You had your small window a few years ago when a lot of fans wanted him gone, sure, but giving him another shot was a calculated risk. A risk that paid off last year in another B1G title. It's been said multiple times, but who was Glass going to get if he fired Crean a few years ago? Another Crean? Then we're back to square one for no particular reason. Maybe Glass has hurt some feelings by not giving some fans what they want, but this thing about Glass being the one letting down the basketball program is kind of weird. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners He should have fired him when he missed the tournament or when we had players spending more time in court then on the court.

Alford Bailey Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 We're are 0-2 at home. The back half of the schedule gets really tough. Is there anything that gets Crean gone after this season?? How about 5-6 conference wins with this talent and no tourney?? ALASKA HOOSIER and Happydaze 2 Quote

Hovadipo Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 He should have fired him when he missed the tournament or when we had players spending more time in court then on the court.He definitely could have. I don't think anyone would have faulted him for it, but again, who would we have gotten? I have to assume he did his due diligence seeing if there was interest from anyone and probably wasn't convinced that there was an upgrade. I don't think that means he's let down the program.

Magnanimous Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 I find it pathetic that even if Crean finds long-term success at IU, that seasons like this will be the norm rather than the exception. Hoosierfan2017 1 Quote
Popular Post HoosierAloha Posted January 4, 2017 Popular Post Posted January 4, 2017 Good on McSwain and McRoberts getting run in this game. Good on Newkirk for taking shots that he should never be taking. Good on Bryant slapping the floor then giving up layups and getting his weak attempts stuffed. Good on JBJ not getting enough good looks. Good on the timeout when the game was out of hand. Good on pressing with 10 seconds left. Good on an absolute horrible possession out of a timeout late. Crean's "great" coaching might eventually give us all what we want. CREAN GONE TO COACH AT A FOOTBALL SCHOOL. It will be amazing when the Tom Crean era at Indiana university is over. It's time. It's been time. Hoosierfan2017, CrossboneIU22, Napleshoosier and 8 others 11 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners Honestly I think anyone that coached a fundamentally sound game would have been ok. It's Indiana players will come, and coaches will be able to recruit better with the budget they are given here. I don't think fans would be near as upset if we got beat based on not being the better team instead of lack of knowledge, poor coaching decisions, and fundamentals.

biteoftheapple Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 Why not flood the AD office with emails, rather than complain on our board 13 times a day? It may do nothing, but the complaints will be seen and noted. Hoosier_roots 1 Quote
schoosier Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 I have said it before and this is all on Glass. Having been an Indiana graduate, he knows what the program is measured. Instead of next man up many years ago, he was busy deciphering Creans X's and O's and placating him. Look no more than Texas or Alabama football where you either win big or go coach somewhere else. We are the laughing stock of college basketball thanks to him and 2 other AD's before him. He needs to go just as much as Creans. Hoosierfan2017, recker222000, MikeRoberts and 1 other 4 Quote
MikeRoberts Posted January 4, 2017 Posted January 4, 2017 This has been brought up many times on this board, and it still isn't true. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersI'm not going to go as far as some regarding Glass but I would say things have been turbulent at best under his tenure. Lots of coaching turnover, under-achieving sports that are traditional powerhouses... Quote

It's been time. Crean would be fine at a non-pUKe SEC school (maybe remove Florida too, maybe), because they never would've hired him in the first place let alone give him 10 years. Most other SEC schools he could get the under the radar kids he loves so much and be afforded the time to let them develop for a decent run or two here or there, he wouldn't be under the same pressure to win consistently; don't crap the bed during not-football season and most of them would be thrilled. In doesn't hurt that at those schools the favorite sports are football and talking about football. ALASKA HOOSIER and Hoosier_roots 2 Quote
