I think that is ultimately going to be true as well, but at that point something has to give roster wise. Even if O.G. is the only one to leave and only Durham recommits, we are over by one.

I have yet to see a program fire all of their players, so until that happens the coach will be the one held accountable.

It was the same coach who had zero players drafted the year before on a team that won the Big Ten. It is what it is.

Saw him play multiple games. Worth noting that this past season he recorded his 100+ tackles while playing hurt. He was set to also be Lowell's lead rushing back but the injury limited him on that side of a ball because he wasn't able to cut like he would have wanted to. Despite missing 2 1/2 games, he was Northwest Indiana's defensive player of the year.

No.

I understand why they save that entrance for special occasions, but it's a damn good entrance. The way he came out for Seth Rollins was really cool. But you can't overuse something and keep it fresh. Someone needs to tell that about Enzo.....they've taken a guy with pretty good mic skills and have him saying the same damn thing for the past year now.

PG McKinley Wright is. Borderline top 150 pick that came down to Dayton and Minnesota. He's very upset about Miller leaving Dayton according to his tweets.

He has no track record of success? He's won back to back conference titles and has averaged 26 wins per season over the last for. He had an elite eight at Dayton versus the final four that Crean had (when he had Dwayne Wade). C'mon.

This season was so bad that Rutgers sued IU for trademark infringement.

This season was so bad they just rehired Crean so they could fire him again. this season was so bad Kevin Wilson was brought in as a grief counselor.

The Longest Yard. The program certainly got better from when he started, just not quick enough and long enough.

Watford seemed very upset about Crean's firing on twitter, so I'm going to have to say that it couldn't have been anything from CWat that should have any kind of impact on Van Treese's decision.

This season was so bad, LaVar Ball beat it in a game of one-on-one.

And sitting out a year to boot. I think RJ is a more likely transfer, but I expect next year to see Newkirk, Green, and Johnson if they are here to be all starting in a three guard lineup beside Morgan and Davis.

So the author 'knows Tom Crean gets a breakfast pass' for his first two years at Indiana, but includes them anyway? Hmmm..... BTW, if Steve Alford entered Iowa as a mediocre program, he left it as a mediocre program with a former coach who tried to influence rape charges of players.

Do you remember the quote from him on the issue of being fired how the big person wronged in all of this was his son Pat, who was now out of job? As if Pat Knight would have been on anyone's staff at that point in his life except his dad's...much like he wouldn't have played for any division one team except one coached by him.

And he dampened his legacy by continuing to be a petulant child 17 years after the fact.

Sorry, but he doesn't still appreciate the fans in Indiana. Do you honestly think he appreciates anyone who continued to root for Indiana after he was gone? He was a great coach. But he also exemplified behaviors that when portrayed by players on his team he wouldn't have begun to tolerate and he long ago made this it about an 'either Knight or Indiana' situation.

He needed a home clock error to aid him in beating Florida Gulf Coast. MSU has looked bad.

That would make him under three foot tall. Know what you mean, though. He isn't going to keep shooting as well as he has -- the mechanics aren't great. I've been disappointed so far in his court vision.

If you are a big man and look like a first round pick one out of four games, you are an NBA first round pick.

Bryant is. OG might be. Certainly wouldn't determine it by a night when he couldn't get on the court because he was sick.

I think the next to last drive showed that he couldn't draw fouls when he was fouled.

Yeah, who needs 20 points per game.

I'm sorry.....but a 'small margin in the OOC schedule'.....exactly what do you mean by that? We suddenly not a tournament team?
