TOM CREAN FIRED

Not to mention a top 10 class the year before Vic and Cody left as well. So he had consecutive top 10 classes to replace the Vic/Cody/Hulls/Watford group and they couldn't even make the NIT. 

Yup. It's crazy. Like sure, looking back those probably shouldn't have been ranked as top ten classes, but he recruited all of the players in them. If they flopped then he deserves some of the blame for recruiting the wrong guys. Every other coach understands that players graduate and move on so they better have guys ready to come in and fill their spots. Crean wanted to break it all down and go into rebuild mode for a couple years after a successful season.

Time to move on Tom

Just listened to Crean on PTI. Wow. Brought up that he should've campaigned harder for a second start over at IU after Victor and Cody left. Then states that if he ever has to campaign for a job opening he will get out of coaching. What a joke. So glad he isn't overseeing our program anymore. 

Crean is delusional but he is not our problem anymore at least.

The guy had the #4 recruiting class in the country coming in the year after Vic and Cody left and he's talking about how he should've hired a PR firm so fans would've gotten behind another rebuild? Give me a freakin break. No one was going to get on board with that dude. Big time programs are supposed to reload, but rebuild. If you didn't have the right guys then that's on you Tom. I've never seen someone refuse to accept responsibility for their failures like Tom Crean. 

Very arrogant man but a nice guy I guess. Lol.

Great idea then I listened to another interview. Sorry but it's not the horrible coaching or spastic creepiness about him. He is a moron plain and simple.

I really want to have some decent memories about the guy, but the more of these interviews I hear, the less respect I have for him. How about moving on with some dignity!? It's becoming apparent why he couldn't put any kind of a consistent product out there.

Because in his mind he is smarter than all of us and nothing is ever his fault. Never understood why some of you think he is such a great guy.

Because he bought a homeless a meal and preached to him about God and he sometimes calls and checks up on people's sick relatives. Maybe he's the world's greatest guy but the impression I have of him isn't a very good one based off the things I've heard and the things he's done.

My post was deleted last night for some reason. But yeah I can't stand the guy. I'm SO GLAD he's not the coach anymore. I don't care about him one bit

The whole buying the homeless man a meal deal is great but if i had creans money id buy every homeless person i saw meal. Does that make me a great guy? It just means i have the means to do it. What he did is really not that out of the ordinary. Most people i know are very thoughtful and generous with volunteering and donations
I guess i jusy know alot of great guys.

Because that type of post doesn't belong on here and the mods have already warned you...

[hoosierpap]

Yeah, good god let it go all of you. It's just bizarre at this point. I pity some of your ex's.

[Hoosier Guy]

I've never had ex's because I've never been in a relationship. I don't intend to be either. The only thing that gives me meaning is sports

Good April Fools gag, but isn't too far from being possible.

Well, that's interesting.  I mean, I guess I get it on the one hand...you want to minimize distractions.  But, the guy did lead the team for 9 years and has a son that will be playing baseball for IU.  Do you just completely shut him out of everything?
