Popular Post ALASKA HOOSIER Posted March 13, 2017 Popular Post Posted March 13, 2017 I bet Glass is having a job interview with the new Men's basketball coach on Tuesday and wanted to show the new coach all of IU's equipment, workout gear, etc. He wanted Assembly Hall to be cleaned up and looking sharp. That's why he pushed the game to Ga Tech. eljefe6, Happydaze, GloryDays and 7 others 10 Quote

rmouse511 Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 I would love some true Market Research on this. Do we, the message board followers, have a lot more angst than the general public who doesn't ignite emotions with message board rumors and speculation? If this irritation is a large sample of the public how does the university and more importantly the athletic department move on with business as usual. Quote
recker222000 Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 After getting away from the boards and having some time to reflect on things, I'm fairly confident Glass intends to replace CTC. Too many things like the NIT decision, lack of any statement about the situation one way or another, and there's been too much chatter about possible replacements. Do I believe the anonymous sources are bringing definite, solid info? Nope, but I believe there's a kernel of truth in those rumors. Hearing that Terry Hutchinson even said something about interest in a particular NBA coach, is just one instance of seeing proverbial "smoke". I think the rumor that Glass is letting Crean make the decision about leaving may be true - that is until the season is over. He is probably taking the approach that he will let CTC coach as long as our season continues, or leave anytime he finds a new gig. After all, it's the NIT and according to Glass's own "expectations" it's a "who-gives-crap tournament". The weird decision to forego a home game indicates he likely is shielding CTC and the team from what could be an ugly situation and he probably doesn't regard the loser's tournament as being of any great importance. I may be totally wrong and I certainly don't have any solid basis for a decision either way, but I think we'll get an answer after the balls are put away for the season.The fact that glass may be letting crean make the decision should be beyond concerning and proves glass is incompetent. We owe crean nothing. This is just mind boggling.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Dizz 1 Quote

Bowhunter Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 I think a lot of fair weather fans especially some of the women I talk to don't really understand what has been going on. They don't understand the statistics and flaws of Tom Crean's system. Overall I think the state if Indiana fanbase has a high basketball IQ in general. Some see positive energy on tge sidelines and a decent year once and awhile and think that's Okay. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BtownBanners mobile app Alford Bailey 1 Quote

I am just mainly the Fort Wayne area though. I have a lot of meetings for Parkview Health System (I work here) and they generally end with discussing IU. I haven't met one person say they have quit watching. Pissed? Yes. Quit watching? No. I would say it is now a majority of people up here want Crean gone after this year. Before this year it was like 1 in 5 I encountered. This year it is over 50%.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app reconmkd and Kepner 2 Quote

He says in article that he would possibly follow Crean wherever he went. Also mentions that Crean and co have told him everything is fine with the rumors. Obviously he isn't gonna tell him he is gone. Sent from my LGLS676 using BtownBanners mobile app Kepner 1 Quote
