Crean's onto someone...

[77ncaachamps]

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.

[Dawson Rental]

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.

[Sir Lawrence]

That's fantastic.  I check the pseudo account periodically, but haven't in some time.  Way to go Z man!

[Lennys Tap]

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.

[pbiflyer]

Thankfully, our coach has more to do after a game than tweet.

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

This is fantastic!

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.'

[reinko]

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.

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).

[PuertoRicanNightmare]

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...

[ChicosBailBonds]

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

I'm willing to kick in for a "F*ckin'" banner to hang in the Al.
