I was around then, saw every home game at 9 years old. Parents of players wouldn't say something like that because if it got back to Knight the player and the parent would have been in big trouble. The player wouldn't have played for a couple of games or would have had his scholarship pulled at the end of the season. As parents, you can't say those things because you are not at practice every day. You don't know how well your kid is playing, practicing compared to everyone else. The coach is going to play who he thinks gives him the best chance to win, his job is on the line too. 

The difference is Knight knew what he was doing.  Maybe Leal's mom is right.  :)

when did Leal’s mom take to social media? Must have missed that as she’s always positive

She's not. He has several weaknesses in his game right now plus he doesn't do the one job he has which is shoot. He's lucky the roster is bad so he can get some PT right now

I mean...she ain't wrong.

If he didn’t blow what he did make. 60% of NBA players are broke within 5 years of retiring, and he didn’t last long in the league. He probably didn’t really have the professional career his mother was expecting him to have.

Yeah we can see that from the 1-2 min clips he plays.  Give him some time to make mistakes and get into the flow of the game.  Especially when Rutgers is kicking your arse.  We ain't going anywhere.   Did I not see Geranimo hit back to back 3s at the end?  Who knew.

Leal or Phinisee right now... I'll take Leal... Franklin goes down... I'll take Leal... Durham in his wonderful do nothing games... I'll take Leal. We wouldn't be losing anything. We are already going to lose the game anyways.

Geronimo before Galloway for me.  Since Trey hurt his back, he hasn't had any value or impact.

Haha. I know, I know. Laugh everybody. Take a deep breath 

It’s not that crazy, 3 S16’s and two outright big ten titles looks a hell of a lot better than the garbage Archie has produced. People don’t seem to realize he’s about to set a record that hasn’t happened in almost 100 years, with 4 straight conference records not above .500. 
 

Heck I thought it was bad when I was a student and we had four different coaches but this is even worse.

Phinese hasn’t hit a jump shot since we beat Iowa at home.

Not saying it wasn't time for Crean to go, but we did find out the old adage "the grass is always greener on the other side " isn't always correct. I would take the ups and downs of the Crean Era before this mess every day.

No, I don't want either.

Oh I agree I thought it was time, but you are definitely correct that we are all seeing the grass isn’t always greener. I’m at the point it’s just hard to even stay interested anymore but I’m not sure who we could realistically even get to come here. Bad times for IU basketball but hopefully hopefully the curse over this program for the past 20 years will fade at some point.

Somewhere on the campus of the University of Georgia, CTC is shuffling through his 2-3 Zone sets. 

 

JUST IN CASE!

Loved the classic switch to a zone in game and then the team would have no clue what to do. Haha that made me spit my drink all over  
 

I always just think of him pacing that sideline pulling his pants up.

Every time I think about the Syracuse game it reminds me of the story Calbert told about the preparation for the game. Classic Crean

I heard there were 42 different plays put in the week up to Syracuse. 

God bless his heart.

The parents should think about how that stuff puts their kid in such an awkward spot.

If coaches played everything the minutes the parents thought their kids deserved, they'd need to put 8 guys on the floor.  And would need three basketballs as well.
