Crean's Tweets (from earlier today):
"I just received word that the fake twitter thats being used by a very troubled person is reporting false things on that account."
"Like I dont have enough going on that I need to respond to this. This is the only twitter account for me."
I think TC was referring to this tweet by a certain CoachTomCrean (yesterday):
"So proud of my bro in law. New coach for the 49ers!"
-
Glad to see that F*ckin's messin' with Tommy Boy has rattled his cage.
-
Still another reason that I always try to remember that Twitter starts with the word Twit.
-
I can't believe it's taken him this long to find out about that account... You'd think IU would have people to check in on things like this.
-
["So proud of my bro in law. New coach for the 49ers!"
His brother in law wouldn't happen to be a Harbaugh, would he? Wonder Tony LaRussa thinks about this?

Way to be, Homeboy.
-
That's fantastic. I check the pseudo account periodically, but haven't in some time. Way to go Z man!
-
Not much funnier than a dimwitted guy with no sense of humor being goofed on by one of Scoop's finest. And now that TC has been tipped off (a PM from his former boy Friday?) it's even better.
-
Thankfully, our coach has more to do after a game than tweet.
-
This is fantastic!
-
I can't believe it's taken him this long to find out about that account... You'd think IU would have people to check in on things like this.
FWIW, I didn't see anything in his tweet that made me think that he just found out about the account. In fact, I think his tweet suggests that he knew about the account. You may disagree. I think that this is probably just the first time that he felt compelled to respond...to discredit a rumor about a family member.
In any event, this is holy grail in fake twitter accounts -- having the real person engage. Congrats and nice work.

Are we sure he's commenting on the 49ers job? Maybe he's disappointed in the amount of times CTC has reported 'Time to tan.'
-
This is fantastic!
How would you like it?!!?
@puertoricannightmare I love IU. @TomCrean is my lovable, huggable stud muffin. #dreamboat #hubbahubba
-

Does this refer to going winless in the Big Ten this year, despite having aTop 10 class that is now sophomores? Seems to think Zeller coming in will change things. When is the last time a 190 lbs 6'10 freshman made a significanrt difference for his team? His brothers sure did not. Bottom 3 finish for IU in 2012 too. ;D

I guess I just assumed had he known about the account he would have had it taken down as soon as possible. Isn't Twitter pretty strict about false identities on their site, or am I way off base?
-
A few questions:
1) I wonder which of Tommy's interns is in charge of his Twitter account?
2) If they did in fact just find out about it, does IU offer any courses with the word "Investigative" or "Research" in the title?
3) If it's been known by the TC Twitter Team for some time, why the response now? I didn't know the Harbaughs were such a sensitive topic. (When your family member is a celebrity in his/her own right, is he/she off-limits?)

CTC did go after Joanie rather hard.
"what I didn't tell him was, I snuck a pair of joanie's panties in the box too. I love it when Dwyane cuckolds me."
Still my favorite Tweet.

Obviously, I have no idea whether they knew about the account previously, but was just offering my opinion on what he said.
The Harbaugh thing could have finally drawn him out because he might not want anything out there that could affect the job-search (and/or he doesn't want to get scooped before he has a chance to leak the story).
-
Or he's senstive to how badly he botched his (heaven sent) departure from MU.
Didn't John Harbaugh spill the beans on some radio station and then it showed up on ESPN? What a butcher job, however typical for the a-hole.
-

This whole thing is sophomoric and yet at a visceral level it is devastatingly funny. Takes one back to those simpler days of burning bags on porches and prank phone calls. But Warrior is correct - having the victim engage confirms victory. If Ziggy is flying this jet he has nbot just earned his wings but should be elevated to Ace status.
-

This is fodder for Round Two: "Since John spilled the beans on my butt screwing Marquette, let me be the first to congratulate Jim on doing the same to Stanford as he takes his act to Ann Arbor..." It hits the Bronzed Beast of Bloomington on many levels...

For old time sake, seems like you guys are hankering for some Harbaugh family members. LOL

I remember when this was posted the first time...and I thought then what I think now...Jack Harbaugh is an staggering ego maniac. Who, in that room, gave a rat's ass about the Stanford v USC game? He's basically slapping himself on the back for what a great son he has. I wonder why he didn't mention that he was basically stealing money from Marquette University. Chicago-style ghost-payrolling at its finest.
My God, are we lucky to be rid of these jerkoffs.
-

Is this what Marquette got for paying Harbaugh a six figure salary?
-
How do you really feel PRN?
-
What a loser! I will say I had a convo. with Jack at an Mu game one night and this was in Tommys last or second to last year and he said to me " If we could just get some big guys we would be awesome" ...thought it was a funny comment as it almost seemed to be rubbing salt in what had to be an open wound for the Tanned one.
-
Canadian Dimes calling Jack Harbaugh a loser. Priceless.
You may want to look at Jack's accomplishments in life and compare them to yours Robbie.
-
I remember back when this started crean made a post about his being 'official' and how there were some fake accounts out there. So unless i'm way off this is not the first time he's heard about it.
Perhaps he just didn't put the time into contacting the site to get it taken down.
-

I think you're on to something here... CTC has reported "Time to tan" way to few times to accurately represent Tom Crean's tanning schedule.

Kanye West has accomplished more than your run of the mill forum junkie. Does that make him not a loser?

You mean the guy that's a multi-platinum recording artist, fashion designer and owner of multiple restaurants?
Yes, he's less of a loser than the guys that live in their mom's basements posting on MUScoop.
-

No... he's a loser because he won't admit he's a gay fish.

