Jeff_Boy_Ardee Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Extremely unlikely CAM will get 9 years to prove his worth. He's not coming into a dumpster fire as did FCTC and FG knows this hire is all on his shoulders and he'll cut and run sooner rather than later.I didn't say he should? I'm actually agreeing with the poster I quoted by accident. I don't get why people criticize IU for having expectations when all these other programs did the exact same thing. The ones always in the conversation just haven't had to make a change in awhile because they already made their changes and found their guy. Quote

Actually, I was agreeing with your comment that CAM needs to demonstrate results quickly and he won't have a 9-year leash. Jeff_Boy_Ardee 1 Quote

Jeff_Boy_Ardee Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Find it interesting he thought he deserved another "start over" . I give him all the credit for taking to IU back out of the trenches, he did a great job at restoring IU and yes he brought some very good success. But he reached his potential and needed to go. Where else do you get multiple start overs just because graduation. Deserthoozier, Alford Bailey, Tom White and 1 other 4 Quote

The guy that spent the last 9 years making excuse after excuse for the failures in his program thinks he should've hired a firm to make excuses for him? I guess it makes some sense since in his world it's never his fault. Let's bury the "great, classy guy" bit. He's even sinking that ship now. He's a great salesman and that's it.

coonhounds Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Crean is gone thank goodness. May i never see as atrocious game management as long as i live. I pray for him and his family and hope the best for him but truly feel if he recruited and my dog coached the record would have been better. Not sure why i am back on this thread must be the beer new sheriff in town and i will be much more proud of cam i have zero doubt Sent from my SM-G920V using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
