I just fear that Crean and Glass have talked and somehow Crean talked Glass into 1 more year. And that's why Crean is back to recruiting. It's been pretty quiet on the recruiting front until a couple of days ago but they also have 6 days between games

R-E-L-A-X man. Crean is as good as gone. It's just not gonna happen until the end of the season. And that should be how it goes

I honestly think the only way Tom is back is if the few we are interested in replacing him aren't available at this time or this yr.  I can see Glass playing it safe with who he has for another year to give plenty of time to sway a true candidate here.


No this had to be dealt with now. Either fire him or extend him. You can't bring in back as a lame duck coach. In fact I doubt he would even come back without his extension.

If Crean stays past this season I'll still be an IU fan, but I'll care a whole lot less. Keeping him would show that Glass isn't serious about IU being a top-tier basketball program, imo, and I'll have to adjust my expectations accordingly.  


Well at least we will know his talk of national championships is all bs.

Not sure I agree with that.  The way he threw his players under the bus and made excuses, followed by saying he's not deflecting blame, he should've been fired then.

He's thrown his players under the bus and deflected blame his entire tenure at IU. It's the same old song and dance. He won't be gone till after the season

One of the things that has turned me off the most about him. Hardly ever shoulders any blame always blames the kids.

I have actually been told by some people that in reality he is not a very nice guy behind close doors and is hard to work with.

That's what is scary though.  Assuming all the rumors are true, Fred Glass is putting whether or not Crean returns in the hands of others...and 85% confidence of that happening isn't good enough in my book.  Plus, the fact that Crean and his staff are out recruiting people seems to lead one to believe that he thinks there is a significant chance he will be here next year.  Anyway, thanks for sharing the info.  

 



Anyone thinking Crean out recruiting means he is back is crazy. Plain and simple. He plans on coaching whether at IU or somewhere else. He is still gonna build relationships regardless of where he is.

In the recent past Crean said if there's one thing he's learned in 9 years it's that everything falls on him.  He didn't already know that?  That might be the only thing he's learned in 9 years here, which is one more than he learned from Izzo.

Granted he said that after essentially saying "it's not my fault and here's excuses x through z, but I'm not deflecting blame" so I'm not sure he's even learned that.

Yeah I get sick of it. He obviously didn't learn anything under Izzo
