TOM CREAN FIRED

[Stuhoo 79,302]

I might be in the minority, but honestly I don't care if he wins the B1G I think he should be fired. He has proved what he is and that is very inconsistent, and unable to make lasting change. On the bright side though we have not had anymore problems with the law since the beginning of the year.

I admire your consistency, your stick-to-it-ness, and your appearance.

 

Your conclusion? It is stoopid.

Think IU is down next year, tbh. No replacing Yogi.

Then Crean needs to have his bags packed and ready.

I don't think it will be as bad though.  We will definitely miss Yogi, but we will be a lot deeper of a team with overall better talent.  If Bryant stays, we will have an incredible post game.  If Newkirk can get into the paint, that will really open up for this team.  The biggest issue we will have is a PG play maker, but I feel the team will be able to off set that with the better talent at the other positions.  Bryant, OG, Hartman, and Juwan will have another year of experience, but a good defensive big in DD.  

 

Idk, I actually think we will be better than what people think.  We will see :)

For a top 3-4 finish as he said? That would be crazy.

Depends on the record of that top 3-4 finish.

We still have people that can knock down shots. Not at this rate though. We would definitely be an inside out team which would be different.

James and Rojo are both excellent 3 ballers percentage wise.

Could Crean adjust? That'd be the biggest mystery of the year.

I am not a Crean apologist but I don't hate the guy either. Regardless, I'm happy for him and the team on the B1G Championship. He's shown a lot of growth this year.

 

BUT, as much as we can celebrate the B1G Championship and be happy about it (and rightfully so), he will ultimately be judged by how this team does in the tourney. We would all gladly forego the conference 'ship for a final four run. Excited to see how it goes for him and the team. It's just so refreshing to see a team performing well at the end of the season and even better is it is likely due to his adjustments throughout the season.

 

CTC has my vote for next year as of now......but things can change quickly.

He seems to have adjusted pretty well this year!

[X-Hoosier 529]

He seems to have adjusted pretty well this year!

Adjusted to what though? A team of 3 point shooters? That's exactly what he knows. Next year won't be like that.

Kill the thread...!

You're seriously going to claim knowledge of what's going to happen next year, with an unknown roster, in a league of teams with unknown rosters? Wow

You can call me what you want. Fact is we all want consistency. He shouldn't get a pass just because Yogi leaves. Maybe he should have went and got a PG instead of Gelon.

We don't know anything about him and he was turnover prone at Pitt.

But, you said you knew nothing about him.
