TOM CREAN FIRED

[Dalton26 16,903]

Like I said that may be true but until I get something else credible I have to believe someone like Rabjohns over all this other speculation. Don't want to believe it but logic says go with the guy who's face you have seen.

Show me where Rabjohns said this. Someone on a message board saying he said it doesn't count.

By who? A credible reporter or more anonymous posters? Like I said until someone credible says differently unfortunately I have to believe Rabjohns as much as I don't want to.

Clickbait for their pay site IMO. If legit he would want to break it first. Nothing on his Twitter.

Don't disagree but to that fanbase it's a major upgrade especially if they land #1 player.

This is where I'm confused. Did Rabjohns post that Crean is staying, or did someone else post that? Nobody is being clear about that & im tempted to go buy a sub to find out...

Source just told me "They already have planned the ceremony to hoist the "2017 NIT Participant" banner" For next year.  Looks like Crean is staying.

He may very well be back, but Rabjohns is not the only one that would hear anything. Osterman, Doyel, and Bozich would all put that out there. Dakich would hear as well. He would be the first one to call all IU fans idiots. He may fall into this one, but he isn't infallible on coaching speculation. If he was, Lon Kruger would be our coach and Tom Crean would be at Alabama.

Like I said I won't believe anything until I see it for sure. What I do know is what Rabjohns said and that Osterman said today on a podcast with the Star he's heard of no changes. Doyel has said he's heard of no changes despite the article and JMV said on his radio show he's heard IU doesn't want to fire Crean. As I said everyone could be misinformed and deliberately mislead (I posted on this earlier) but tea leaves point to him staying from people who's face I l know. I also know one of the four guys personally mentioned above but not going to say which. Trust any of them before any message board poster.

This is going to get interesting that's all I know.

Absolutely. He would market why you need to go behind his paywall. He may not put the whole thing out there, but would say they got a huge break and know what's going on. I have no doubt he heard from someone, but could be as simple as, "I haven't heard a change is being made." Then it gets blown up.

Sorry for the multiple posts but this is getting hard to take.

How is he a credible reporter on coaching situations? He is 0-2.

Crean was also leaving two years ago per peegs. They have no credibility in my book.

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.

Archie, like his brother, is a sleeping recruiting giant. Better tactical coach than his brother according to many. Archie and Collins are the guys that my gut tells me we would really regret passing on 4-5 years from now. If we have a legit shot at Donovan, then we have to get the proven commodity. Otherwise, it's one of these two.

Ok. Cool. Same here. I worked with Hutch here and Osterman on 247. I know how much they know and on what stuff they know. We can agree to disagree based on their areas of strength and the purpose of that information being put behind the pay wall. Btw the guys that work for Star won't speculate otherwise until there is solid info out there. That doesn't mean if you know them personally they wouldn't believe differently.

there is too much talk going down right now to worry about who the next coach is going to be.....for me anyway
