..and we got a whole 6 games out of him before he went to OSU. Lyles might as well cut out the middleman and go straight to Ohio state.
 
I say, bring it on Jaquan!

That is my point. Taking him was a big error. Don't need and don't want kids with attitude at IU. My opinion only

The coach would've went to see this kid play, and ran the other way. I watched him play 5-7 times a year when he was at evansville bosse. Not a team player, horrible attitude, very selfish. ... but I guess that just me being holier than thou.

. I don't know much about his attitude but I watched him in person, here in Fort Wayne, against Jabari Parker, Jahlil Okafor, Kendrick Nunn; he was playing with Trey Lyles, Trevon Bluiett. I know I'm missing names here. Anyways, he and Jabari Parker were the best players on the court and it wasn't even close. I'm not saying he put that together every night in high school, but he certainly has very very high upside. He couldn't be checked by anyone on the court. He was facilitating, rebounding, REALLY defending the wing, and he got to the cup at will. He got along just fine with those teammates, I'd personally assume that it had to do with the local kids he was playing with. Dude is a baller. Wish we had him honestly.

It's funny. A lot of fans wonder how he'd go play at a football school that traditionally doesn't support hoops as well. Could see him thriving at a place where most fans don't care. Just ask Stan how it feels to be in the fish bowl. I don't feel too bad for Stan, though. If you put yourself out there like that on SM...

Gotta love all the holier than thou IU fans who judge this kid but give Crean and current players who are proven trouble a complete pass. You people are ridiculous.

 

  Complete pass ?

The players served suspensions along court appointed punishments and according to one player's mother they were dealt with in house.

Not everything's thrown out into open air.

 I can only think of a couple of people that give Crean a pass and for the most part he is hounded relentlessly.
