TOM CREAN FIRED

[bleedhoosier]

I want to say Molly McGrath said at one of the last home games that Blackmon told her "guys on the team weren't seeing eye to eye and they all had to put it behind them and build to the future"...

 

I have a 20 spot that Blackmon smarted off to someone and OG said "yea like that time u stole the ball from me during a fast break....."

While everyone is reading...... shoutout to the mods and everyone who makes BTB great. Whether you're reading on a computer or on the app, it's very user-friendly and that's probably the biggest reason I follow. I love how it bookmarks your spot. Anyway, proceed with the CTC bashing

Lots of noise and clutter and I believe things that are decoys---so it may be wishful thinking but I say--- where there is smoke ---there is fire. So--I am sticking with my original prediction: Crean to Mizzou and Donovan to IU!  What you got Hoosier Nation? Get your final predictions on record because I think things start leaking if we happen to lose tonight! 

Ok I say Crean to NC State. Marshall to Indiana.

Maybe Fred being there is a good sign and he will fire Crean on the tarmac like USC did with Lane Kiffin

Maybe Glass just really loves plane rides and felt like taking one this week. Moving the game to Atlanta gave him the excuse he needed.

Speaking of Molly McGrath, can she coach?

I've been extremely negative lately (especially against Glass) and sorry if this has been brought up already, but does anyone think Glass is attending these games as a farewell to Crean? Almost like a send off and thanks for what he has done. Trying to root for any positive at this point

Nah to give his vote of confidence/extension presser directly after the game

[doyle1984]

Could also be like when a divorced couple meets at a game to exchange the kid. The one parent (Glass) brings the kid (Crean) and at the end of the game leaves with the other parent (Missouri AD)

If we lose tonight, what time will the vote of confidence come tomorrow? Will Glass let us wake up first?

Maybe Glass is there because of the decision not to play at home, he wanted to show the team he is supporting them. 

[TheWatShot]

Glass had better be there. As silly as it was to move the game, it would be an even bigger d*ck move on his part to stay away from it. 

[8bucks]

Glass being there doesn't mean anything other than the fact that he is the AD and this is his program.

I tend to agree since it is a tourney game. He is not going to make a coaching change today.

I'm curious to see who else will be there? It's driving distance but I took the pass. Much like creans coaching in second halfs.

Someone compile IU's record with JBJ on the floor vs when he has been missing from the line up.

I've been thinking a lot about the divide in the fan base between those who say that they will be done with IU basketball and those who say they will continue to watch and support regardless of who the coach and players are.  Here is my take.

1. When RMK left I realized that I was an IU fan, but I was really a basketball fan first.  The game means more to me than who is playing it.  I would never be a fan (wear the gear, talk about them as my team, cheer with exuberance) for a different team; I don't jump on bandwagons, but I will root for schools that play styles I enjoy.  I will also turn IU off because their style makes me sick.

2.  Though I don't think that it is necessary, I would rather lose playing like Northwestern or Virginia than win playing like Indiana.  Not having big time recruits doesn't bother me.  Lack of execution and general basketball silliness does.

3.  College basketball was a lot more fun when the majority of guys stuck around for their four years.  I really believe that the late 80's through the late 90's were the golden days of college ball. The highest caliber athletes being trained for the longest period of time to work together as a team.  Most kids dream of National Championships and then NBA glory, not going to college as a one year audition for a shoe contract.

If Indiana retains Crean.  I will quit watching.  I will hope that they lose to the extent that it takes to replace him.  Maybe that makes me a bad fan, but I firmly believe that there is something right in the world when the best of  amateur basketball is being played in Bloomington.

[IUrocker]

Ha, it's kind of neat that Wichita State and Dayton play each other in the first round of the NCAA tournament in Indy. Maybe it'll be loser of the game is announced head coach of IU and we will know who we have as soon as the first round is over! (Im kidding, but wow that's crazy that those two got matched up together...and in Indy).
