This was a question I was going to pose - even if he DOES fire Crean, how much confidence do you have that he'll hire one of the top coaches?

Now, I don't follow college football closely, but he's had a couple of opportunities with the football team and hasn't come close to that home run hire.  This may be because it's just no feasible with our history/tradition of suckage, but that shouldn't be the case in basketball.  For the record, I'm very nervous now about what caliber of coach FG might hire.

IU basketball should be much more capable of hitting the home run than IU football.  One is a historical blue blood with every resource needed located in the heart of one of the country's most fertile recruiting grounds (thanks again, Tom!), the other is a historical doormat.

My issue with Allen being hired isn't that he got the job, it's that Glass didn't even conduct a coaching search before hiring a guy with 5 total years coaching and none as a HC anywhere.  I liked how the defenses improved with Allen, just don't think he's ready to be a head coach.

Yeah if there is truly a booster meeting tonight, I'm pretty sure Crean is gone. Boosters aren't gonna have a meeting with Glass if everything was gonna stay the same

I just hope it is tonight. My uncle said that Tom planned on being away for a few days. I pray it is tonight or first thing in the morning. I assume the boosters have a meeting alone first then with Glass. Unless they really want him gone it could all happen today I guess.

The store on Coliseum has been closed a long time but the fieldhouse is still open. My step daughter goes there for daycare sometimes. If I had the means while I lived in the fort I would've been a gym member there but it was too expensive. 

Yeah our Wabash store got closed to about a year ago. He made some money selling to Napa Auto Parts though. Place was HUGE. Nice to see the Fieldhouse is still going. Every Indiana kid should play there once at least.

If the boosters have any sense of knowledge, they want Crean gone now since the season is officially over

Right on. I used to work at Wabash Electric in Fort Wayne before i joined the Navy. Yeah the field house is top notch and i hope it stays open. Its a great gym but i just couldn't afford it.

Allen only has five years of coaching experience? Everything I have read and seen shows his coaching career dating back to the early 90s in high school football and he started coaching in college in 2007?

The only way the silence of this whole situation makes sense, is if Glass literally has no clue.  You have to say something one way or the other...

Yeah idk where the "Allen is new to coaching" thing comes from because it couldn't be less true. He has a ton of experience/connections all over the country, but most importantly in Indiana. We won the Wilson scenario.

They might have offered something different to Crean though.
