I don't get the word "meltdown", there would be more anti-Davis complaints after a win back in the day.
It's the contract extension, not standing behind him after he got the job, that's the problem with Glass.You lose me when you criticize Glass. I think he's done good things for IU athletics. He didn't hire Crean and standing behind him after he got the job was the right decision.
However, Crean has had his chance...after 8 years the verdict is pretty clear. He's not capable of building and sustaining an elite program/team.
not gonna bet on IU, but just think there is enough talent that a little leadership could make this team competitive if not good...maybe not great, but there is just so much talent that tehy could be good by an accidentIs there time for this team to come together and put personal goals aside and make a run? Absolutely...
Do I believe coach Crean can restore discipline and establish a team first mentality? ...hmmm...
I will always support IU, but I will bet you that Duke kills us next week...20 points....what you got?
I still think this team gets into the tourney and probably exits quick. Who knows. Maybe this is a wake up call but I don't see any big ten title or deep tourney successes with the undisciplined style they play. Still they have some pretty good talent and are a veteran team for the most part. Maybe something comes together in spite of the coaching.
I would really like to know what you think about Cal bringing in freshmen every yr and then they leave early? Do you like it,tolerate it, love it, or hate it? This is not a slam against your team. You sound like a reasonable person and I would seriously like your opinion.
Joe, I suppose what fans should really do if they want Crean gone is to quit going to the games. You are correct. Sitting at a keyboard does nothing. I truly believe with a little tweaking this team can work well this year. Let's hope Crean can right the ship. Now for those who don't want Crean to right the ship because they want him gone are just weird. I can't call them fans. True fans will always hope the best for the team year in year out, and game in game out.
You won't go far when you can't play defense.
