WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 This sounds like our next coach. I'm not exhilarated about it. But reading that quote it sure sounds like the Alford rumors have merit. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners Quote

Would your one mistake be carrying Creans water pale all these years? I say that tongue in cheek of course. Pail* Clearly my mistake was trying to have an intelligent conversation about this. Keeps winning? What did he do last year with multiple NBA players on his roster? Consistently early exits from the tournament with top seeds? I disagree. His resume looks much like Crean's. Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 I hope IF it's Alford, the fanbase can give him a solid 3 years of support to prove himself in the way we did for Crean. The hatred towards him has me scared of what could be coming. Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners IUsafety, GloryDays, Hoosierfan2017 and 1 other 4 Quote

Bowhunter Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 He is not a homerun hire and I have to say I am nervous with all this Alford to IU talk. Look at it this way. Most of us want Donovan over Alford but what if the national media was saying Donovan to IU. Would we say they are wrong? I worry we just go off what we want to hear instead of common sense. Maybe that's just the pessimistic side coming out.Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using BtownBanners mobile app Tom White, WayneFleekHoosier and IUsafety 3 Quote
JSHoosier Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 I want Donovan but my gut feeling says it won't be him. Sadly I won't be surprised if we end up with Alford. My gut also said Crean was staying so there is that. WayneFleekHoosier, IUsafety and RedsIUfan 3 Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 Yeah, that's my fear. Hope Glass can somehow unite the fanbase. (The Alford rumors make sense and matches much of Glass' comments-And Janitor continues to beat that drum) It seems the only way that happens is Stevens, Donovan, and MAYBE Sean Miller.

My gut also said Crean was staying so there is that.I'm thinking we'll end up with someone else altogether. If you think about it, it was pretty amazing how few people actually knew about Crean being fired. If this is left up to Glass, and I'm not totally sure it is, I bet select few actually really know what is going on.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
