TOM CREAN FIRED

[KingPG21 6,582]

 

Bad decision in my opinion, but I wasn't consulted. A guy wins two conference championships in four years, then has a .500 season with two major injuries and gets fired. That's not a school I would pursue if I could pick and choose where I wanted to go.

I only hope our recruits will still come and our returning players don't transfer en masse.

My opening-line money is on Alford to be our next coach although we've snubbed him twice in the past. With his kid graduating UCLA, he might want to come home. Stevens has said he's staying with the Celtics, and why Bennett would want to leave the more prestigious ACC for the faltering Big Ten (for anywhere other than his alma mater Wisconsin) is beyond me. That doesn't leave many great candidates unless somehow we can woo Billy Donovan...and I'll be surprised (pleasantly) if that happens, but I don't expect it.

Seriously, going .500 with that crap schedule he made is good enough for you? Said it a few days ago when you posted this in the Ga Tech-IU thread, if they're afraid to be consistent every year then they have no business even being considered here. Sorry, but it seems like you're expectations for the program are super low

So..

 

What do we do now now that we got Crean fired?

And exactly what did he say that would eliminate either?

Wait, what did he say? Not watching the presser

[Trish 11,497]

Glass said he's got a list.

Stupid us, we forgot to put our damn signatures. That wittles it down to maybe a dozen or two.

I'm not trying to freak out, but he just subtly explained Fife.

GLASS WANTS STEVE.

 

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

I agree the decision was bad. It should have happened last week. They might be making a NIT run now.

I think he does, actually. 

Every email I've ever written Fred I've gotten a personalized email back with direct answers to my questions. If you email him, be sure to put direct questions in the email - not just YOU SHOULD RESIGN. That way you'll know if he actually read it.

[Hoosier in NC 124]

Glass just said a former IU player would get a double check plus in his coaching search.  Not what I wanted to hear.

Damn this dude is going after Brad Stevens isn't he? He just literally described him to a T.

Glass choosing his words carefully during the discussion regarding the next coach.

RoadtoZion, who said Crean was gone last night, just said,

"We have our man. Let's roll."

Billy??? 

Absolutely. I think Donovan has been in the bag for a while

[LIHoosier 25,742]

What about the fan in Atlanta that was taking a leak next to him?

Wording? Careful. Message? Specific.

I think he was talking about Fife and Alford

Yeah, I think so too after his Hoosier for life speech. Before that he said connected to IU basketball.
