Recommended Posts

[quote name="WayneHoosier" post="48956" timestamp="1395025302"]Are u a current student? You have a couple posts claiming inside info? Just curious what you know. Thanks in advance.[/quote]

Just my opinion but he knows nothing, just here to stir things up when we are on edge.

Likely. The Vonleh claim is easy. I had that pegged as soon as he sat out OSU game. His other claim of players talking back and not respecting Crwan is interesting. Most college kids talk back so that is easy to pronounce. Doc libby tweeted that Crean does have the players respect though.

I'm a current student and hearing the same thing. Vonleh is telling other kids he's gone. I figured everyone knows this already, just wanted to provide a little perspective from campus and what's going around.

[quote name="DocLibby" post="49131" timestamp="1395069692"]Not sure about the "fake foot" injury that Noah "supposedly" had. I helped nurse that foot with suggestions on getting it better, so if he wasn't hurt then I've been duped as well as his teammates (unlikely). He doesn't come off as that kind of young man. Everyone knows where I stand on staying or leaving for the NBA (in my blog). It's no mystery that the entire draft is based off of potential. I happen to think he is more ready than Cody was and that's not saying much. He leaves because of the money. That's one reason why I like NCAA better than NBA. Student athletes have more love for the game. This chess board will move a lot of pieces before the summer is up. I'm just hoping it's all for the better. People may complain, but they will still keep watching IU ball.

Wow; hit them with context and real information delivered from a position of knowledge and credibility?

I can't wait to see the reaction to reality!

 

One minor correction Doc; it's not that "people may complain but will keep watching", "it's people will complain but will keep watching"! They complain because they care, because they jump to conclusions, because they have values that don't connect to reality, because they want IU to do well sooo much....but complain they will!

So if Noah's foot was a concern the second game it sounds like either Crean was making it hard to prepare for us or he threw Noah under the bus.

I would guess more of the former. A little gamesmanship.

I love this information. I don't personally doubt the foot injury. I just am not convinced he couldn't have played through it. 70% of Noah is better than most of our other options. My guess is he didnt want to aggrevate it or look bad playing on it. I am a hockey player and I/we don't miss a game unless I literally can't play. Different mindset. The chessboard comment is interesting and falls in line with everyone's predictions. I wonder which pieces are on the move???? Find out soon. It's killing me.

You know, for all the complaining we've done and derisive comments we've made through the years about Kentucky, we're slowly becoming just like them. We've pretty much given up recruiting the high school kid who most likely would stay for four years, and have instead turned our attention and pursuits to those who're NBA wannabes. We've sold our souls and what for years made us distinctly "INDIANA", so we could be something we dislike in other programs.

Can any of you imagine Crean actively recruiting Damon Bailey? Or Chris Reynolds? Senior nights at IU are going to become a thing of the past, as so too, I imagine, are "Raise the banner to the rafters" ceremonies.

He was skinny, lost in Crean's offense and needed a couple of years to grow if he was ever going to make a difference. Just my opinion.

This is every player at IU right now besides Yogi, lost in the "offense"

Hey, I had my name on a list to get called when the Galaxy S4 was in stores and picked one up just a few days later.  The S4 is absolutely an awesome phone, blows the iPhone 5 out of the water.

One guy has been a one and done under the Crean era. One. And he hasn't even left yet
