Any TC tweets yet? I'm sure he wanted that Marq belt and National title shot, he sure brought the candy canes back to prominence, props for that
Love that JFB just had the biggest game of his career and MU is still at the front of his mind.
Also great that Wes has made Steph Curry keep Wes' MU pic as his twitter avatar throughout due to losing the MU Davidson bet.
Thanks for posting Chicos.... just awesome seeing him so pumped up about #mubb!!! Gotta keep it goin on Saturday!!
His Steph Curry bet is paying big dividends. Very entertaining.

Wes SHOULD be glowing. He's a big reason we got Vander, and Buzz was a big reason he's gettin' paid.

After that game Wednesday night, I had the best feeling imaginable leading up to last night's game. Could we have asked for better symbolism? Former MU stud dominates Miami at the highest level.
Love these tweets... Announcers at last night's team gave little to no credit to MU's D. Even Seth Davis loved it: "Man Marquette has absoluteyly turned Miami's water off." (whatever that means lol).

Again, to all those Scoopers who wonder why Buzz has our post players hedge screens so far out on the floor, yesterday is the exact reason. Hedge the screen hard...made Larkin go around...and by the time he got there, his defender was right back in front of him.
Buzz knows what he is doing.

That's actually a great description of what happened.
Tom Crean hasn't tweeted anything since 3/27. It would be extremely classy of him to congratulate Buzz. I'll wait for him to finish pouting first.
Love reading the tweets and seeing the old players chime in. JFB in the Lazar jersey is great.
Even LaTroy Hawkins made the cut......?

Hards,
As far as TC tweeting to congratulate Buzz and MU, I'm little surprised at this request. It seems whenever Crean has tweeted in the past here about Marquette, some of you guys have gone ape batshirt crazy in the past. Now you want him to tweet about MU? Should Buzz tweet to thank TC for giving him a job at MU?
Which is it?

He was tweeting on the 27th about 6 members of the IU team making All Big Ten academic team. That matters to folks at some schools. I didn't see the tweet, but I got it from the IU Alumni association. It was the most of any conference champion in the country...they're trying to balance academics and success athletically. I know people will pooh pooh that here, but it is a source of pride for many at IU. Fire away

You seem a little testy this morning. Rough night last night? So are you insinuating that MU doesn't care about academic success in their athletes?
Anyone know what/if our recruits have been tweeting?

I don't know why some folks feel the need to constantly rag on Crean, but you don't need to always be his defender, either. If we could just let some of this stuff die, Scoop would be a much better place.

Hold on skip. You're going to lump me in with them when specifically said (In the first link you provided, 2nd page) that we should thank TC for some of his tweets. Perhaps I should start lumping you in with groups when it is convenient.
A sample tweet that CTC could put out that would reek of class "@Marquettebb Congrats on the Elite 8, Beat Syracuse!"
Plain and simple. I have no idea why you constantly defend someone who you think is a douch, et al.

Plain and simple, I don't defend him for being a douche. I acknowledge the great things he did for Marquette and for IU and I find it moronic, immature, etc when people pretend those things didn't happen, or worse use blatant lies or unfactual statements in the process. There is a difference.
On the tweets, plain and simple, if he were to do what you suggested, some people here would go batshirt crazy because that's what some people here do. And the cycle continues.
I also find it ironic when you said only two weeks ago that you were done with TC commentary, yet you couldn't help yourself and went down that path again in this thread...way to control yourself.

You don't get to pick and choose. Tom Crean is an a$$hole. Period.

Yup, we get it. Kevin O'Neil....class A douche, yet people "defend" him. Why? Because he saved MU from being Loyola. We have people literally bending themselves over daily for their favorite douche politician. Why? Because <fill in blank politician> represents MY INTERESTS.
Do you now get it?
It's about what they got done, what they accomplished....you guys keep thinking it's defense of his personality, when repeatedly said that isn't the case.
It's taking a non-NIT team to a Final Four in 4 years, bringing D-Wade, Novak, Diener, Matthews, etc to MU.
It's taking a team that had 3 guys flunking out, drug use everywhere to a Big Ten title with 6 guys Big Ten All Academic team
But yes, he's an a$$hole. Going back to 2006 here I have said that....REPEATEDLY. I don't know why PRN, Hards, you and others cannot understand the difference. No one is defending his doucheness....NO ONE.

He was also posting a lot of Jesus stuff too. Wonder if Jesus showed him how to go after Meyer or master the Fly-By Handshake? Words are too easy. What a complete fraud.
Cream: "What this group accomplished this season has been nothing short of fearless competing."
I don't know what that means.
Gonna see if I can re-hijack this thread back to the original (and perhaps more constructive) point.
I love how next year's recruits have been tweeting during the games--Duane, McKay, JJJ, Dawson all tweeted during/after the games (looks like Burton isn't on twitter).
Just seems like they are super-pumped about Marquette and have already bought into Buzz and the whole culture. Really cool to see they're comments mixed in with all of the NBA alums--reinforces the awesome community that MU has generally, and the basketball community specifically.

So they've accomplished an action?
This dude has got the whole wack job goin' on.
Crean really doesn't get the whole 140 characters thing, does he? Twitter isn't there so you can write a blog post 140 characters at a time, it's there to get short, concise points across and go on with your day.
Also...I really feel that a lot of the abuse CBB is getting in here is just silly. The guy is an alum of multiple schools and thus cheers for multiple schools. I feel he's been pretty consistent in his support of Buzz at least over the past 2-3 years while also being consistent in his assertion that he didn't want to pass too much judgment, positive or negative, until 5 years was up.
Sometimes teams you like or follow do things you don't like. Chicos I assume cheered for IU before Crean and will do so after Crean. He has stated numerous times in the past he is not a fan of Crean the individual. So why keep berating him about Crean?
Yes...there are times he trolls for responses a bit. But more often people try to call him out to get him to make those types of comments. This is a MU board, and as much as we may have wanted it, we aren't playing Crean. Let's focus on Boeheim and Syracuse.
...says the guy who complained about Crean's Tweeting style.

I never knew Crean was a Jesus Freak. Funny how His words don't guide his actions.
Its part of his inner circle. You know, guys he's tight with like McCarthy, Maddox, LaRoussa, Sheets, and JC.

What? What does that have to do with anything brought up up to that point in the thread? The point wasn't that he was a phony for Tweeting about his Academic All Big Ten players, it was that he hasn't tweeted since before the loss.
Thank goodness he has found God since arriving at Indiana. Such a religious institution, especially compared to Marquette...

I never said I was done permanently. Just that thread probably. I don't even remember.
If people bitched about the tweet I said, they'd find me defending Crean.
