Where has this level of play been the last two months? This why Crean is going to be shown the door.

He won't be shown the door if the team keeps winning.  For him to be gone the team has to lose, period.  Glass has to be given no other choice, because he will look for any and every reason to keep Crean.

ESPN throwing out that a win against Wisconsin could lead to an at large. I think no way.

they said they would have to make to the final game to even be considered for the tournament

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]. You guys act like this after every win. We did not just win 5 games tonight. I promise it was only 1 game and we still play Wisky tomorrow.

Tonite was typical Crean. Rally the the troops, hit a bunch of shots in a no pressure game against a lousy team. Expected it. Tomorrow will be different.

There is a reason Indiana hasnt announced like LSU, Missouri, and NCState.

That's because Glass hadn't made up his mind.

If Crean leaves, it'll be on his own.

These last few wins will fire up Glass enough to keep him.

This is exactly what I'm afraid of. I want it for the kids, but I just know Glass is looking for some way out of this situation. Hopefully the people with money don't waiver.

[recker222000]

It's not even about us being doom and gloom guys, I could honestly just see it happening. Glass isn't going to fire Crean if he manages to win the BTT, or if he gets into the tournament and wins a game or two. We'll get a little pat on the back and Glass and Crean will be grinning from ear to ear. Next year we'll go right back to playing unwatchable basketball and being the joke of the Big Ten all season long. 

That's why I've never put stock in a few internet posters saying he has already been told it's a done deal. I think Fred would drool to keep him if he won the btt

i want to be happy they won.....but im not

[Hoosier Guy]

Anyone watching Spurs-Thunder on TNT? Go Spurs! Thunder need to lose as much as possible. Billy Donovan save us

[mdn82]

Guys, he is gone. Even if he won the BTT he isn't getting an extension. These are the last few days my paranoid friends [emoji23].

Maybe it's the coffee I'm drinking but regardless of how I feel about Tom Crean I can't help he feel all warm about the Hoosiers. That'll never fade. I can't root against them. 

This all day long. I absolutely do not understand not cheering for a team I've been a fan of for 44 yrs. Regardless of who is coaching (except Calipari)

If that were the case he would have got an extension last year.

I don't even see rooting for losses as rooting against IU. I want to lose because it's what's best for the program as a whole. The worst thing would be to win just enough to keep Crean around and stay incredibly mediocre. That would be rooting against IU, imo, and I think it's what the other teams in the conference are rooting for. 

I understand this argument, but I can't NOT cheering for IU.

So.....we have won 2 games in a row....against 2 lousy teams( OSU and Iowa, c'mon)....both not in consideration for the NCAA.....from....lets face it gang,   a lousy conference this year. Its not like we have accomplished ANYTHING.

The sad thing is, tonight's game showed this team for the schizophrenic hot mess they are, and have been, under Crean's leadership. Perhaps Fred Glass, (and no small number of IU fans) get caught up in seeing threes fall left and right, but threes are a lot like wallpaper; they cover a multitude of errors, and this program, for too many years, has gotten by with wallpaper. Personally, I couldn't care less if they ran the table in the Big Ten Tournament. Conference tournaments are a sham anyway. This is a deeply flawed team, being led by a man whose basketball philosophy and teachings are equally flawed. It has no place being in Bloomington.
