They did a poll asking whether or not Crean should be the coach next year and 72% replied yes. Either Bozich is fudging the numbers or that is one of the worst cases of group think I have ever seen. ITH is the only place in America you could find a group of IU fans and 72% would want Crean to be the coach next year.

 

If you did the same poll on BTB it would be about 90% replying no.  Just shows the inherent bias in both locations.  A certain type of fan is going to congregate in certain places and while you paint ITH as too positive those over there would say BTB is too negative.  Both sides would also argue that the negativity or positivisty is group think.  Neither is being a full realist and the answer is more in the middle.  The sky isn't falling and we have a chance to be really good next year if the core is back (Yogi/Troy/JBJ) but the program isn't where it should be regardless.

 

Regardless Alex isn't censoring as others have said.

Not true. 

 

72% of us here at B-Town Banners want Tom Crean

By any chance, do they have cookies and milk over there?

No, but there is PLENTY of kool-aid!

I go on ITH for their coverage, which is excellent. On their forum I can tell you right now there is no censorship of opinions on the matter of Coach.

. That is crap. Any criticism is dealt with as a personal attack. This political correctness is sickening. If your not getting the job done it is a fact not a personal insult. Inside the Hall is a worthless forum with pc moderators who don't understand the first amendment

Guys, this isn't a thread about the viewpoints of certain message boards. If you want to talk about that, go ahead and make a thread about it. This is about the OP's stance on CTC keeping/losing his job.

Let's all just agree that BtownBanners is the best forum out there!

Just going to point out that there is no first amendment right to post whatever you want on privately owned forums. The owners of those sites have every right to censor anything on that site they want. The first amendment only applies to the government censoring your opinion.

You are absolutely correct. I don't go there anymore. But I think that was the goal. Run off objective viewpoints and push their propaganda.

Think BTB is the best? You're right. But talk about it here!

Are you "positive"? Hahahahaha (because everyone there is, and....) That was a lot funnier in my head

[ALASKA HOOSIER 11,264]

I'm positive that, in a round about way, it might be possible....that maybe.....some of us are the devil. I'd say 94.3% kinda feeling it may be certaintly, certain....possibly?

[OliviaPope40 6,514]

And you all get to deal with me wether you like it or not.

[mamasa 15,278]

Should be 66.6%?

I used to follow ITH closely... But Bozich seems to be really far up Tom Crean's behind... I believe that he is doing way more harm to the IU program than good because the casual IU fan turns to him and he spews bad information.. IMO, he's not helping the program move forward in any way shape or form. Other than getting his press pass revoked, what is the reason to still support Crean? (When he tweeted that Tom Crean was NEVER on the hotseat and that the media made it up I lost all respect)

I agree with you here! I used to get on that site daily for the longest time and I finally stopped a year and half or so ago. Never understood his love feat for Coach??
