dwtaylor1055 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Nothing but respect for Crean a great pickup. This kid will be a stud in the NBA barring any career ending injuries. My wife and I sent a wedding invite to Coach and the team in 2016(married in Bloomington) and as expected they did not attend but Coach sent us a few goodies with a nice message from him and the team.

Edwards said three things led him to choosing Crean and Georgia. 1. Wanted to stay in state. and two of his most favorite players were both coached by Crean. 2. DeWayne Wade 3 .

Drroogh Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Good for both of them, and I hope for both of their sakes Crean has learned a lot from the way things ended at IU and the year off he took. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Oladipo Setting aside the uneven successes of his college teams, you've got to give Crean credit for NBA development...lots of success stories in the NBA for Crean. If I'm a kid wanting to play at the next level, Crean can make a very compelling case for success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Crean were still coach at IU if Edwards would have come to IU,he said Wade and Oladipo were his favorite players, and who he tries to pattern his game after.

He also said the importance of staying at home. No chance i find it ironic that Crean couldn’t get a top 5 in-state prospect to stay home in year 9 at IU, but landed one in his first year at Georgia. The excitement of the unknown can intrigue prospects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crean landed some 5 stars at IU they just became less and less after awhile,none from Indiana towards the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zlinedavid Posted February 17, 2019 Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 Good for Tom. No ill will towards him at all. That said, getting/acquiring talent wasn't Crean's biggest issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
