Like TC, Wojo is long on coach speak and short on personality. Unlike TC, he doesn't seem to be a pr!ck. Until Wojo starts berating the waitstaff at his club, doling out all the summer camp trophies to his kids, screaming at other team's assistants in public, bullying the young people in the athletic office, etc., etc., etc., I can live with his bland personality. And I won't care about how he exits - but I didn't care how TC left either - I was just grateful that he left, period.

I was there for the last year of TC's tenure. Where did you hear this?

Listened to his coaches show for about 3 years, where he said the same robotic coach speak every show every time.  Personality of a card board box. 
Truly enjoyed listening to oneil, deane buzz and others.  Looked foward to their shows and hearing about them and the team.  Completely, stopped listening to Crean's incredibky boring and unintelligent.  To each his own, he will probably fit in well at ESPN

As I suspected, you haven't listened to him on television as an analyst so your thoughts (and those of other bitter Marquette fans who haven't seen him in his new role) are irrelevant to the discussion.

Crean can actually be pretty fun and engaging in the right circumstances.
Check out the interview he did with Pardon My Take a few months back, for example.
I think he'll do well at ESPN.
And I think some people need to get over it.

The guy is boring nothing to get over.  Do i think buzz or ko or anyother mu choaches that left are boring?... no.

+1000 after about 5 years of the NITs and ncaa first round embarrassments i was more than done. 
Tap u forgot the refusal to shake other coaches hands and the post game tantrums that led to blowing off press conferences n radio.  Pure ahole

I've heard him 'Lanche - unimpressed. Maybe over time he'll get better.

He was charming and funny at the 100 year celebration.  Who knows?  Maybe with the lack of pressure he will become informative and entertaining.  It worked for Nick Faldo.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Multiple sources - there also was a poster (here or Dodds, not sure which) who was one of the "abused". Even his staunchest defender (Chico) conceded he was a total pr!ck to work for.

I've heard that for the full time staff but by "young people" I assumed you meant the student staff. Never heard or experienced anything of the sort.
