TOM CREAN FIRED

[mark1981 1,345]

Me too. Those guys are mediocre and sketchy IMO. Crean is mediocre, but he's not sketchy.

Amen. Glass needs to hit a home run. I can't handle another bad hire.

So how bout this...

Tom Crean gets fired sometime before the BTT. Highly unlikely but could happen. Tim Buckley takes over. IU wins it's first BTT. Makes it to the sweet 16. Tim Buckley is now the head coach of the Hoosiers. Mythical but theoretically plausible LOL

Story sounds familiar isn't that how Mike Davis got his?

Mike Davis went 21-13 with no seniors and lost in the first round to a 13 seed. He got the job because his team upset top-seeded Illinois in the Big Ten semifinals and had knocked off #1 MSU on Haston's game-winning three early in the season.

People would be underwhelmed with a Frank Martin, Chris Mack, Mick Cronin, Scott Drew type of hire. But if it got Crean out of here, would you honestly be upset? I wouldnt.

don't see any way Scott Drew would be hired after the Sampson phone fiasco.

My point was that he was a interim coach did something good and got a job undeserving.

The Kansas State AD is leaving for the same position at Tennessee.  Weber's already on the hot seat so the job at K St. could be opening up soon.

Geez, I thought everyone was at least halfway on the train by now! Just had a convo with another employee, who has checked out for the season already, but when I mentioned creaning Crean her response was comical. Yeah but who are they going to replace him with? me: there is said to be some serious talk with BD, her: oh yeah right, IU can't afford BD get real, why would we want him anyway, Crean's not going anywhere!

I still maintain that if we keep crean i will be excited next season for the start but not sure i could stand another season like this. If they turn the ball over over 12 times in exhibition i may be done

No surprise but word around Marion last night wasn't about JBJ at all last night. It was about RoJo & Hartman. Both will be playing next year just not for Crean. Dk how much truth there is to it, but everyone expects the Hoosiers to lose mass amounts this year. Like 6-7 guys. I did not expect that but honestly if that were true itd only mean Crean was staying. Like I have said a few times JBJ is always talked about but no one else on our team is so when a rumor starts it is usually true but this only makes sense if Crean stays. Maybe we can salvage a cpl guys w a new coach.

That doesn't surprise me a bit.  They've given up on Crean.  If Crean stays I expect mass defections.  It honestly wouldn't shock me to see any of the guys leave, not just Hartman and RoJo.

I heard from a couple guys who went to the game last night one is a Purdue fan and their stories were very similar that almost everytime Crean was yelling at his guys you could hear it quite a ways up and it usually involved no basketball. Heard Glass got word down to Crean to calm down once or twice as well. Also said he was texting a lot of the game even when it was close. Either Fred is done w Crean or our worst fear he just doesnt care. Both aren't good.

Not sure if anyone has posted this but this ol boy seems to think it's cut and dry....

How'd we go from Crean firing is inevitable to he's staying? 

[pappy1865 2,204]

NO to Gregg Marshall.  As an Indiana State grad, having seen him for years and years, just, no.

[SteelerHoosier 2,586]

Need a HR hire.  Don't be cheap. If we flub this one up IU will never be an elite program again
