    I would just like to make a special note that the first post on page 1000 was "M". HAHAHAHAHA

    The only good things about California. While i lived there i felt like it was equal parts amazing and nightmare.

    He sounds very much like an apologist. Will talk about how IU right now isn't playing like a blue blood but will turn around and apologize left and right.

    Mike Decourcy from BTN is on Kent Sterling right now. Says he feels that after talking to a few people at the BTT that Tom Crean isn't going anywhere. Sounds like a Crean apologist so far.

    https://indiana.forums.rivals.com/threads/a-closer-look-at-archie-miller.149948/ It's a rival forum but i thought this was an interesting comparison.

    Right on. I used to work at Wabash Electric in Fort Wayne before i joined the Navy. Yeah the field house is top notch and i hope it stays open. Its a great gym but i just couldn't afford it.

    The store on Coliseum has been closed a long time but the fieldhouse is still open. My step daughter goes there for daycare sometimes. If I had the means while I lived in the fort I would've been a gym member there but it was too expensive.

    Spiece field house is amazing. Played a lot of great pick up ball there. The old store on coliseum was my go to place for kicks as a kid.

    I could never be a "fan" of another school, but I well spend my time elsewhere that's for sure.

    Oh absolutely. Im trying to be subjective myself but i just can't get there.

    But like Kent Sterling said, if you like at the last 5 years yes 2 big ten championships, but the other 3 years 23-31. 23-31. That doesn't fly.

    Seth Davis is saying on the Dan Patrick show "51/49% gone for Tom Crean. It's real close." How? HOW?!?!? I'm the most reasonable person and when i'm wrong i'll fully admit it but so far no one has given me a legit reason to keep this guy.

    That is why i'm so on the "if Crean stays i'm washing my hands of this" train. I just seriously cannot fathom how he is retained.

    THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE!!! Thank you! I'm a fan of IU not Purdue. IU is turning into Purdue.

    Another thing that pains me, is the people that are blaming the players for lack of leadership. Yeah. No. If one of my troops ****s up it could very well be an anomaly. If my whole squad is ******* up, that's on me. I'm obviously not doing my job.

    Everything that could possibly be said has been said by other posters but I one thing that has been saddening to me is if you go to espn.com right now IU is nowhere to be found. It's march. There's no way that IU should not be on the front page of that website during march. I keep going to that website expecting to see IU news and nothing. Sad.

    I saw that on Instagram too. Thought the same thing. Makes sense.

    So, let me get this straight, Fred Glass has been in hiding, he finally appears on Kent Sterlings show, and Kent doesn't ask him anything about Crean because "we already know the answer." ??? Think I might be washing my hands of all of this and be done.

    In my experience, the general fans are about 50/50 as well. My father who is a diehard, needed some convincing when i told him mid season that Crean needed to go. At first he kinda scoffed a little when i told him how i felt but then when i dropped some undeniable stats and other info on him he changed his tone.
