TOM CREAN FIRED

[Trish]

As one of the founding fathers of the  "Tank" I declare today a victory for the good of IU Basketball.

Don't worry folks, help is on the way. With the media starting to question Crean and the largest student section in the nation failing to show up to national television games, it's only a matter of time before our prayers are answered. 

My hot take : Tom Crean has one final game in Assembly Hall on Feb 25th.

I believe he's gone. There is just no justifiable way to bring him back. This nightmare is gonna end folks. I'm thrilled

Questions :   Does OG's injury have anything to do with our offense standing and dribbling for 20+ seconds?   (Or getting to the FT line just 14 times in a home game?)  Does it have anything to do with teams figuring out that all you have to do is take away Indiana's transition?  (Think 0 three's in the first half is a coincidence?)   Does it have anything to do with 15 turnovers? 

I am so sick of the injuries excuse.  Jesus, Indiana lost a future All American and 4 year starter in 1993, and still went on to win the Big Ten and make the Elite 8.   They lost an All American in 1975 and went to the final game.  They had a rash of injuries in 1983 and still won the Big Ten.   I don't want to hear about injuries.  That's why you have a bench.  We have Tim Priller.  Whose fault is that?????

This guy needs a lesson from Coach Taylor of Friday Night Lights...you don't throw your kids under the bus like that.  Disgraceful!

I can't get behind IU tanking even if it means Crean going. And I want Crean gone yesterday. I would love to see IU win the BTT and fire Crean the next day.

Cream doesn't understand basketball … do you really think he's gonna understand a football reference?

Same crap different year, only this time he doesn't have an all-american on the team to save his ass!

 

 Nothing to do with injuries!

Fair point.

If he hasn't already, surely he just lost his locker room.

The sad thing is I think we'd get the same result from either tanking or playing as hard as we can.

If Crean won the BTT he would probably get an extension. Lol

Yup. You're right Tom. Completely right. Let's not take the blame. Let's just throw a bunch of 18-21 year olds to the wolves lol.

The Wolves would beat em'.

I thought the best pick of the day was the one Crean set on the sideline against Wagner. Classic.

When he ran over Crean?  Sadly that was the highlight of the game.

[HoosierSadaseci]

So...what do you all think of Tom Crean?

I think he'd be a great fit....somewhere else.  Somewhere where they won't care that he doesn't know much about the game he's paid millions to coach.
