Is IU Content to be Little Engine that Could?

[IU Hoosier41 14,465]

We all know I've had my issues with Doyel in the past, but he hit a home run on this article and it raises some really good questions.

I'd love to see Fred Glass answer that question.

Question for you all, do you think Glass & IU are content with our performance? (This is not a question on if you are content, we all know NONE of us are.)

I'm afraid they are. Still have the 2009 mindset.

It's so embarrassing. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

I believe that Glass is just to proud of a person to admit he was wrong with the extension.

[LIHoosier 27,031]

I think Glass is content, I'm 50/50 about whether the Prez/trustees are.

[Uwe Robb 1,072]

Sadly enough I agree with everything he says. I just can't stand the way this smug son of a bi*ch delivers his message.

 

I mean a lot of us use the verb "Creaned" but are the great sportswriters using this kind of slander in their articles?

 

Just not a fan of Doyel.

I was just talking to my friend about this the other day. Remember when it was WHEN IU makes the tournament not if. Remember when it wasn't IF IU wins but WHEN. You didn't worry about who was and wasn't coming back as much because you knew there was going to be a strong team no matter what.

Ahh the good ol days lol. I just remember when IU always made the tournament and were in the sweet sixteen. Remember when we never lost to Northwestern. Hell remember when we never lost to Wisconsin? I guess everything changes right?

I honestly dont feel like Glass has made much progress at IU outside of financials.

Remember when we felt like we had a coaching advantage on any given day?  Boy that has sure changed.

Sorry couldn't read it. Lost me at the title knowing it was a slam piece for Purdue fans.

They seem so long ago but not so long ago at the same time

It's really not though. It describes the state of the program pretty damn accurately.

[KelleyHoosh 2,263]

If and when there is a coaching change made, we will know the answer

Its sounding more and more like he's staying. Perhaps we need to start talking recruiting.

how are we supposed to know about the Prillers and Aprils of the world? I haven't turned any rocks over yet!

Fair enough. I've never heard of a five time national champioin ever described that way. Maybe a helms champion though.

You just described the entire article. We aren't a 5 time National champion right now. We are a has been. Is IU okay being a has been?

You're missing out on a good read, and that's a silly reason not to read it.

Cribb notes if you're old enough?

I want a coach with multiple final 4's and I want to pay him handsomely. There are only a few. And Calipari and Bohiem aren't included.
