It's not 1963 and it's not the NFL. Defense doesn't win championships. Talent and balance seem to be a winning formula though. 

Wrong. No team ranked outside the top 21 in defensive efficiency has won a NCAA title.

My vote after Stevens, which apparently won't happen, is for Donovan, S. Miller and A. Miller. Don't think Bennet would recruit well enough to get IU to the final four and beyond. Although it would be better than the status quo.

Has it changed at all?

A few weeks ago he threw the players under the bus, backed over them, put it in drive and ran over them again; right before saying he wasn't shaking responsibility.

lol that's what I meant. Hasn't changed one bit.

Crean really pisses me off. How he didn't learn a damn thing from Izzo is just beyond comprehension

[Dalton26 16,892]

That poster quit posting completely, not just stopped defending Crean.

 

 

Hahaha I'm assuming you're talking about our old buddy that would start taking personal shots then throw a tantrum when they were thrown back?

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

Glass has had a couple good hires imo. Curt Miller was a slam dunk , just didn't pan out. I believe Tom Allen will be a great turnout for us.

The only problems I really have are the extensions. The extension to Wilson was a little questionable. Tom's extension was too damn long.

I give Kevin Wilson credit for Tom Allen, not Glass.

"We don't want him fired, but he needs to do a better job."

"Boohoo".

Creans radio show-Throwing Bryant under the bus for not getting to the FT line. And more blaming of injury.


I can't stand this guy. They can hire Rick Stansbury for all I care as long as this guy is gone next year.

He was throwing the refs under the bus not Bryant. Said Thomas was getting hacked left and right.

Ok....maybe not Rick Stansbury. But I'm not real picky right now.

I actually heard Stansbury may be leaving after only 1 year at WKU.

"We don't want him fired, but he needs to do a better job."

"Boohoo".

Or when he would come into this thread to try to get us riled up and then get mad if firing Crean was mentioned anywhere else. I hope he never ever comes back here.

Doyel, wow. What a trash article. I know quite a few people (I'm one of them) who are losing their passion for IU and if Crean is back, that passion will pretty much be gone.

[Hoosier Guy 7,529]

That article by Doyel is garbage. He says IUs best bet is to have Crean continue to evolve as a coach. Continue to evolve? He hasn't evolved at all. This idiot is just stirring the pot

[Hoosierfan2017 21,075]

I should've known better than to waste one of my free Indy Star articles on Doyel's word vomit.

He managed to land Kyle Guy an Indiana boy, which you know who, couldn't do.

He hasn't evolved, hell that's part of the reason this thread exists.  It is the reason the problems on page 1 are still problems on page 724.

Not just Guy, he had 4 top 70 players in that class (5, if you include Mamadi Diakite who reclassified to enroll a year early and was rated a 5-star by some services).

I just threw up in my mouth. That was the biggest peace of garbage I have read in awhile. He has been here 9 years. I don't think he is going to "grow" much more as a coach. Also if Glass does nothing he may find himself searching the classified ads with Crean looking for a new job. What's with the uniform stand of media members behind the coaching staff.
