And that's why Crean is back to recruiting. It's been pretty quiet on the recruiting front until a couple of days ago but they also have 6 days between games Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app R-E-L-A-X man. Crean is as good as gone. It's just not gonna happen until the end of the season. And that should be how it goes recker222000, HooHooHoo22, Stuhoo and 1 other 4 Quote

recker222000 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 I wont be suprised if he gets 1 more year. But I'll be disgusted.Sent from my SM-G935P using BtownBanners mobile appScary.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote
Hoosierfan2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 If Crean stays past this season I'll still be an IU fan, but I'll care a whole lot less. Keeping him would show that Glass isn't serious about IU being a top-tier basketball program, imo, and I'll have to adjust my expectations accordingly.

recker222000 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 I honestly think the only way Tom is back is if the few we are interested in replacing him aren't available at this time or this yr. I can see Glass playing it safe with who he has for another year to give plenty of time to sway a true candidate here.No this had to be dealt with now. Either fire him or extend him. You can't bring in back as a lame duck coach. In fact I doubt he would even come back without his extension.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote

HoosierAloha Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 On IU's dime?Honestly, if he's recruiting for his next job in the local area I'm cool with that. It probably means he's away from the team so they might have a chance in their next game... recker222000, Hoosierfan2017 and ALASKA HOOSIER 3 Quote

He's thrown his players under the bus and deflected blame his entire tenure at IU. It's the same old song and dance. He won't be gone till after the season Quote

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 That's what is scary though. Assuming all the rumors are true, Fred Glass is putting whether or not Crean returns in the hands of others...and 85% confidence of that happening isn't good enough in my book. Plus, the fact that Crean and his staff are out recruiting people seems to lead one to believe that he thinks there is a significant chance he will be here next year. Anyway, thanks for sharing the info. Anyone thinking Crean out recruiting means he is back is crazy. Plain and simple. He plans on coaching whether at IU or somewhere else. He is still gonna build relationships regardless of where he is. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Feathery, recker222000, MikeRoberts and 1 other 4 Quote

JSHoosier Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 In the recent past Crean said if there's one thing he's learned in 9 years it's that everything falls on him. He didn't already know that? That might be the only thing he's learned in 9 years here, which is one more than he learned from Izzo. Granted he said that after essentially saying "it's not my fault and here's excuses x through z, but I'm not deflecting blame" so I'm not sure he's even learned that.
