Obviously the most smoke is around Crean but who knows.


Not buying the Crean rumor. I think his name is the first name that had any smoke so a lot of people are just repeating the same rumor. It could very well happen and its not an unrealistic hire...but I'm not buying it just yet.

I think Crean is in our B list. Doesn't mean we'll land some badass like Izzo or something, but I think we have some bigger targets on the board.

I am actually expecting Crean, I believe Izzo and Saban are the ones pushing it.

I have a cousin that graduated from IU and lives in Indiana. He told me Crean wants out at IU and is willing to give up his buyout for a clean break. The rumor about his interest in the Bama job goes all the way back to December when he said he first heard it. But Bama is t the only job he's interested in, though is the only one talked about in IU circles. Bottom line, IU fans are sick of Crean, and Crean is sick of them.

Not sure how I feel about him. He doesn't have a great track record with his team defenses, and players seem to leave his program on the reg, at least at IU they did. I think him and Pearl in the state would be fascinating to watch though, and his offenses can be fun to watch.
