Quick, everybody bash Dwyane and say that Crean is a douche!

LOL. This SCREAMS Crean.

"This is unbelievable! Incredible! Dwyane has our shorts on. Quick, press release. Phenomenal!"

First Jon Gosslein and now Wade wearing IU stuff. What is the world coming to?

And yes I realize the first nugget of info I typed in that sentence is embarrassing for me on so many levels, but it is to late to unwatch it.

I'll bet a dozen donuts within 24 hours of Crean moving to Bloomington, a U-Haul full of IU shirts, IU hats, IU keychains, IU underwear, and IU condoms was delivered to DWade's house.

He probably needed a refill on the condoms before anything else.

Another tired, completely predictable stunt by a complete dick.

God, I'm glad he's gone!!!

I think those were digitally altered Heat shorts.

I love this one. When you score in the 40's, every bucket is huge.

I was home for lunch and saw this on ESPN...I'll admit I was a little bummed about the IU shorts. But what are you going to do

Agreed. Dwyane wearing IU shorts is completely Crean's fault.

Can you blame DWade? It's Indiana! It's Indiana!

Crean apparently did send them, but that doesn't mean Wade has to wear them in public for a commercial. Very disappointing. The II, II people already think they get to claim him, this will only make it worse. I don't like it.

Bingo.

I'm sure Dwyane sends TC Miami Heat stuff. But, that doesn't mean Crean has to wear it when he's on TV at the Pacer's game.

Oh well, I'm not really that mad about it. Dwyane has done plenty of promotion for MU, and I'm guessing/hoping that he still will.

77ncaachamps · « **Reply #14 on:** May 28, 2009, 05:08:21 PM »

He's valuable to MU, but it is disappointing to see him in the red and cream.

I wonder...will IU become his 2nd Converse Wade Team? That'll reap BIGGER profits for him, I'm sure.

ErickJD08 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 28, 2009, 05:26:46 PM »

The more I think about it, the more I don't like it. All his promotion for MU, was it for MU or for Crean? If he picks up the phone and calls a recruit, who is he going to recruit for? Shows alot.

Buzz4Prez · « **Reply #16 on:** May 28, 2009, 05:41:39 PM »

I would really hope that if it comes to recruiting and both MU and IU are involved he would stay out of it. The more I think about this it disappoints me big time.

LastWarrior · « **Reply #17 on:** May 28, 2009, 06:01:05 PM »

Slap in the face to the University that took a chance on a prop 48 kid with talent. Sure he took us to the Final Four but before we say he paid his debt, let's remember that it was MU that gave him the chance to shine in the national showcase. It's not like he doesn't know how the MU players and fan base feel about Crean and his departure. He just lost a lot of credibility in my book... very disappointing.

Buzz4Prez · « **Reply #18 on:** May 28, 2009, 06:15:52 PM »

Careful there LastWarrior... who really gave DW his chance? I would say TC did, TC is who picks the recruits and pushes for them. I know MU as an institution allowed it and embraced him and gave him his education, however I would say that DW has already more than payed that back 10 fold.

don't get me wrong, this hurts, and I wish DW would have been wearing MU shorts there, but lets be honest, he will still support MU and he will still support TC

detroitwarrior · « **Reply #19 on:** May 28, 2009, 06:17:16 PM »

Disappointing. You would never see Jordan in anything but UNC clothing. If DW goes to the IU Basketball camp or does anything where he specifically advocates IU he is dead to me.

Somebody correct me but I didn't think Crean was the MU coach that began recruiting Wade. Sure Captain Douche Bag closed the deal but who brought him to Crean's attention?

Also, I will still argue that it was MU that took the chance on the prop 48 kid, not Crean... the administration could have easily have said no to his admittance.

Buzz4Prez · « **Reply #21 on:** May 28, 2009, 06:26:37 PM »

yes, but Crean was probably the one who fought for him to the administration. I give Crean most of the credit on this one, as much as you hate Crean you need to realize that he has done a lot of good for MU and has brought us to where we are today.

The MU coach that began recruiting Wade was Rob Jeter when he was working for Mike Deane. But it was Crean that went to Wild and convinced him to admit a partial qualifier, something that the school hadn't done since Gerald Posey in the late 1980s. Without that, all the recruiting doesn't matter.

NCMUFan · « **Reply #23 on:** May 28, 2009, 07:27:07 PM »

Get over it, who cares. I don't believe people will start believing Wade went to IU. All Crean will get is more Nick Williams.

Skatastrophy · « **Reply #24 on:** May 28, 2009, 07:31:52 PM »

Bleh... it's like one of my best friends just slept with my ex-girlfriend without asking me.

Not a huge deal if he would have asked me first, but since I got blind-sided by the info it stings quite a bit.
