Tom Crean to Alabama Rumor Thread

[LIHoosier 25,675]

Let's hope it's a change. Oh and Hova, c'mon you Spurs!!!

 

Yes!!! Don't mistake me for a superfan but I follow them on a semi-regular basis.

Remind me in a few weeks to wish y'all a Happy St. Totteringham's Day.

 

FYI, I like Southampton. Their jerseys are Candy Striped.

Your team choice probably had a better reason than mine. I just started running with Spurs on FIFA a few years ago, fell in love with Aaron Lennon and Paulinho, and bam. Had my EPL team lol.

We've got to build consistency in all areas and improve and stay the course," Crean said, "because I think they got a lot better through the year. The record didn't always reflect it, but I'm with them every day. So I'm going to be the judge of it. I have insight into this team ... and I like where it's headed."

LOL. Lost 10 of the last 15 but we are headed in the right direction, huh?

Yes, and if this team was going to be the same team he's coaching next year, maybe I could get on board.  This isn't a 12U AAU team where you can potentially coach the same core of players for a few years as they grow and mature -- this an NCAA team and you'll have players coming-and-going every year for better or worse.  It's great to hear that Crean likes where this team is headed.  It's just too bad that since they lost this afternoon, he'll never get to coach "this team" again.  Where "this team" is headed is irrelevant.  You can have a normal attrition of players in a high-major program without feeling like you start every single November in a "rebuilding" phase and I feel like that's the story of IUBB over the past couple of years.

Well, maybe he's had his last team supper. Anyone watching the airports and/or arrivals and departures?

haha exactly. Never underestimate the salesmanship of Crean.

Why do you say our AD is a wimp?

waiting for Bloomington to Boston flight..

I was never counting on our AD to make a move. Hoped Crean left on his own accord.

Might be a wimp but he is a survivor. He already sent out feelers bc it's going to happen either soon or next year.

Thanks Hova! If somethng happens it will be in the next 24 if we want our top 2 hires.

[FKfootball 1,046]

I guess not. Davis cared enough to leave. With Crean, its all about him and his massive ego.

Immediately after the game a flight took off for Chicago!

 

To me that means that our next coach is either:

 

1) Tom Thibodeau

2) Ozzie Guillen

3) Tom Skilling

4) Bill Murray

5) Scottie Pippen

6) Rahm Emannuel

7) Dick Butkus

8) Hugh Hefner or

9) Oprah

 

FWIW, I hope it's Ozzie.

Give me Bill Murray all day. "Let's go Bulls!"

But...sleeper pick: Kanye

I hope the pilot is just lost.  If he thought 'Boston' sounded like 'Chicago' I don't want to be on a plane he's flying.

Yeah, I'd rather give Crean another extension.

He has NBA connections too. Dakich may have played MJ, but BM played with MJ, Larry Bird, Charles Barkley, and Patrick Ewing.
