Does tone matter? Fan base: “We need to shoot better.”

Archie era: “We’re as exasperated as you are.”

Woody era: “No ****! We got this.”

Subtle difference, but good to see.

Pure gold!!

Best part about it is them shooting free throws when they’re absolutely drenched in sweat.

NCAA dragging its heels as you'd expect.

With a number of state laws ready to take effect soon, the Association’s top governing body Tuesday reinforced its commitment to modernizing NCAA rules around name, image and likeness this summer.

Full press release at:  https://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/media-center/news/board-reaffirms-commitment-updating-name-image-and-likeness-rules

And if you read it carefully you'll find this towards the end of the release:  Additionally, the board voted unanimously to extend NCAA President Mark Emmert’s contract to Dec. 31, 2025.

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!

Sounding like Antigua is leaving Illinois for UK. Illinois tried to compete with UK to keep him but it sounds like he's already been telling people he's leaving.

Hasn't he been in trouble before?

Yep.  Cal St hired him during an active investigation.   Worked out about like everyone thought it would. lol

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.

Haha.  Gotta love that lifetime contract with a $50M+ buyout.
