TOM CREAN FIRED

Hickorys problem was he shared then lectured. No one really questions his sources but when you lecture you will likely get some push back.

Totally agree. No one was in the mood for his soapbox schtick

Everything has been changing too much to believe anyone at this point

I don't care if bruno mars is our coach, I just want someone else to head us on Tuesday night. GIVE ME A REASON TO ROOT FOR THE HOOSIERS

[JSHoosier 19,580]

He did say he's done posting, so I guess he did take his ball and go home.

Pathetic part is, after he said we should step back from the "fire him" reaction and people called it out he said he never claimed that.

Hoosiers? Ha more like loosiers am I rite

[SteelerHoosier 2,586]

Why do you guys think them turning down a home game means he is gone? If anything I think it means the opposite. They will announce he is returning the day of the game. We will be on the road so it shields him from the home crowd backlash. Be it boos or a crowd the size of what you would find at a Cannelton High School home game.

Does anyone think that the deferred home game really points to Crean retaining his job? Gotta think if he was staying then we keep the home game and move forward, with a grossly unhappy fan base. Just thoughts.

Is it wrong to hope that it's a one-way journey for a certain individual?

At this point would anyone be upset if it was individuals, plural?

I do. Why give it up if he was leaving? 

[IUHAHN81 2,176]

Once again if Glass and Crean cared about actually winning, it seems much more likely a home game without students is still a better chance than going to a fully packed road venue.  I don't get any of this crap.  I'm lost.

We withdraw from creans fav thing NYC tourney and now we don't play home games. Idk somethings up tho

[Stuhoo 75,778]

I think that giving up a home game absolutely suggests more that he is gone.

If he were staying, he would have over 20 more home games and this would just be one of em.

To me? This is a way of letting him coach out the season and leave with gentility.

This was my thought too. I could be wrong.

It's simple Glass doesn't want to be put in the same position as Rick Greenspan in 2005 after the NIT debacle with Davis.

[IUHAHN81 2,176]

This whole situation reminds me of an episode of Jesse Ventura Conspiracy Theory.  Like IU administration is playing mind control games.  Trying to make us believe they really wanna win but ultimately want to destroy us.

Something is up alright--ridiculousness ! Here's to hoping we withdrew from the NYC tourney to make room for our new Coach Donavan renewing the U.K. Rivalry! I could go for that story line even on a neutral floor in Indy!

Well in that case that would suggest they plan on losing to GT, because if they win it comes back to Bloomington for the second round

First off, it's been too long since I've seen you! Secondly, if we get Donovan I wouldn't even oppose a 3 year contract @ Rupp!! You've been very quiet about what you think is going to happen, what are you realistic expectations as far as CTC staying or leaving (with replacement)?

I can see it both ways. If Fred gives him his "vote of confidence" tomorrow or Tuesday, then it might make sense to shield him from any negative backlash of the announcement. On the other hand, if he is indeed gone, then not having to have him coach anymore at home would also shield him from anymore booing for his last games as Hoosier coach. It's hard telling IMO.
