I remember asking myself this question a lot during the last couple Mike Davis years. We had just missed the tourney 2 years in a row, and everyone in the world knew that Davis wasn't the guy and should be fired. Everyone except for our administration of course. They were hell bent on giving Davis one more year which cost us big time.
Now the same thing is happening again. Everyone who knows anything about basketball knows that Crean isn't the guy and will not be the coach here long term. Everyone except Fred Glass of course. Glass is apparently still in love with the Clapper and wants to give him one more year. Meanwhile, Greg Marshall is out in the wings and supposedly wants the IU job. We are going to pass though. We are going to pass on a guy who has been a HC for 17 years, finishing 1st place in his conference 9 of those years and finishing 2nd place in his conference 5 of them. He has also won his conference tournament championship 8 times. So in 17 years as a HC he has won 17 regular season championships and conference tournaments. Think about that for a minute. Again though, we are going to pass on him in order to keep the Clapper.
So why again do we continually have the most incompetent administration in college athletics? They really are asleep at the wheel.
