His winning pct at LSU is literally Cronins at UCLA and that's the only thing going for Mick, which again, is less than uclas all time.

Even Indy Star’s Doyle is pushing Cronin, the other names you may be right about, but there are people on this forum that have shown support for guys like Brownell and Pitino. I am still hoping for an elite proven coach, but the Cronin talk is very real and I would be very disappointed if that is the direction we go. Cronin seems like the emergency parachute option. I know some highly disagree though. IUBtown, theriverpilot, iu eyedoc and 1 other 4

Seems to me it's the same people talking about him a lot, not a lot of people. Regardless, I am going to say Cronin will not be the guy, if no other reason than Doyle being one of the people talking about him. thebigweave, Mopladysman and RoadRage 3

But I get it, hiring Wade would mean we wouldn't be able to act like we're above everybody else, and he wins too much. Wade is still on a show cause until June. Sampson’s show cause had run out when he became Houston’s coach. go iu bb 1

His winning pct at LSU is literally Cronins at UCLA and that's the only thing going for Mick, which again, is less than uclas all time. Anytime Wade has lost a game in the past 5 or 6 years I post that picture in the college basketball thread. It’s a well known inside joke for longtime posters on this site. My hatred for Wade as a coach goes back along way on this board and it’s well documented. I don’t care how much the guy wins I don’t want him anywhere near a program I’m invested in. There was a time back in his VCU days where I posted on how good of young coach he was going to be and he runs really good stuff. His personality changed for the worse when he got to LSU and he became someone I didn’t want to root for anymore. Throw in the arrogance of his strong a…. offers and how slimy he looked during it and after I just want no part of him. He is a fantastic coach I just think he is a POS trash of a human and don’t want him near Bloomington. Luckily I don’t have to worry about that BtownStrength, Demo, thebigweave and 6 others 8 1

I haven't seen anyone actively campaigning to hire Cronin, nobody wants Cronin (I certainly don't), but if we get to the Brownell's or McCollum's just to find someone willing to say yes to our job, we could do worse than a guy who makes the tournament every year and wins 68% of his games. The fact is, people simply do not like Cronin's personality (which 100% totally get after the last 8 years), and it has nothing to do with his coaching record. If he was likable, he would probably be considered a really nice option and not like 6-10 on the list. JF87, go iu bb and thebigweave 3

I wouldn't be so against him if it was less than that. But you don't spend 10mil on safe then another 5/year. That's not safe money. OKHOOSIER, SlammySammy and thebigweave 3
