TOM CREAN FIRED

[HoosierTrav 7,729]

Another thing from that presser...

 

Glass absolutely KILLED it. I usually hate press conferences because it's all scripted BS, but that was real. Great second step of the process right there.

 

In the words of Joel Embiid...trust the process.

 

Hands down the most candid and honest Glass has been. He gave me a ton of confidence and excitement. I fully expect our next coach to be a grand slam (Donovan). Looking forward to having a united fan base for once in my life.

 

Edit: for those of you who think Glass is actually going to hire an Indiana guy from Indiana, I think you should reconsider your position. He is just saying that to appease the faction of alumni who would like him to go in that direction. No way Fife or Alford are the next coach. He all but eliminated them with other comments. IU fans will be getting a healthy dose of the D......Billy D that is.

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.

I'm taking a preliminary guess that the cup is always half empty in your eyes, or you're a sophomore at Purdue

Those details were posted here about 20 pages back fellas.

Another bright point.. I see Devonte Green staying now. There always seemed to be a disconnect between him and Crean. I think Green wanted to play at IU but didn't like the guy he was playing for.

That tweet from the twitter account?

 

I looked 20 pages back and I didn't see anything but cheer and joyfulness

Takes Marshall out? He meant by conference right? Cause Marshall hasn't sniffed High D1 conference level

He spoke of anger issues etc. took him out as well. Took Archie out w/ high D1. 

All signs point to William D.

No sir not the twitter account. 

 

It was a guesstimate, It seems like this thread grows about 20 pages every half hour

BTownInsider has been posting Donovan to IU for a while now. I think he's right. Too much smoke to be no fire

[Trish 11,505]

$40 million/ 5 year deal for Billy. DO IT FRED, DO IT!

[KingPG21 6,582]

So there was a tweet from some guy from SI that IU would regret the decision. Lol, if we hire Billy D I would love to get that guys perspective. 

[Dalton26 16,892]

This just feels appropriate.

That guy is higher than Cheech and Chong. IU will not regret this decision in any way

I think it's time to wrap it up and publish it. Make it mandatory reading for IU freshmen
