re: Someone convince me that Crean isn't our best option

I have no interest in Martin, but am all in on Crean. Of course Marshall would be great, but I just see that as a fool's errand. I was pretty surprised to see Scott Drew's name on there also.

I say if you can't get Crean or Drew then go mid-major like Keatts. If there's no double/triple option that's a high-major coach, then why not try for a homerun on a mid-major with the possibility of a strikeout? I feel like Martin (C.) is a step above Romar, and Romar is a dumpster fire waiting to happen.

(Using baseball analogy since we're now a baseball school apparently )

Crean is 4X the basketball coach that Cuonzo Martin is and probably almost as good a recruiter.

As I've said before I'm not the biggest Crean fan but he would be a major step up for Missouri. I would prefer a younger coach but Crean would be a solid choice to rebuild the program back to where it was before everything went down the tubes.

Crean is only 50. His age is of no concern.

Any updates on interest from him or is it still at the rumor stage?
