re: Possible coaching candidates

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.
