dnb0214 Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 It would be put up or shut up w/ Crean if we signed Bryant! No reason not to finish the year in the top 10 w/ an elite 8 finish or better! Feathery, Crimson and Cream and Hoosier Roots 3 Quote

Feathery Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 It would be put up or shut up w/ Crean if we signed Bryant! No reason not to finish the year in the top 10 w/ an elite 8 finish or better! It goes beyond having a good year next year. He would need to be able to sustain it. He built it once and couldn't. He is on the cusp to having it built again. He can't have another drop off like we did the past 2 seasons. If we land Bryant he will be a Big Ten title contender for sure. Hoosierboy1980 1 Quote

Feathery Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 And another Sweet 16 exit from the dance. Remember, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. I'm not disagreeing. I want a change. I was just stating if he stays for next year he must have us poised to be good the following year as well. Sustained success is my biggest gripe. BGleas, AZ Hoosier and MikeRoberts 3 Quote
Trish Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 no Doubful. Sadly, stuff like this will just forestall the inevitable. Glad others agree with me. Crean will have him running the PG before you know it . ThompsonHoosier and CrossboneIU22 2 Quote

bleedhoosier Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Vonleh was Terrific 3 point shooter so I have no issue with this. This would be huge! Besides the same defensive squad mostly, this would be a killer squad bnkepner and IUsafety 2 Quote
IUsafety Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 crystal ball leaning towards IU! even as a "mod" im not sure i can post this here but here it is....http://247sports.com/PlayerInstitution/Thomas-Bryant-at-Huntington-Prep-103023/CurrentExpertPredictions Looks like we picked up a another pick today.

Bryan Medema Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 I still contend that Crean's use of Bryant is irrelevant so long as he goes somewhere inside that arched thing. Bryant's presence alone should force defenses to soften their hold on the perimeter. If CTC can't find a way for one of the deepest 3-Pt shooting teams in the country (with a perimeter player to draw some focus and a PG capable of driving) to get consistent looks I will kneel before the throne of Alford Bailey.

Miller'sTheMan Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 He would be a massive get, seal the deal Crean! Bryant would make us really have no glaring weakness on paper offensively. Hoosierboy1980 1 Quote
AZ Hoosier Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 He would be a massive get, seal the deal Crean! Bryant would make us really have no glaring weakness on paper offensively. A couple of years ago, Syracuse showed us how that paper thing works out. That's why you gotta play the games. ThompsonHoosier and CrossboneIU22 2 Quote

IU Hoosier41 Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Oh boy. I hope for all our sake he picks Indiana. This place will be brutal if he doesn't. Napleshoosier, southsidehoosier and MemphisHoosier 3 Quote
Parakeet Jones Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Oh boy. I hope for all our sake he picks Indiana. This place will be brutal if he doesn't.

Hovadipo Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Oh boy. I hope for all our sake he picks Indiana. This place will be brutal if he doesn't. Like when Josh Cunningham chose Bradley. *shakes head in shame* WayneFleekHoosier, IU Hoosier41 and MikeRoberts 3 Quote
