Tom Crean ...where is he?

[coonhounds 10,555]

Will we ever find out where he is? My guess is jail from a dui after comunion. Just a guess

Same Here,
Thats the guy I want the most other than a point.I wonder if coach sees RoJo as a possable replacement for Yogi.
I Think he may make a good one.If not we need to sign one yesterday.

I think you pegged it here. Rojo could likely handle point duties in his 2nd year. I still think Shake could be a benefit though. No guarantee Ziesloft plays 2 years. NBA possibilities for JB2 and Yogi. If Z doesn't play 2 and all stay it still works out. Staff probably knows the chances of these options. If we get/take Shake, expect one of the above to happen.

You are on the right track Wayne, based on recent history...the key is to take the open number of scholarship spots for the upcoming year (0 for 2015) and add three (+3) the result is the number of recruits we will bring on.  With that...I am predicting a three man class for '15.

 

Super scientific.

This is the perfect example of what I have said over 90 times on this site. You guys LOVE to hate Crean and 75% of the time it has NOTHING to do with his coaching. You wonder why some of us get sick of hearing the Crean hate, whether it be warranted or not? Here's the thread. Calling our coach a grease ball, clappy, and making low brow remarks regarding  his Catholicism and our players recent DUI troubles. Yet if someone makes a joke about Knight or Alford, who are no longer affiliated with the University, it's sacrilegious. This is your coach. You sound like fans on UK or Purdue sites. This is why we don't take you seriously and in turn you call us "sunshine pumpers." It's not that we agree with everything Crean does, but you guys totally discredit any opinions you may have with stupid crap like this.

Everyone stop joking around too many feelings are getting hurt. Only serious Pro-Crean posts are allowed.

sorry, any male that has a tanning bed in his house can not be taking seriously

Applying blanket judgement to someone is a strong sign of ignorance. What you're telling me is that even if Crean becomes the greatest coach of all time at Indiana, you will not take him seriously and will always dislike him because he has a tanning bed in his house. 

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

I changed my name to accurately reflect my stance on all things, no matter how bad his coaching gets I will always find a way to defend Crean!

Completely agree.

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Are you a fan or a troll if you continually try to discredit your coach using superficial qualities like hair and clapping? You want to rip him for his substitutions and in game adjustments? That makes complete sense and is completely justifiable. You want to go after Crean for his appearance? Grow up or go join in on the trolling on Purdue and UK boards. 

[LazOffTheBench 3,638]

I'm enjoying this thread. Joking around is good for the cardiovascular system. I enjoyed the "Knight hits a cow" thread too. Guess that makes me a very bad fan. Shame on me.

[CampHoosier 3,697]

Cat's Pause, GBI, The Hall (Louisville), Syracusefan.com...Btownbanners. All places where the following has been used:

 

Clappy

Tan joke

blah blah blah Sweet 16 rings

blah blah cutting nets down

 

Do you see why that's a problem? If you aren't going to stick up for your own program and coach, you are just saying the same idiotic crap spewed by the dumbest fan bases in the nation. If you're cool being among their ranks, by all means, continue dogging on your own coach. They love it.

Let me just say...I'm a Crean supporter, but I have no problem with peeps pointing out and having a little fun with his quirks...it comes with the territory of being in the spotlight...

His multi-million dollar contract and status within the state of Indiana are more than enough to make him laugh all of this off...if he ever gets wind of it at all...

The same goes for any one of us as well...we all have quirks that are strange to all others...yes, at the end of the day we are loyal to IU...and that's all that matters.

I think there is a point where joking can be funny and on point, but also when it can be too far and people have trouble telling the difference. Going too far doesn't just hurt Crean (heck, he probably just rolls around in his money pool) it hurts recruiting. If your kid is a 5 star basketball player with top schools after him, do you want to go to the school where their own fans obviously dislike the coach and think he's a joke? Or to a school with a respected coach with a lot of fan loyalty?
