Double D laying down a truth bomb right now on 1070!

I agree on the parents. If one is getting this upset @ the college level, what will the pro-level fan behavior cause? I understand the whole parent standing up for their child, but like a helicopter parent, you really aren't doing your child a favor. If you really feel a need to read what is being said do so at the risk you might not like what you see/hear.

Why can you and I take exception to what some poster with the opposite view says, but a parent can't. Makes no sense that they have to be thick skinned, but half or better of the forum posters skin is about as thick as a suds bubble

Dan is covering his ass saying Crean shouldn't be fired. Everything else he is saying is contrary to that point.

You could see that glimmer of excitement when Brad Stevens was mentioned. Haha.

[Buck Naked 451]

Here's the thing in my opinion. What's done is done. Kids made mistakes. Crean has made his decision on punishments. Some agree, some don't. (I don't BTW) We all had a good rant. It's time to move on. Obsessing about this isn't going to solve anything. I'm not saying if you have a legitimate beef with Crean in the future keep quiet. Let's just not keep focusing on this week. God forbid this happens again, but if it does we can revisit. Until then, it's time for some on the court action!

Sigh.....haters gonna ha

Does that even make sense to be haters aren't going to hate?

[HoosierHoops1 5,024]

I have been listening for 45 minutes and he said Perea's name correctly at least 4 times...relax

And I've said Dakich 45 times, but when I say Jan Jakich on the phone, you can better bet I'll be hanged up on and then there will be some "southern Indiana" guy rant.

 

There's a reason..those in the Region... are RATS

[Clay City Eels 78]

I know a lot of people on campus have an issue with Yogi for the exact reasons Dakich is bringing up.

Have some local kids on campus come home and say similar things.

I give Crean this season with a zero tolerance policy in effect...hey, if it was good enough for Knight then sure as hell its good enough for Crean...

 

 

If that’s the deal, Crean will be gone at the end of the season. He’s already said that he doesn’t know what "zero tolerance" means.

Yeah but come on....Troy busted twice for pot, 2 drug tests and its all a big mistake??? My mom loves me too but even she would be like "you high, son"

I would spell it out....You lose more than 50% of your games this season, you are out...One more kid gets arrested for drinking/pot/jaywalking this season, you are out....Substitute one more player who is on a hot streak for no apparent reason, you are out....We are on the phone with Cook getting that buy out and checking the couch cushions to get Stevens in here...

If I read anything from "DocLibby" or "HoosiersMom5", I absolutely filter it through the lens of "that's my baby". Meh. What else could they say in a public forum?

I got no problem with that. My comment was intended to be snarky. I forgot the ":)"

[HoosierHoops1 5,024]

More truth bombs coming down.....DD does not think Crean should be fired, thinks he should be the coach....If Crean left the only name they should go after is Brad Stevens...he is respected by everybody.........Crean tried to keep Bassett and Crawford when DD kicked them off and Crawford wanted to no part of any discipline....Screwed Roth and Creek over and they stuck with the program, should have kept them....Cheaney did not leave because he got an assistant job, he saw the writing on the wall and so did Luke Fischer

 

you either don't know what you are talking about or have a poor memory. He was the interim coach for a very very short term and in that term he kicked off pretty much everyone. He cleaned house, not crean

He was with the team the entire season. I talked to him at Hysteria, when Lance, Devin, Dexter, Kevin etc were in attendance

[CampHoosier 3,697]

He just mentioned how Painter had to get rid of kids and he agreed...so there goes that theory....

 

You mean when Byrd only got suspended? And Barlow was dismissed only after 3 infractions including a bar fight and a failed drug test? You love to stir up trouble on here

I think if my mother decided to post in a public message board, I would be horrified...She would literally come across like this lady:

That’s not how it works. That’s not how any of this works... bwahahaha.

My issue amongst MANY, MANY others is recruiting has fallen already pretty bad and after these events, I don't see that improving.

I don't see how we have any other choice, even with a successful season, but to explore options for next season to change our "image" in regards to recruiting.

Crean has a helluva challenge this year. Can't wait to see how our players respond.

[HoosierHoops1 5,024]

I get that, but if he's in Btown and she's in Richmond and "to her knowledge" he hasn't before, and he says "I didn't MOM", the first inclination would be to believe him

Fixed that one for ya. :)

The same people who hated Knight, hate Dakich, and for much the same reason. Both were/are known to tell you like they see it, not how you perceive it. What Dakich did or didn't do in his time here as a player is irrelevant. It doesn't disqualify him from holding and stating his opinion, nor does it make his opinion any less valid. Even if Dakich is found to be hypocritical, it doesn't make his observations any less accurate. Crean's new found backbone with his players, (assuming for the moment he actually has developed one), still won't make him a great or even good coach. His teams will still lack cohesiveness, direction, execution and consistent drive. A back bone won't develop post players, make in game adjustments, or win a championship. 

The only thing that may come out of his bullshitting is a delay in the inevitable.
