Voting for Tom Crean as Iowa's next coach

[taffaej]

Come on people start the campaign with me. Tom clearly knows what Big Ten (and Nebraska) basketball is all about. He should never have been let go at Indiana. He might not be the big up and coming young hire but he has proven himself in this league

Can he recruit four or five star point guards?

 

[1hawkeye1]

I wouldn't be averse to this idea.

 

[SteveGarvey1]

Makes sense, his doppelganger Tom Arnold is from Iowa. That could make for some funny stuff.

 

[eledmonster]

Pass!! Do we really want another Indiana retread??

He would be a substantial upgrade from Fran.

He would be and don't think you can make any argument against it.... but it still doesn't change the fact he's a giant douche.

 

[Tierney]

He would probably recruit pretty good, but he would be lacking in the coaching part. I think Fran has had enough time to turn the program around, but I don't really seriously think the athletic director would fire him. I think Fran is a pretty good guy, but it doesn't look like he is doing very good this year. I like Baer, but when one of your star players was a walk-on it probably isn't a very good sign.

 

[InGoodCo]

He's already turned the program around... Fran's issue has been keeping it there and taking another step forward. This season can only be looked at as a step back.

Do you think his brother-in-law would come and cheer for the Hawks too?

As the man in your avatar would say, "You serious Clark?"

 

[DDThompson]

That’s funny and disturbing at the same time.

This alone should cross him off any long list

I highly doubt that.

Is Raveling still available ... he could recruit. Plus he's got all that Nike money to spread around. Do you think he's forgiven us yet?

 

[CyberJJJ]

If Crean were the Hawk coach, who would he Crean first?

Maybe they'd be a 2-for-1 deal.
