Tom Crean to Alabama Rumor Thread

[Rookie33 932]

Any other reason? That should be a common characteristic amongst upper level d1 players

He's the only member of the "movement" that hasn't played like a "bowel movement"?

So he's the only player that doesn't suck

Senior leaders don't have to be your best players or even rotational players.  They can be the leaders who get the team together for outings, for extra practice, push talented younger players to get better, be a voice of reason before driving a vehicle drunk, etc.  The excuse of being the youngest team in the tourney is dumb.  We're the youngest because players didn't like the lack of structure, the coach, the dynamics, or they were simply Creaned.  It's dumb and there is a pattern of it not working but let's get up and run into the wall again.  yay!

Hes the only one that consistently gives an effort that you can say, win or lose, at least we played hard and fought.

Hate when people act like they're taking some noble stance and having a positive impact in the long run by not going to games.

"I support the program, not just one team."

Just go watch the boys play, and cheer on the Cream and Crimson. They worked hard to get there, and the program needs its fans. If you stop going because of Crean, you're part of the contingent ruining the fact that we're an intimidating place to play.

I get that but it does send a message. Dakich talked about on air.

Cub fans go to games regardless of performance and that sends a message too.

Nah. This assumes we have no big departures. Roster still isn't all that great.

 

It's not that great, AND it's past "full" With 2 guaranteed to be leaving to make room for Crean's flavor of the month, I don't see this getting any better in the future.

I agree that folks should support the team and I do always, but I think that Indiana isn't nearly as intimidating of a place to play as it once was. Not because of fan support, but simply because we haven't been that good. 

[Myrmidon76 614]

Assembly Hall is just as intimidating as it ever was. The home team playing there....not so much.

Since message boards are the place to report rumors, apparently someone on Peegs has a brother's cousin's uncle who is supposed to be a realtor who has listed the Crean house in Bloomington.

Whether or not this is accurate, that used to be the running gag when a team folded badly or lost a big game - for the fans to fill the coach's front yard with "for sale" signs.

Yeah I saw that too.  Maybe that coincides with what that NeverDaunted twitter guy posted on Friday, and there will be some kind of announcement tomorrow.

 

I doubt it though.

[FKfootball 1,046]

Crean is our coach for a while. Glass is 100% behind this guy.

Although I'm pretty sure that Never Daunted guy doesn't know anything about the situation as he is trying to make people believe, he also is putting his credibility on the line...but he seems to be the type that doesn't care about that, as long as he gets people in a frenzy.

Needs a dislike button.

Thats the hard truth. Make Assembly Hall a Ghost Town and maybe that will change.

That would make you part of the problem. Believe me, Fred Glass couldn't care less what you think. Especially if you are not supporting the program. You just don't get it.

Did you see the photos of our last home game. Ghost town is an understatement. Like I have said, looks Luke Glass will ride the Crean pony right out of town. Just sad he's an Indiana grad, as McRobbie & a lot of the former higher ups weren't and really didn't care about Indiana basketball. Glass cares more about his ego and "the contract".

I mean while it might not be the best way to show your displeased it would get a point across because as soon as revenues start to fall he will notice.
