Popular Post alpal206 Posted February 18, 2017 Popular Post Posted February 18, 2017 Hey btownbanners! Long time lurker/new poster here. I guess you can say my increasing want for Crean to be fired has led me to finally post. I enjoy reading all of your posts and look forward to the day everyone can celebrate our new coach at IU. I graduated IU back in 2012 and did get to meet Crean and supported him back then. I think that Syracuse game in 2013 was when I started to question him. I was even at the IU/Kentucky game and nothing can describe the feeling that night. I worry if Glass brings him back next year, there could be irreparable issues for the program going forward. Hoping IU can land someone great to bring us back to the good old days! Banksyrules, nerdvana, ALASKA HOOSIER and 11 others 14 Quote

Could we for once act like an elite program. I hear ya. Doesnt seem like cool dads style to go get the big name. Tons of potential with the guy if the rumor becomes truth though.

Popular Post Stuhoo Posted February 18, 2017 Popular Post Posted February 18, 2017 Guys; passing along the info from a pm is a sure way to ensure that good info is no longer shared. So I don't think y'all should hint around what you learned. Str8Hoosiers, HooHooHoo22, Btownclouds and 6 others 9 Quote
Hoosier82 Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 New poster but have been lurking for a long time. I have been trying to stay up on anything and everything that's being shared on the boards but the rumors are all over the place.

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Hopefully by that time of Northwestern game we will know a lot more. For that game alone it will be kept under raps. Pap just came in with the solid assist for all of us here. On the Pearl note....no. Not cause I dont think he would be good but his ego gets very big when he is winning and though he would probably get us to being great again it is what he would do then that worries me. Auburn is gonna be very good for awhile and I think he likes it there regardless. Herron and Wiley are back next year and that Purifoy kid as well as that pg his name is slipping my brain but he is gonna be an absolute stud. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Alford Bailey Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Pearl is way too sketchy. Glass will want someone clean to stick around awhile. Class of '66 Old Fart, theriverpilot and Stuhoo 3 Quote

alpal206 Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Thanks for all of the welcome's. Guess all of us lurkers are coming out because enough is enough. I hoped 2013-2014 was a fluke but this season's been a disaster. And it has been since Ft. Wayne- can't blame that on the injuries. Seems like most of the fanbase is finally on the same page though. I would offer Hoiberg to get him away from my Bulls, but I think we may want more of a defensive minded coach...just a hunch. Btownclouds, Napleshoosier, ALASKA HOOSIER and 2 others 5 Quote
Hoosier82 Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 My opinion is Crean to Pearl would be a lateral move at best. There would be good and mediocre/bad seasons. I hope that when and if a new coach is brought some form of stability ensues. That's where the media types fail to understand. They cherry pick the good seasons and skip over the crap in between.
