Tom Crean to Alabama Rumor Thread

[FKfootball 1,046]

All these rumors are BS. Crean isnt leaving. I actually know one of IUs biggest boosters and nobody has even asked him about contributing to a buyout. Crean is here to stay. We just need to get over it.

The one I have spoken too has said just the opposite of this. I think there might be a rift right down the middle on who wants him here and who does not betweeen boosters like regular fans.

Man what a buzz kill!

Whew, just saw a thread on Peegs with B1G basketball coaches salaries. I knew Crean had a hefty paycheck, but I didn't realize he was number 1. Izzo is 2nd.

And we clearly are not getting our money's worth.

Go full on RMK and start throwing chairs.  Start with the one Glass is sitting in, then move to the one Crean is sitting in.

Noticed that as soon as I posted, thanks!

Isn't that poster with the info on 247 an old friend of BTB? The name sounds familiar.

 

Edit: To be clear, I'm not trying to call him out regarding his info. I have no idea if he has sources or not.

Its Campcrean I do believe. I don't recall him ever having sources. I could be wrong though.

[LazOffTheBench 3,638]

Some boosters ( from what I've heard ) are still very impressed with Crean's handling of the academic aspects of the program. He has been strong there. Those boosters tend to want to keep him here regardless of how his teams perform on the court. So I think there is indeed a split between types of boosters.

Read my post, I summed up the post from on 247.

They already have the buyout money.

That recruiting budget compared to our results is so laughable. O$U gets that talent for a quarter of the cost. This is infuriating to me. We pay top dollar and get middle of the pack results. How can anyone be happy with our results????
