Exactly. What a joke. How does Crean snow everyone over everywhere he goes? The only thing he deserves credit for is the sh*tty team he puts on the court. I apologize because I know several of you hate it when people post about Crean now that he is gone and no longer has anything to do with MU basketball, and some of you even like him. But I will forever remember what a douche bag that guy is.
I love this comment:
I have a much better way to distract the opposing team. Just re-arrange Assembly Hall to be like Memorial Gym (Vanderbilt) in Nashville Tn. That way the team benches would be underneath the baskets at each end of the Hall. Imagine the opposing team trying to shoot free throws (or do anything for that matter) with Tweet'n Tom doing the following.
(1) Doing his "Big Bird" impersonation
(2) Running the 40 yard dash in the coach's box repeatedly
(3) Standing on the end-line - staring at the shooter - with his hands behind his back
(4) Doing his Rodney Dangerfield impersonation
(5) Near nonstop clapping from start to finish
(6) Keeping current on Twitter
Not only would it be effective, but no other school could duplicate it.

No. No. No. The marketing department stole them from San Diego State. Not Crean. But I'd have to assume Crean did bring them to IU considering they weren't there before.
I guess my point was we can't be mad at another school for stealing the idea when we stole it ourselves. We usually get the credit though because prior to this year SDSU was crap and no one paid attention to them...
... except for this guy.

My mother used to say, "copying is a form of flattery."
TallTitan, read the article. Maybe we stole it...but what makes it even worse, then, is Crean is taking credit for it.
Did anyone see the Big Heads in the IU crowd last night? At least one group of people I saw were wearing them, it was three guys in a row with a Bo Ryan, Bob Knight, and Tom Crean image plastered to their faces. But because they are so big, they had to keep moving them on their faces because the eyeholes didn't match up. It was hilarious. I don't think they quite understand how Big Heads are supposed to work just yet.
