Yesterday afternoon, I called my father and had resigned myself to the fact that there would be another year of the Crean era. During the call, my 75 year old stepmother was in the background telling Dad to tell me that Tom was gone. I scoffed at the comment and told dad that wasn't in the cards.
Today, I called back. Linda answered and I asked her why she had said that. She had been at the physical therapist yesterday for work on her recently repaired knee and the tech told her that Crean had told the team the GT game would be his last. This was at a well respected orthopedic facility in Indianapolis.
I only bring this up because of all the back and forth that has occurred over the last week on this board about sources and rumors. At the end of a giant period of speculation, it turns out that the person that broke the news to me was someone only interested because I'm, as is my brother and my daughter, are IU grads. That and she has to attend family events planned around IU games.
It's funny how things come to light. I thought I would share this!
