Ive wondered if he had been found out as well. 

While it's cool for us to believe someone is getting the scoop for us, the truth is that deep-down I don't have a lot of respect for someone who is entrusted to confidential information and then goes blabbing it around.  The only reason for someone to do so is for self-aggrandizement or if they're being used to purposefully leak info.

I'm sure it's been discussed in the fire Fred Glass thread, but what's everyone's opinion on Glass if he retains Crean?

If Glass retains Crean, he should be fired. Glass never should have given Crean that ridiculously large buyout. We have to watch another NCAA Selection Sunday show and not hear IU's name called! Not good!

If Crean is retained the it means Glass is a liar..

Quote

“My goals for this program are to perennially contend for and to win multiple Big Ten championships, regularly go deep in the NCAA tournament and win our next national championship,” he told the Star. “Be elite, if you will. As a lifelong Hoosier and IU basketball fan, alumnus and current AD, nobody wants that more than me."

“Coach Crean’s status should be based on his ability to achieve those goals going forward, not what he has or hasn’t done in the past. Because I believe in the team he has assembled and is assembling, his leadership of it and their ability to start achieving our program goals, I continue to support Tom Crean as our coach.”

Here is what will probably happen....Glass give clappy one more chance, and if he wins the Big Ten next season, he gets an extension, much to the dismay of IU fans.

Crean will be retained, and he'll make the tournament next season and be rewarded with an extension. It just seems inevitable that we are stuck with him.

I think you guys are underestimating how bad next years team could be if Crean is back... if Crean is back I expect some key guys to leave the program.

Why is everyone freaking out? It's been 1 day. Relax.

[jdailey1981 155]

However, with that said, Glass will either have to announce an extension or termination. With two years left on Crean's contract, he will either have to give him an extension to ensure Crean doesn't leave, otherwise, the end is near for him.

So close to 900, really wish someone would leak a press conference time and date. I am super shocked that this admin has been able to keep so tight lipped! In today's day and age, this is an almost insurmountable task to accomplish. Come on there has to be a mole, it's impossible to not have a mole or there's a lot of money floating around keeping people's mouths shut!

The moles have become trolls.

Funny... this is how many of our fans feel too.

Lol glass may be dumb but he is not that dumb. Next year would be a dumpster fire. I look forward to never hearing creans voice again.

If that is the case that's a classic glass move scheduling during the selection show where no one will be paying attention

Yeah it's gonna be a bubble team showdown between Syracuse and IU. I don't understand that topic since Syracuse is clearly in and IU clearly isn't

[Jeff_Boy_Ardee 1,311]

Eh.  I don't need to see the highlight from the Mike Davis team that led to the last 15 years of misery.   Without this win, Indiana does not give Davis his extension, never has to hire Sampson, and probably never hires Crean.  We'd have had a far different path had Duke won this game.  This is not a "sweet dreams" moment for me.  It's the beginning of a nightmare.  Great win, but it got the wrong coach an extension.

This is my whole time favorite IU team. Granted I wasn't old enough to see any championship teams, but I can remember watching the 90s teams with Guyton and those guys with my dad. This team was just so fun to watch for me though, the played like a true unit not one or two guys trying to be the heroes.

That being said, even though it gave davis the extension they still fired him. They problem started when they hired Sampson. IU was not in a terrible spot when davis left. Yea they weren't winning as much but that's all, it was still a destination spot. They just completely flopped on that hire.

How is IU in any kind of bubble talk?
