All these signs show a complete lack of the most basic, fundamental aspects of basketball. It speaks volumes of the teams basketball IQ. We are as dumb as these signs.


Yep. I've been saying this team is the dumbest BBIQ team I've seen.

Two hand rebound sign. Good grief.

Crean doesn't trust his players or plain doesn't know HOW to teach. How can we need THIS basic of instruction?

It goes back to his "are you a 6-4 to 6-8 position less wing" recruiting that has brought us here. It's truly a sad state we're in. I don't think Crean understands what "It's Indiana, it's Indiana" means. He's proving to be exactly the opposite f what that stands for.

First segment and half of the second on his radio show was built on the injury excuse. He is a great talker and i previously didnt give him a chance at surviving till next season but now i think anything is possible ugh. Also was not as positive as he has been about how the rest of this season is going to play out imo

Just read through the ITH review of CTCs radio show. He talked about the players seeing the talk on social media and stuff, then says it can really effect them and their families as they are just a bunch of young guys.  A majority of the negative posts, that I have seen on various sites, are generally about Crean. Yeah there is some mention of players but it is generally related to how well or bad they play. It seemed to me like a "Well opinions are like a$$holes, everyone has one, but it doesn't mean anything," kind of response. Do you think that this is more of a response to all of the negativity toward Crean and not the players? That this is how he is responding passively, maybe?

Uh oh...this might get ugly for Crean. Near the end of Mike Davis' tenure, he started blaming the fans for the poor results on the court due to fan negativity. This might not be an exact parallel, but it's in the same area code. The end is near.

FIRE HIM! This is embarrassing

Excuses. Because IUBB is the only thing in the world criticized on social media. Athletes/coaches know what they are getting into when they check their mentions.

I literally cannot remember a time (obviously other than Sampson) where I've thought to myself in this kinda dumbfounded way, "what the hell is going on?!"  I mean laughing at our games, expecting to lose etc.  And to think we have no player savior coming in next yr on top of it if Crean stays.  I'm sitting here like, WOW!
