Men's Basketball Reunion

To me he doesn't embrace the history as well. He always seems angry at Hoosier Hysteria when it is being talked about. Last year though I think he was just angry period for whatever reason. He wouldn't even put on a pair of candy stripes. I just think he doesn't embrace like people would want him to. He seems to only embrace his players. And toy never hear from the teams his 1st 3 years.

You can knock CTC for many things (some deserved, some not), but this is not one of them. Your dislike and obvious disdain for him have clouded your perception.

No that's just what I've seen. And last year he was crappy at Hoosier Hysteria. Which made HH crappy too.

Gonna put a couple of links here you to peruse.  He has honored the past with enthusiasm throughout his tenure.

He also brought the old players back for this year's Hoosier Hysteria to present the new players with candy stripes.  

 

In one of his first years he brought back the 1983 fan banner.

 

Before every game there is a video tribute to the history of IU Basketball.  This video was instituted under Crean.

I disagree with this. I know first hand that he really is an engaging person. My issue with him is his tactical decisions not his personnel or pr decisions.

Are we talking about the same Tom Crean? Have you been under a rock?
