Crean may have done it

Looks like Zeller to IU is the most likely thing.  Not bad for IU/Crean, I will have to admit.

He'll transfer after his freshman year.

I'm taking bets on that...how much you want to lose?   ;)

His job is 100% safe now.  I think the fanbase values keeping recruits in-state more than winning in the short term, so the fanbase will be back with him.

He's proved he can recruit big men now.
He HAS to thank Indiana for that.


But he had to take over a program and manage it by Creaning players and whittling down the talent to the point that he can promise immediate playing time yet maintain the allure of being a significant D1 program.

Good for Crean, I would be estatic to get a big man that is even close to as highly ranked as him at MU, but if history has shown us anything, Cody is probably a bit overrated.

Luke, RSCI - 34, 13.1 mpg, 4.2 ppg, 2.6 rpg career playing at ND

Tyler, RSCI - 18, 17.4 mpg, 9.3 ppg, 4.6 rpg last year for a pretty bad UNC team, although he did have a big game in their exhibition opener

Cody: RSCI (current) - 14, ?, ?

Now that he has talent there is no excuse for not winning a few games each year in the dance. His next task is to learn to coach. Big hurdle. Little man.

Good for him.   I always assumed the homegrown bigs would fling themselves at him like Asian Carp once he got settled in.   Now maybe he will have the tools to confront his other weakness, in-game adjustments.

I agree, good for him. It took a while , but his "It's Indiana!" proclamation is ringing true. Quality recruits like Zeller commit to the school because of tradition. And these recruits can hide a coaches shortcommings (for a while).

And Tom Crean is still the man who betrayed his Marquette players and employer the University, right?

What's the excuse for not winning now going to be since Crean appears to have talent on the roster?

The sun was in my eyes...

The dog ate my game plan...

Joanie was up all night with gastro intestinal distress...

I was out celebrating my son being selected MVP of my basketball camp...

I couldn't game-plan knowing the timer on my tanning bed was broken.

Like it or not landing Zeller and Etherington, along with Perea, Jurkin and Patterson next year probably means that IU will be in the upper portion of the B10 pretty quick.

Definitely got the one he needed. Landing him is probably more important for Crean than how good he actually ends up being, at least for now.
