It's Indiana, It's Indiana
Former HC Tom Crean left Marquette for Indiana on April 1st 2008 under less than chivalrous circumstances.  In his first interview afterwards, Crean was asked why the move, the response, "It's Indiana, it's Indiana."  And a meme was born.  I4 is the short form and is sometimes used as shorthand for Tom Crean

Creaned/Buzzcut/Boned
This is a mean that has existed for a while, crossed over from dirty badger boards, and has transcended coaches, both at MU and Wisconsin.  Essentially a derogatory term for speculation that a player was asked to leave a program to make room for better talent.  First coined by Becky boards to describe players leaving under Crean, it was then transferred to Buzz.  It became BOned once Wisconsin had a little hedge trimming of their own.

I4 is for the ages. Come on, I4!

I did not expect this one to be close

I4 may pass with the generations, especially with Buzz's tenure.

But for those who truly know, I4 started (and remains) as strong emotional memory in many an MU fan's mind.

"Crean and Treason"

I can't believe I4 lost this one.

I think this may be the biggest cinderella of the tournament.

Yep.  Feels like I just watched a George Mason game....

Interesting for two reasons:
-They are contemporaries
-I would have thought the Crean hate would have carried I4 far.
