Fundamentals Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 In sharp contrast to a productive and positive first month on the job by Mike Woodson, there is this update on the former IU Head Coach. All sounds painfully familiar. https://www.google.com/amp/s/ugawire.usatoday.com/2021/04/20/tom-creans-blows-it-again-former-players-and-media-sound-off/amp/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been saying it since he was hired. The Georgia fans wanted him fired over a year ago but he apparently has a huge buyout. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, he will be doing that in year 4 of his current job, lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC2345 Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Crean has like 7 guys coming in already and still chasing transfers. He's going to end up finding a way to improve the team enough to make the tournament and his agents going to get him a nice extension lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU_Realist Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Tom Crean is going to have a hard time with the one time free transfer. Players aren’t going to put up with the same crap he has always done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should thank him....him getting that huge contract at Georgia sure saved IU some cash. Let's hope Archie uses him too. If he can pull down 2-3 million a year at his next job I'm sure our donors would appreciate it! 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some things never change, I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

addictedtoIU Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 Yeah Tom Crean can sell his experiences at Marquette and Indiana and brag about all his lottery and first round picks. That's gonna give him a few years at new positions. But he eventually will have to save himself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JABBATHEHOOSIER Posted April 21, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 I know there is lots of hate for him in the IU community, but I will always root for him. I always liked the guy. I'm not saying he shouldn't have been fired here but I will always appreciate the dark days he weathered for this program. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why some still need to pile on after all these years is baffling. Especially when he reached levels of success here in his best years that his successor never came close to achieving. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
