Tom Crean

[Cheriehoop]

Indiana's Tom Crean reminds me so much of Skippy from Family Ties. Ok then just humor me and say he does .

Ha...thats great.

Speaking of Indiana. That's one team I'd like to avoid early in the NCAA's. Crean is a great coach and he's familiar with the zone. No thanks please.

Totally agree. Good big, shooters and team ball.

Nah, Tom Crean is the spitting image of Dwight Schrute.

Exactly

Crean needs to lighten up on the spray tan...he always looks a shade of orange.

I would agree. They look tough. I think they get a high seed this year, so we shouldn't have to worry about that. I just hope we don't have to play Marquette in the second round again.

I disagree Jake. I have caught almost every game of theirs this year, but they don't scare me. Our guards would eat their slow guards for breakfast. And Crean may know how to attack the zone, but his team won't (plus, what was his record against us at Marquette again?).

They tend to have long periods of disjointed offensive sets. We would create lots of turnovers and kill them with the break. Think Hollis price dear in headlights look. I hope we get them, we'd win by 15 minimum.

Indiana wont make the 2nd weekend, too much home cookin, dont see them doing much away from hoosierville.

 

[orangefan13]

We are much more athletic then Indiana.

UNC is the one I worry about. They are very tall and athletic. Although Indy can shoot it well we can really extend our zone.

 

[Orangeyes]

Crean's constant pacing and drama drive me nuts.

 

[Fjoinkay]

When I see Tom Crean I think Breakfast Club and Judd Nelson. But now I might think Skippy.

Indiana is still a team in progress. As their confidence grows, they could pull off some road wins. And their fans are crazy mad. They will travel to any NCAA site in droves. I certainly would not want to meet them in the Sweet 16 but wouldn't mind an Elite 8 shot at them.

Cheers,
Neil

Explains how they've been able to...ahem...BEET...so many good teams this year.

Hi-yo!

I remember when they played Cleveland St here in the NCAA's. The scene after the game was long over was tear stained red and white pom poms replacing Hoosier fans. That was Bobby Knight's "Season On The Brink"

Crean needs to lighten up on the spray tan...he always looks a shade of orange.

Could be the UV rays from the Chernobyl-esque meltdown of Hoosier basketball in the past decade +.

 

[kingtidge]

Good for Crean - always liked him...

Plus, he was due for some good Karma after the pile of flaming poo left on his doorstep after taking over the Hoosier gig...

But agreed, would like to avoid them...
