    Just heard the Crean firing on the noon news. Press conference this afternoon. I wonder if it's just to announce his firing or also to name the new guy.

        I hate hearing about the Crean firing. IU may just luck up and get a really good coach now.

              I'd have to think Alford would get a call, right?

              My guess would be Marshall, Alford, Brad Stevens, and the guy at Butler now.

                The more I think about it, the more I think he'd have to be the first choice. It makes too much sense.

                  I could see Alford as the prime candidate but I think he has too many ties with Bobby Knight, I don't know. Brad Stevens isn't leaving Boston, he's building something big there and they love him.

                    Honestly, if you succeed, being an NBA coach seems like a relative cake job compared to college coaching.

                      Hard to believe Crean was there for nine seasons. Seems like just yesterday IU was trying to put out the dumpster fires set by Sampson and co.

                        Crean sucked, but I hate hearing this, as its completely possible that IU could stumble onto an actual coach.

                        My guess is Marshall, then Alford. Id be shocked if Billy Donovan or Brad Stevens would give it a second thought.

                          IU fans are going nuts thinking Stevens or Donovan will take the job. Can't imagine either myself. Lets hope maybe it creates a big distraction for UCLA and Cincinnati or K State beats them.

                              I don't see the fact he played for Knight being a problem, if that's all there is to it. Just because he played for Knight doesn't mean he's the horse's patoot Knight is.
