Georgia is really turning on Crean fast. Did this rumor exist around the time we missed on Don. Mitchell? https://ugawire.usatoday.com/2021/04/26/report-tom-crean-once-told-utah-jazz-star-he-wasnt-good-enough-for-nba/amp/

I think they took that story down, darn it.  I really wanted to read that.

Looks like you're right. You're not missing out on much, they just shared a rumor that Crean texted Donovan Mitchell after he picked Louisville over IU. They didn't provide any screenshots or actual proof, just spreading gossip.

As mentioned, it was just a litany of complaints about Crean. THIS story about Crean: Link is worth your time though. Hilarious and I'm not even a real Crean basher. 

Ok not really a "story" but still funny. Here is one of my favorite quotes: "In all of them, it's not just that Tom Crean looked lost. He looked like a lost Tom Crean, a thing more lost-looking in the moment than most lost-looking things, tugging at his horrible pants, swatting around his hopeless haircut, and driving Indiana fans to the brink of madness by refusing to take timeouts."

Thanks, that was funny!  I met Tom Crean once at a charity event and after I introduced myself he loudly asked "are you a Purdue fan".   I was  very surprised because it came out very accusatory besides being very loud.  I assured him I was an IU fan and I spent the next few hours trying to figure out why he assumed that.  I wasn't wearing black and gold, I was sitting with other people wearing red and I was very polite to him.  It was very strange!

He could see into your heart. Crean was a sage!

Maybe they should target Crean next, because his career is heading that direction. Or better yet, just pay Sean Miller and keep on keeping on.

What is Goodman even talking about, lol. It would “make sense” if the same staff that coached Durant was still there but it’s a completely different one. 

Texas offered Bates tonight