I would say "loser" Jack Harbaugh has accomplished some pretty impressive things professionally and personally.
He won a college national title as a player, he won a national title as a head coach. Coached in the pros and major college ball (Michigan, Iowa, etc). One son played in the NFL. Another is the head coach in the NFL. All his kids are well educated, good people....that stuff usually happens because of parenting.
I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he's not a loser.
-
looks like coach tom crean was right.....
Jim Harbaugh agreed to a five-year, $25 million contract to become the San Francisco 49ers' head coach Friday, according to team and league sources.
The 49ers announced a news conference scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET, but did not indicate the reason.
Earlier Friday, a source told ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen that Stanford was the favorite to retain Harbaugh's services.
On Thursday, Harbaugh met with top Stanford officials -- including university president John Hennessey -- so that the school could make its best offer to try to retain him. The university reportedly increased an offer it had made to Harbaugh in December.
The 49ers met with Harbaugh Wednesday, and a source said that on Thursday night, after news broke that Harbaugh would not go to the Miami Dolphins, San Francisco was willing to increase its offer.
Information from ESPN.com's Adam Schefter and The Associated Press was used in this report.

He's not gone from our hearts, though.
-
So Jack Harbaugh put two of his kids into the NFL as head coaches. What a Loser!
-
So Harbaugh makes the niners go 0-16 this year and then gets to draft Luck. Clever.
-

I don't think the elder Harbaugh "put" two of his kids into the NFL as head coaches. You make it sound like he picked up the phone, called the team owners, and made them offers they couldn't refuse.
That being said, put me in the camp of Mr Harbaugh as "not a loser".
-
hmmm....CoachTomCrean is gone.
I think that sucks! I'm guessing a C&D letter must have arrived in the mail.

Correct....but typically a person is shaped by their parents, their environment, etc, etc. That's what I meant...he and his wife I'm sure are very proud of the accomplishments of their children. I can't imagine there are too many parents that have two kids as head coaches in the NFL. Quite an accomplishment.

I did, I even cleared the cache in Firefox, and tried it in IE and chrome. I see...(see attached)...
You guys might just be having a regional problem...

It tells me the account is suspended.

Odd...still alive and well here in Colorado!
Edit: got it - if you log out of twitter you can still see the page. If you're logged in you get the suspended message.

Works for me. Which MU fan hosts this Twitter account? LOL

Ya think it had anything to do with this:
http://www.mercurynews.com/sunnyvale/ci_17030739
"SB 1411 makes it a misdemeanor to impersonate someone on the Internet. Anyone, according to the statute, who "knowingly and without consent credibly impersonates another actual person through or on a Web site" or by opening an e-mail account or social profile for purposes of harming, intimidating, threatening or defrauding another person is guilty of a misdemeanor. The punishment is a fine up to $1,000 or a county jail term of up to one year or both."

coachtomcreans's "time to tan" tweet got a big laugh on local radio here in central IN and I think that was the final straw. hehe....
Tom Crean has simply been a disaster at IU thus far, his teams are getting worse by the game. Northwestern just kicked the Hoosier's ass's tonight and it was not as close as the final score stated.
He can't coach post men, he does not even attempt to throw the ball down low. His teams are fundamentally the worst I have ever seen.... EVER. All his offense tries to do is go one on one and hoist up a 3 at the last minute. Or, we have witnessed this season a thing we Hoosier fans call the "dribble weave" not "dribble drive" the "dribble weave"... It is a thing to behold, 3 players all above the 3 point line all doing a Harlem Globetrotter figure 8. ?-( :(
This Charlatan won 4 Big Ten games last season he will probably win less this season with the entire same team returning. ?-(
I have had it with this snake oil salesman, after watching Bob Knight for over 25 years and then having Mike Davis and Tom Crean shoved down our throats is truly torture. And Davis was a better coach than Crean. At least his team played hard. This is embarrassing, and what few Tom Crean apologists that are left are even beginning to wonder if IU made a colossal mistake.
The time for excuses is over, and I think Crean is beginning to feel the heat. He benched lazy ass Christian Watford for the first time in 2 years to start the second half tonight.
You all got lucky getting Buzz, he is a far superior coach than Crean. And I don't care if all these 5 star players make it to IU.... (which I am doubting) It won't matter, Crean can't coach them up.
Al McGuire was the best.... Good luck this year Marquette ....
If any of you want a good laugh, watch an IU game soon....

LOL, this is nothing new to Tom Crean's offense (and was mostly called the three man weave here...). If you're lucky, maybe IU can dig up a minor violation or two in the next couple years. That would also get me out of losing a bet :)

I watched the Harlem Globetrottters on espn this weekend. Their offense does look like I4's. 3 man weave, a sideshow Bob on the bench coaching and a bunch of dudes launching "4 point shots".
Why Trend isn't playing with them or the and 1 tour is beyond mee.

Any of you Crean stalkers hang out at the I4 Event at Joe's on Weed this past Saturday? ;)

You are not the first IU fan I'm met that has told me this. Many of the fans I talk to are amazed that the pg has to check the bench between dribbles to make sure Crean hasn't changed his play call.

This could be a recap of The Bronzed Beast of Bloomington's tenure at Marquette. Scary.

Can I ask what this big bet is? I take it that it is when and if Bronzy gets canned.
Who all is involved?

Don't you lose the bet next year? ;D
Ahem...the winner of the bet will be determined On Nov 1, 2012 (or earlier if I win...)
