You known if Crean is back he'll do just enough for Glass to extend him.  Such a Crean thing to do.

Someone just started a new thread and all I saw was something like "I'm using a different handle/username to tell this information or something. Then it was deleted before I could read anything else

There is a 99% chance as far as CTC this will all be out by 5pm tomorrow. All signs as of now indicate a CTC announcement gone by then! We may/probably not know the new coach tomorrow. Go Hoosiers!

0708 or whatever it is just said he is legit and hearing the same thing fwiw

I'm trying boys. I also realize I need to change my name, it sounded like a good one when I made it years ago and obviously when I joined here I didn't take the time to let my creative juices flow and just stuck with it.

I LMFAO every time I read your name my man!  I have the humor of a 1st grader though!

Tucker will commit
Bryant and OG will return
Hoosiers will get some major wins, lose to some teams they shouldn't
They will make the dance , advance to the sweet 16 and yep, a 3 year extension!

Unfortunately I'm inclined to believe Rabjohns (assuming he said it and he wasn't hacked which is sounds like he did) more than an anonymous message board poster. The only media member I will not believe without further confirmations is Albers. Maybe Rabjohns is wrong and he is not 100% confidant yet which is why he has not gone public with it but this is probably most concerning sign Crean may be staying.
 
 

Yep it would prove what i have long said. Fred is not interested in being elite and it was all just words to quiet fans. Well i will be done with iu for at least one season and probably longer since he probably would not fire him next year either. I cannot support a crean team any longer.

He may be right. Since his time being an insider he has yet to be right for a coaching rumor involving IU men's basketball. Recruiting they do well at, but have developed good relationships with national guys. I have no doubt he has talked to someone he believes. But to me this just doesn't jive how it has played out at all. Complete radio silence by Fred Glass which has done even more harm to Crean. He is not giving him an extension which cuts his legs out from under him on recruiting. Donors are pissed. Fans aren't coming to games. He just turned down a chance to play at home to not be embarrassed due to said coach. I will say something I said to Pap and a few others on here. I have heard he is coming back and leaving. This from people I trust and have been hearing both for a month. He may fall into this one, but there is a ton of noise from trustworthy people, and I don't mean people on boards.

I feel like Goodman is directly asking me at this point.

[Dizz 323]

Any thoughts on Cuban making a contribution to keep Crean?  He doesn't like to lose when he can help it.

Yep, was going to post the same thing.  Hope their sources are right.

Complete polar opposite absolute assurances.
Peachy.

[IUrocker 2,145]

A poster on 247 who seems to be legitimate to a lot of people on the site said that there has been a lot of fluid motion the past 24 hours and a lot of going back and forth. Glass wants one thing, the trustees want another. What are the chances that the trustees give into Glass? Hopefully not good!!

I really wonder if Glass is highly invested in Jack, Jim, Evan Williams and Bud light and is just driving up sales

Dude that's the way it's been for a month for me. There is just no consensus. Most journalists too are taking a, "we believe he will be back until we hear otherwise since there is nothing out there legit" approach. This one is just weird, and Glass has played this one close.

Mile said, and Hickory backed it up, that Glass wants one thing and trustees want another.

Sounds Glass wants Crean back and his hand may be forced.  

[AZ Hoosier 6,574]

I am absolutely disgusted at the possibility of one more game with Crean as the coach in Btown... I will hide all my IU clothing and gear in a box in the back of the garage for the duration.

 

[Scooter D 928]

This potential Illinois bid for Bennett has me very nervous...

[Iubravos 327]

We need to get Glass out of IU ASAP!!!!!! What a clueless tool!!!!!!!
