Popular Post BlueDevil Posted February 26, 2017 Popular Post Posted February 26, 2017 Exactly. What if IU goes in this direction and then for some reason Louisville, Kentucky, North Carolina, Duke, etc. need a coach in a year? Nothing to keep BD from choosing one of those programs and leaving IU in a really awkward position.I just don't understand this logic of selling the program short. I've seen it a lot. No coach is going to take the IU job and jump ship for another because IU is a destination job. I don't care to hear about the drought IU is a competent coach away from competing for titles again. That's why IU will be the number 1 job opening. Crean has done one hell of a job stabilizing the program to hand it off to the next guy, THE guy.

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 I honestly just dont know anymore. Any post to me is believable at this point because well we have nothing else to go off and two the AD is Fred Glass so this could be handled several ways. I have no plans on guessing or assuming anything anymore I am just gonna give it some time and see what happens instead of getting my hopes up or vice versa.

Hickory Hoosier doesn't merely say "gone", he also says "very mutual." Guys... HE GONE. _______________________ ALSO: The board has neglected to consider a point that CTC brought up last night: with Meghan Crean graduating from IU, the Crean family will not have any of their kids at IU next fall if they make a break this year. So Riley has backed out from IU baseball? Tom White 1 Quote

He had Allen ready to go and it only took 15 days to hire Yegley no way we started from scratch. Can't remember how long the baseball situation took edit. Looked 9 day gap between baseball coaches.

Personally, I'm not as big on Glass as others on here are. Facilities improved, sure. While I was willing to give Moren a chance with WBB I wasn't enthused with the hire, and I'm willing to give Allen a chance at HC for football but I don't like how that was handled since he was only a DC at this level for 1 season. So no, I wouldn't be surprised if Glass botched it. He had a good opportunity to fire Crean already and didn't do it, presumably because of a buyout he was stupid enough to sign in the first place.

Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 26, 2017 Posted February 26, 2017 There has been some good insider info if Crean and IU part ways mutually. Maybe we should change the name of the thread haha. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Yeah if the Runors are true that we could have had Donovan 2 years ago and we botched that then frankly it shows that Glass belongs at s school like Purdue that just wants decent teams at everything. Dude clearly doesn't have the guts to build an elite team. Happydaze, Yogi's Picnic Basket, Hoosierfan2017 and 1 other 4 Quote

If it is in Glass's hands I am truly worried. I dont want a search firm taking the whole thing over but Glass does need to get some help. Maybe Cuban can give some advice....seriously though. He is a very smart man regardless of what his personality gives off. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Tom White 1 Quote

Nothing to keep BD from choosing one of those programs and leaving IU in a really awkward position. Let's say IU could pull off a Donovan hire. He would have literally every resource at his disposal that they could offer, with an advantage over most of being in the heart of a recruiting hotbed. Bad coaching hires is the only thing keeping IU from being right there with them, and Donovan would be a home run. Napleshoosier, Feathery and Happydaze 3 Quote

I have a gut feeling Glass will try to make a splash with this hire because his job will probably be attached to it. Especially sense Men's basketball is were the majority of the revenue comes from.
