Crean Speaks

[iubhounds]

I tuned in too late to the ESPN Studio game analysis when they were showing highlights of the day games. Tom Crean was one of three studio announcers. By the time I heard the word Indiana from another room and got to the tv ... all I heard him say "their conditioning was poor" ... How can that be from spending all summer posting videos on social media of them working out in deep sand and lifting weights ????

I know ... I am just stirring the pot a little.

Crean would fix it with Hot Yoga.

If he were coach, still. We wouldn’t play defense but offense would be fire. Especially with the talent

He wouldn't be able to get the players. Recruiting had died. Everyone knew he was a carnival barker.

He is now where he should be ... in a tv studio.

If he had NIL.. He could get the talent. The offense was amazing: Players would come to be show cased.

my opinion of crean notwithstanding, he isn't wrong. we weren't quick or strong.

but yesterday was a mental collapse more than anything. guards looked scared. offense plodded about. D was slow to recover too often. no leadership.

that's how a guy gets a board laying on his back - playing a very unaggressive team.

He still got talent for a couple years at Georgia until he didn't.

Crean always has been a talking head just as the TV turds are.

Will never understand the disrespect and lack of appreciation this fanbase has for Crean after he brought the program back to a respectable level from the ashes Sampson left behind.

If I coached against Crean, I would play zone. It seemed to be effective vs his teams.

I'm sure we all respected him for rhat and appreciated him for it. Calling him a used car saleman coach etc is just the truth. Thin skin isnt good to have for someone as the head coach at Indiana U

Pearl will be our next coach, unless he wins the natty.
