Still not bought in. I'll believe it when I see him announced

Much better argument for not having Cronin, than "he lost to a team he shouldn't have"

I was trying to be kind. Lol

Therein lies the problem! ;)

So no coach in consideration can have a loss to a team they shouldn't lose to? I guess that rules out every coach there has ever been. Minnesota has beaten Michigan and othe B1G teams this year

Only 20? More like 50 on my list

Exactly. The Xs and Os don't exist in a vacuum.

So he can't respond, but people can still bring him up and mention the incident? There are 2 sides. BTW, I, too, am tired of seeing it rehashed, but there are 2 sides and only one side shouldn't be the only side heard.

My wife said I was boring in 1990 also! Just having fun with you.

You mean the Minnezota team that has won like 6 of 8 and has turned the season around?

I don't want him, but he has really turned Minnesota around this year.

Man, I go to an American Legion meeting, and this thread went south. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk

My thoughts Stevens- I never bought the rumors and will only believe he will be the coach when he has signed and is announced. May- my number 1 and way more realistic than Stevens. Will he leave Michigan after 1 year? We shall see. F you Buckner! Otzelberger- my 1b. If we could entice him here. I woukd be ecstatic. If we can offer BS the money that has been rumored, we can afford his buyout. McCasland- would love this, but supposedly isn't leaving Texas. I would definitely reach out to him. Pearl- great coach, but I'm torn. I don't like Illinois, but liked what he did during the DT recruitment even less. Having said that, I will support him if he is hired. Beard- I am very much a no on him because of the DV incident. Rarely is DV a one time thing. If IU does a very deep dive into this incident and finds out it never happened before or since, I could support him. As of right now, though, I am a no. McCollum-I like the way he coaches. But would the fan base be patient. If he would be hired, I will support him. I would support Cronin, but not in love with the hire. I saw a post a few days ago that he was talking to someone who was not currently coaching. I would love to see that be Bennett or even try to pull Jay Wright back. I can't see either. Sorry for the long post

I've never been much of a hockey, maybe because I never took the time to understand it, but man that game gave me the chills. I was 15 at the time and hearing the chants of USA at the end of the game and Michaels' call is one of my favorite sports moments of all time. "Do you believe in miracles" is right there with Jack Buck's "Go Crazy Folks" and "I can't believe what I just saw" as my favorite all time calls.

McCollum?

Just found the time to check this thread out. I'm only 20 pages behind instead of 30 to 40. Lol

I didn't take it personal. You are correct. Mai ly why I posted about people being on here 24/7.

I would also. Maybe then he would become an IU fan instead of an U of I fan.

Nah, just don't have the luxury of being on here 24/7 like some of you. BTW, the Wooden Shoes are one of the premier HS basketball programs here in Illinois.

Well, I can't be on here 24/7. I posted this first thing when I logged on. I just went through 30 pages to catch up to your response. I wish I could be on here as much as some of you are. It's like this is the only thing some of you have to do all day. It must be nice.

Amazing isn't it?

Creighton isn't in a mid major

A friend of mine, who is an Illinois fan, sent this to me on FB. It isn't entirely wrong. Sent from my SM-S908U using Tapatalk
