The only good things about California. While i lived there i felt like it was equal parts amazing and nightmare.

Those are the three main things with California as far as I'm concerned. Where did you live while there?

Somebody take Crean, please!!!

Maybe Greg Marshall will reach out to Crean and offer him an assistant job? Kill two birds with one stone. Get rid of Crean and avoid Marshall. Whew

Honestly, beyond the fact that I dislike Alford's track record which includes both mild success similar to Crean's and an inexcusable moral blemish, I am convinced he would be given a much longer leash as the hometown hero if he underperformed as coach. Boosters seem hesitant to make a rash discussion firing Crean, and rightfully so, because instability is never good for a program. I can't imagine how difficult it would be to convince enough boosters to move on from Alford if he had success similar to what he has achieved in the past.

It has been said by multiple people that Alford was the one pushing to come to IU. I also think it might have to do with his family still living in New Castle if I'm not mistaken.

I saw a tweet that was later deleted by Justin Albers. Who else reported it? Just curious because I haven't seen much surrounding this rumor other than that.

I just don't get the desire for him. Why does Indiana have to be the first real school he coaches at? Let him go to Illinois or something.

gets the most out of his players. high basketball iq, teams have sound fundamentals, holds his players accountable and has proven over and over that his teams can compete and win against p5 schools

Are you hooked on that feelIng though?

Well, I was hoping for my posts to appear back to back but some one had to go a ruin the fun.  Guess I should have quoted myself.  I don't have a great feeling about where the program is headed, but hoping that's just the indigestion talking!

Kent really pushed him and when he asked if if IU was the 8th best program in the BT Mike said no. When presented with the facts that over the last four years that is what you get he was dumbfounded and began to turn a little.

Last night during the game the announcers kept singing Creans praises but would make many of the same complaints we make. Wow he just through that ball away without any pressure. Or what is Bryant doing behind the 3pt line down in the corner. If they had to watch every game like we do they would see but like Mike DeCoursey they make false assumptions about IU and act like the fans are idiots before looking at any facts.

Listened as well and thought the same thing.  MD definitely began to change his tune.  Shocking how out of tune he was.
