They upset me pretty badly in Maui. Does that count?
Back on topic, I am sure there will be one or two... but there will also be gut-wrenching losses to lower ranked/regarded teams.
If Crean can squander his chance with Cody and Vic (and the rest of that team), there's no way Bryant was going to change the ending of this season. Crean's hallmarks include teams that chronically underachieve.
The hits just keep coming:

Crean sticking up for Bryant. "Easy to look at the stat sheet and say he had an off night, but I have a different view," Crean said. #iubb

Crean: "The bottom line is we had to make a lot of adjustments. We had a lot of great personal numbers. Rob got 13 deflections." #iubb
If something like this were to happen, it certainly will speed up the exit process. With all of the crap that's occurred over the past several years (under the watchful eye of both Kelvin Sampson and Tom Crean), I would imagine that the leash on that stuff is pretty short. Of course, I've been wrong before. :scratchhead:
The issue is that Crean only sees what he wants to see, and believes what he wants/needs to believe. The truth is, Crean will (eventually) be relieved of his duties because of a history of bad coaching and lack of true progress. In the meantime, Bloomington burns while Glass fiddles.
Apologies if it's already been posted... and I know there are a lot of DD haters, but here's his opening monologue from yesterday... pretty spot-on, IMO:

Just saw this on "The Hoosier Scoop"... I'd say the wheels are already fully off...

Don't forget, today is December 3. It's still very early in the season. This team will get better. I heard Crean say so just late last night/early this morning.
Guy Marc-Michel? How many years ago was that? This team has 3 McD's burger boys... and this is the product Crean cooks up?
Forget the Kool-Aid... pass the hemlock.
Well, they DID come to Indiana with an expectation of actually being coached and having an opportunity to learn how to play the game at a higher level. They are being cheated, IMO.
