At this point the buyout doesn't really seem to be an issue because as soon as he gets any sort of other job (coaching, commentary, etc) the amount IU has to pay him goes down 

That buyout is more than his annual salary.  The fear, as far as IU is concerned, is that Crean could just lay low for a year while he gets crazy paid and then finds a job the year after.

I've been hoping for a while that this is the scenario playing out. If the buyout is the issue then just retain him until July 1st with no position and hire someone competent. 

I've had the sinking feeling all along that for whatever reason Glass won't let him go. Some people fear change so much they accept mediocrity because it MIGHT get worse. 

For those wondering what fans Will do of no change is made? Not a lot we can do. I'll just find other things to occupy my time and interest. I'm told old to care about a team that the administration doesn't value highly. You care and they don't? You're going to be very frustrated!

Honestly, I'm beginning to believe the administration and Mr. Glass himself actually embrace mediocrity.

It also isn't paid in one lump sum though

Feel like we need to save the first post on page 1000 to be...

"Tom Crean has officially been fired."

The book can't end at the climax.  My grandkids will have so many questions when I read this thread to them and it just ends at his demise!

The contract is void if he doesn't immediately go after gainful employment. He can't do that.

My friend just texted me. Said he was at Wendy's getting some food right quick. The cashier told him Fred Glass was just there talking on the phone and he overheard him say press conference Thursday. My friend told me he was wearing an iu shirt so that's why he thinks the cashier told him.

From twitter: @jepopeiv: Scoop alert: Talked to security guard at arena. Rumor is Archie doesn't want State gig, holding out for Indiana. Security guards know stuff.

The guy who tweeted this is the NC Central beat writer for the Durham newspaper, so the tweeter is legitimate and coming from an NC State perspective.  This leaves little question that an arena security guard actually told him this.  The question is how reliable is our favorite security guard.  Evidently the writer thinks he is trustworthy enough to tweet that.
