in the country coming into the program consistently, and he's developing that talent into NBA lottery picks. He has the entire team scoring perfect APR scores. I'm not saying lower your standards, I'm saying you should recognize the success that Crean has brought to this program, and realize he can do more and will. Sent from my place of advanced, analytical thinking: the toilet.[/quote] Please don't put words in my mouth and try to use those words to support your argument. It makes you look bad. I'm saying because he's a young coach and already gotten elite rights that you can tell that Arizona's program is heading towards better results. Their teams have great chemistry and look together were coach Crean's team look like a Jackson pollock painting. The team has no consistency and I have seen some glaring problems in defense since he got here. Again I hope he really does turn it around because he really is a nice guy. But as of right now I expect more for three million a year. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
  9. Sorry meant a Sean Miller type.  Not be truly elite yet but at least takes his talent farther into tournaments.  
  10. I'd be happy with a Sean Miller type of coach. He already has two elite eights under his belt.   
  11. [quote name="JSHoosier" post="72155" timestamp="1403885596"]Welcome to the real world. The bar was set by the likes of Branch McCracken and Bob Knight, and it is Crean's responsibility to reach that bar. If he can't, he's not the guy for the job. Indiana has everything it needs to do so, all it needs is a coach. EDIT: That's why he was given a top 10 contract. He's not paid over 3 million to year for the occasional decent year. He's paid to have us competing and making deep runs regularly, to go to Final Fours and win championships. Absolutely that's what's expected of him, it absolutely should be expected.[/quote] + infinity. IU Basketball has a massive following for a reason. I hope he does great things but we have to hold ourselves to high standards. We want championships and that should always be our main objective. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    [quote name="IU Hoosier41" post="71890" timestamp="1403789698"]Ghana sends off two of their better players. Torrential rains for USA vs Germany which will make the pitch HORRIBLE. Will be wet, slow and shouldn't be many goals in this game. A 0-0 draw is very likely outcome here. They had had the physical speed over an older Portugal match. Hopefully that negates it.

    This breaks my heart. Makes me concerned if we couldn't match the offer . I really thought being a lone big ten power in baseball was within our grasps. So mad, but not surprised that our administration personnel has been lacking common sense. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
