TOM CREAN FIRED

[woodenshoemanHoosierfan 6,182]

If IU is in position to win a a title, Tom Crean most likely won't be the coach - he's proven he isn't the guy to get us there. 
Simply sitting back and letting the admin hold our program back is not the attitude of a winning basketball program. When they aren't serving the program well, they need to know about it. Without the passion of our fans, we're just another college basketball team. For me, that's the worse thing that could happen and I hate to say it but it's already happening on the national scene (most don't consider us elite).
I respect your decision to keep cheering but maybe you should ask yourself if you have a breaking point? If not, then mediocrity seems to be ok with you.

I agree, but he is not saying it will be Crean. He wants a change, as do I, but I will not not watch or cheer for the Hoosiers.

Maybe if Sampson beats us at assembly hall that put the nail in the coffin. That'll be worse then this whole season combined

The tweet I just posted said non-conference teams so I guess a bad ACC team could've beat Duke/UNC in the same year or Northwestern may have upset IU and someone else in the 80s.

Accepting mediocrity isn't the same as rooting for these guys to win.

If I were ok with mediocrity as you suggest, I'd be giving high fives for a "good effort" after a loss. That's ridiculous and doesn't describe me at all.

But not cheering for them seems as bad if not WORSE than accepting mediocrity. And I see a lot of people here cheering for the other team ... Including PURDUE!! (are you freaking kidding me?) ... Because that loss might get Crean fired.

We need to accept that nothing we do will result in his firing ... Unless you're a big time donor, sadly you don't have a voice.

He'll go eventually... Until then, don't cheer AGAINST IU, and don't accept mediocrity... Cheer for the W's. If your health can't take it as someone mentioned, that's one thing. But if you're just annoyed we're not winning, I'm serious, don't bother cheering when we are winning. That's annoying.

Preach it

IU plays Georgia Tech on Tuesday.

Lol at the assembly hall isn't available. Crean prolly knows he would be booed or no one would show.

I can tell you haven't listed to much new music in a few decades.  Most of it is just varying level of garbage.

90% of any genre of music after 2000 is bad

Most of the 80s and 90s weren't exactly good, a lot it was pretty horrid.

That is sad, that AH is not available.

What is the fixation with having Indiana players and coaches here? Provincial thinking. Recruit the best like Kentucky and Duke.

If that's the case, I will be forever indebted to Mizzou if it can lure him away from Bloomington.

He's not gonna get $3M anywhere else. He will stay. Glass has not testicular fortitude.

I don't know, lots of great Country Music in that time period. But yeah the new wave and pop weren't very good.

Because a lot of the best come from the state! Not necessarily high on Alford but we have a lot of talent from this state going elsewhere. (In case you hadn't noticed) :) We need a system we can recruit to and find people, no matter where they're from, to fit the mold.

First post.  Time to jump in the water.  IU is completely gutless for not hosting Tuesday's game.  If you are sticking with Crean then play the game at AH and take your lumps.  If not, let him go and play the game there and see how much support you have.  Looks weak to run and hide.  Great look for IU administration.  If job does open i am sure coaches will be lining up for this clown show.  Embarrassing for all associated with IU.
