TOM CREAN FIRED

[Whoozhers 3,645]

Shame it had to come to this but, it HAD to come to this. TC loved Indiana and promoted it well but...... You just can't continue to embarass our once elite program. I wish him well in his next assignment.

He changed his tune this morning shortly before it was announced.

Oh I know.  Like I said earlier he had to cover both sides.  I didn't believe him that he knew anything last night, the same as this morning like the one guy that came here last night seemed to think.  Great recruiting follow, but he knows nothing inside of those doors at the athletic office until it breaks.

So do we have current players who transfer and want to follow Crean wherever he goes?

I fully expect some transfers but not necessarily following Crean.  A lot will depend upon the identity of the next coach.

Coach Bennett, Good Luck in your last several games at UVA.  Cannot wait to welcome you to Bloomington!

Not one bit concerned about current players. Get the hire right.

If Donovan isn't real or can't make up his mind soon.  I would love Bennett, think he would be amazing at IU.

The Illinois message boards are already crapping their pants!!! I love it.

Right, Im not worried about who does or doesn't, just curious is all. Wondering if whether all they want is to play for Crean, or would love to stay at IU if we get a good hire.

Dakich taking phone calls and he's getting his equivalent of "Dittoheads".  It's just a bunch of half-wits kissing his butt and agreeing that Steve Alford *must* be IU's next coach.  I just don't get the idea that IU needs an "IU guy" because other guys don't "get it".  What's there to get?  Any solid X and Os coach that comes here and recruits the state will be an IU guy in no time.

So glad. Pure ecstasy.

As my dad said: "Gale force winds stemming from Indiana rushed across the Midwest today as Hoosiers breathed a collective sigh of relief!"

Fred Glass put the info out there in the same minute that the NCAA tournament started. Coincidence?

FIRE HIM! This is embarrassing

That kid with the Maryland t-shirt is probably bragging to his friends and taking credit now.

That "kid" was well into his middle ages lol.

[mdiu28 1,747]

Dakich really pushing the hiring of an IU guy. Get Billy, Fife can be his assistant and take over the program when Billy calls it quits. He'll be ready by then
