More Ridonkulousness from Crean, if true

Have you watched any Indiana basketball games at all? Guy is always out on the floor, especially when the opponent is playing offense of his end of the floor. It's a tactic, a cheap one at that. It narrows the space opponents have to run plays. The B1G is partly at fault in that no one has done a thing to stop his crap.

I think what you do is a run a few plays right into Crean. Be a shame if the lad caught an elbow or something. Not sure you could even call a foul on the offensive team because Crean shouldn't be on the court.

He is a lunatic along the bench, clapping madly like a parent who never played sports living vicariously through his 10-year-old child in rec basketball, and aggressively walking along the out of bounds marker from the corner of the floor up to and beyond the scorer's table. And the refs let him get away with it. Look into his eyes; they're crazed.

He's a time bomb waiting to go off.

I agree with your assessment of Crean. That being said, he is hardly the only basketball coach who hangs out on the floor most of the game. You see it everywhere.
The officials do a horrible job of keeping the coaches where they should be.
 










Not only does Crean have inferiority for never having played, he probably has extreme inferiority at Thanksgiving dinner too.

The guy is a tool. He has all of the negative characteristics of his Bro-in-law in SF without the moxy to back it up.

If so, why, at my last embarkment to Carver-Hawkeye Arena, did they fail to hang the appropriate standard from the structure's rafters?

When did they make Carver mobile? Unless I am using my thesaurus wrong, the word embark is used to describe getting aboard some form of conveyence, such as a plane, train or ship.

Oh please. This bit was tired back when Alf was run out of town just a step in front of a mob with pitchforks.

Again, if your team gets the automatic berth, you won your conference. See, e.g., Liberty. How did that mob end up working out, by the way?
 


Do yourself a favor and watch the tape of him with the Michigan assistant again. Watch Crean walk away laughing about it like a psycho. Then imagine Fran doing that. I would be embarrassed as an Iowa fan. But Indiana fans and society are blinded by how good the Hoosiers are on the court to really care. Crean apparently "apologized". I'm sure he REALLY is sorry. What other coach would do something like that? Coach K? Roy Williams? No, because they win with class. Crean can recruit yes. He can coach yes. But he does NOT have my respect
 


Well, he married a Harbaugh, what relevance this has to do with this thread I am not sure.

Why would anyone bring up Alfraud in an Iowa thread? That dude is a repulsive human being who ran this program into the ground. Fran has it back on track and I couldnt be happier about the direction of the program. And btw, how many NCAA tourney games did the Fraud win while he was here? All we did was win first round games EVERY year before his hairness took the reigns and promised to take us to the next level. Pierre Pierce, Northwestern, Northwestern State, Tonya, all disgraces!

Someone ban this clown. PLEASE.

First off, this is a Crean thread, not an Iowa thread. Second, leave the guy's wife out of it. Pukes like you made Lute and his wife feel unwelcome in Iowa City and frankly it would be fitting if Iowa never won another Big Ten title again.

This is what you wanted when you brought up Alford in this thread. You opened this can of worms so now you will have to live with it. I have no idea why Tonya was mentioned but again...you took the thread in this direction so don't get up on your soap box now.

Yeah, because this is a thread in THE IOWA BASKETBALL FORUM about INDIANA. If Crean leaves Indiana in the next 2-3 years, I have to think Alford is a candidate for the job. Personally, I don't want to face him in conference play and I'd rather see Indiana hire some bust and return to the crappiness they had attained a few years ago.

If so, why does the plaque on the front of the trophy say "Big Ten Tournament Champion"?

The answer is that the auto bid goes to the tournament champion, not the conference champion.

The mob worked out great. We got rid of a cancer in our program. The problem is the recovery process has been as bad as the original disease. I am glad to announce that we are now in complete remission, in other words, WE ARE BACK. ;)

Don't worry. If they hire Alford that's exactly what will happen...a bust. Alford has nothing to do with Indiana. Again...you wanted to start an argument about Alford and that's what you got. I assume you won't be on any committee helping Indiana select their next coach so what you "think" about Indiana is irrelevant. You can respond to this over and over. I don't care because I'm done with this pointless exchange...just reminding you that you're getting exactly what you wanted so stop whining about it.
