TOM CREAN FIRED

It's so bad man lol. It is comical though. It's why I drink during games to make it even more funny

I don't drink much.  Besides I've never been able to drink an ugly girl pretty so there is not enough alcohol to help this team.

Crean is making 3 and Donovan is easily more than twice the coach.  On the off chance that Crean is worth 3 then Donovan is worth 7.



Exactly!! And even if Donovan left OKC we would be in a bidding WAR. It isn't like we would be the only place he could go. A few NBA teams will surely make a run which will drive up his price. 7 or 8 is what he will get if a move is made. Honestly if we had it I would be okay with 10 million. He would be the highest paid and I am fine with that. Cal has 5 years maybe and Coach K as well. Then Roy in 10 or less as well as Pitino. Billy D's got 15-20 years left. Make him happy and pay him enough to where when the UK or Dukes open up he dont listen.

One of my good friends is a Louisville fan and he asked me about Kenny Johnson. Obviously he wouldn't be hired as IU's next head coach but does anyone think he could eventually be a good coach one day ??

Yes. I think he would be a good high mid major coach. I don't think he could jump straight into power 5 and win though. He seems to really have a strong relationship with players which would certainly help him.

Sounds like things are getting interesting out in Raleigh.

Best part is on twitter their fans obviously want Archie but the name I have seen second most.....BRUCE WEBER!!!!! Lol hilarious. Maybe they would just take Crean. If they want Weber they can't even say a bad word about Crean hahaha.

Goodman also said he knows 3 high major teams that are doing the same thing as NC State with feelers trying to see whose interested in their job. My guess Illinois, Missouri, and the third seems hard but it could be us. I can't think of anyone else

I was talking with a coworker today and he brought up a good question: When did you know Tom Crean wasn't the right fit for IU?

He responded that he knew he was not the right coach in Creans third year, when he was at a game and Crean made a bizarre substitution, he and his friend looked at each other and said "oh gosh we made a mistake", then saying at least Mike David knew who his 5 best players were.

I responded that I felt Crean was the wrong fit, not when IU got embarrassed in the S16, but the following year. Crean should have been so mad about the S16 loss that he spent the entire offseason drooling over it and finding ways to beat the **** out of Syracuse the next time they play, instead we played Syracuse in the ACC challenge and got embarrassed again.

When did you know he was the wrong fit?


Late revelation for me but when he couldn't draw up one effective inbound play several times against Penn St at home. Like it had never been practiced.

Porter and Davis coming next year. I don't see them doing that. Could jeopardize losing Porter all together. Could be though, but imo they give him one more year.

Both porters. Younger one is thinking of reclassifying to play next year as well

How much talent does he need to win though? There was some crazy stat that he's had more first rounders that have not played an NCAA tourney game than any other program in the nation.
