recker222000 Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Let me be the jokester here...WHAT IF... These kids pull it together and play the way they're capable of playing... Bring a BTT title home from DC.... Make a small to decent run in the tournament and throughout the next couple weeks, you notice a complete change in coaching from Crean ....Ok stop laughing....I said "what if"..... I know the odds are stacked against us and I am currently on narcotic pain meds due to a recent surgery... So this could be the drugs talking...But would you want Crean back? Or can nothing, including a change in coaching style, sway you? Nothing would sway me to want him back.

Or can nothing, including a change in coaching style, sway you? I know it is not a popular opinion on here---but I would take another look if we made an NCAA Final Four run ---and Banner 6 would do the trick for me and get him another couple years to see if he could keep us elite. That would be the progress I expected to see this year given our talent and early season success. Back to reality---I do not see that happening and the inconsistency and lack of improvement with excellent talent is why it is time for a change. Just another average seed and sweet sixteen berth is no longer enough. He has had ample opportunity and been unable to deliver the results expected at an elite program. Quote

Or can nothing, including a change in coaching style, sway you? Style? Or philosophy? I think that nights like tonight only serve to reinforce why I do not care for Crean as a coach. High % of made 3's doesn't always mean that offensive execution was great. By the numbers IU still had a lot of issues. Chris Nieman, RedsIUfan, TrueHoosier62 and 3 others 6 Quote

recker222000 Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 The way the national media is running cover for crean right now you'd think he was John wooden. Pathetic.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk A.j. Nigh and ALASKA HOOSIER 2 Quote
bigrod Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Sorry to be an optimist, but I think we are a lot better next year. Less guys that NEED the ball to be dominant. I think Newkirk has a HUGE senior year. Think DG takes major strides. RoJo always gives me hope. CuJo just needs fundamentals down and a better handle. Not giving up on him. DD can be ALL B1G caliber. Freddy is gonna be our scraper. Juwan if healthy can have a breakout year we expected this year. Needs more confidence. Moore is a stud. I expect him to be a Ethan Happ type of player maybe better not next year though. He will give us depth. Smith will give us an athlete who can have DG type impact that he has gave us this year probably a little more since he gets more minutes. Durham and Gelon both provide a quality skill. Durham with his driving ability and Gelon with shooting but he is probably not coming back. Last but not least Priller time. I actually think he has some Tom Pritchard in him minus the dunks. Potential to make big plays when it is leadt expected. I think whoever is our coach the tourney and a top 6 finish is a must. I just hope his last name doesn't rhyme with bean haha.Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile appI gotta tell ya... I don't see that happening. Still no point guard. No way Durham plays much at all. Mediocre at best with Crean at the wheel.I Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Popular Post bleedhoosier Posted March 10, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 10, 2017 Yall gotta stop treating these games like they are job savers.. he's leaving on his own. Sit back, enjoy this last game(s) and root the boys on. I mean, Blackmon just played like he should have his entire career.. setting up others and playing engaged defense. This team is a different animal WITH OG out when that happens. Juwan Morgan is exploding in front of our eyes like OG did last season. Relax, let's go crack some BigTen heads!!!

HoosierSadaseci Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Trust in our sources, pray those who have stated it's past the point of Crean returning are getting good Intel. I'm holding out hope that Glass won't be easily influenced by the BTT games. With that said, if we win the BTT we are going to be screwed, and Missouri fans, too. ALASKA HOOSIER 1 Quote

HoosierRob Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Hickory Hoosier has said it's pretty much a done deal for crean to Missouri. So I'll trust his info theriverpilot, thebigweave and reconmkd 3 Quote
Popular Post coonhounds Posted March 10, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 10, 2017 Does anyone find it odd that right when crean was announced gone by sources that the boys look like a top 25 team? Pressure off? Possibly wanted crean gone? Or as crean would say they just getting healthy? The reason they shot so well last night imo was ball movement and hustle and improved intensity on defense.

Hope this board needed another smartass. Anyway, glad to be aboard and share my loathing of IU in it's current state. Been a fan since the early 80's and sick already of the national media kissing CTC's ass and acting like we should accept mediocrity. Love the Hoosiers but if CTC is back, I will not watch next season; as I have not watched the 2nd half of this one. Hope Surfboard Fred has grown a pair... Glad to have you with us. It's an absolutely great bunch of whacked out whackos. Quote
