Crean calling out Seth Davis

[JD]

Sorry if this was already posted, however I found it hilarious Crean said after stamping their ticket to the S16, "Thanks Seth Davis for the ammo!"

Gotta love it.

No matter how big of a douche people think Crean is, I'm glad he has the nuts/audacity to call him out.

The "Nuts" he showed were as he was walking away from the camera during an interview where he talked about team prayer and using all of God's gifts.  You don't tell America how religious you are and then call out Steve Smith and Seth Davis.

Why not?  Ever hear of righteous indignation?

Nuts? Audacity? How about ridiculous? He was really offended that an analysts who's job it is to make such predictions picked against his team? What an idiot. Oh BTW, seems Seth Davis was pretty much on the money, as Indiana won that game by the skin of their teeth. I am so glad that guy is gone.

Pretty sure if Marquette was picked against and Buzz called out Davis we would all be cheering. I understand people hate Crean, but come on.

It was a joke. There was no offense taken.

He is very friendly with Seth Davis and Davis even mentioned on Twitter that Crean was going to call him out if Indiana ended up winning the game. Davis joked that's why he picked VCU.

So what? He's still a douche!

That's fine...and I was surprised that he would do it b/c among other things Seth had MU in the Final Four in Jan of either 2006 or '07 so he's said nice things about TC before.  How TC did it made it seem like it was more adversarial than too good buddies taking shots.  Then again, nothing TC does appears to be real comfortable.

It was a quick quip at the end of the game teasing Seth Davis.

As with most things TC on this board, it's been over-analyzed.

This is the crap that chaps my hide.

Crean leaves MU, a Catholic institution, rarely brings up God in his talks and then lands a job in Indiana at a public institution...and HALLELUJAH...the man is praising the Lord and tweeting about it!

More crap from a man who knows how to pander to his audience.

This shtick will get old quick and people in IU will soon realize they have a wolf in sheep's clothing: he's the great "pretender."

And at the same time buzz is getting attention at MU for his genuine faith and public expression on it.

I4 probably has a JoeBoo-like shrine in his office with his own bobble head.

Actually TC was "all about" the Lord here too.  Used to see him in the Communion line with his bible.  Number of people in our parish who carried a bible up to Communion....1.

It's all for show.

Catholic parish? I've never seen that before in my life. I mean some people bring Missals, but they don't bring them up to Communion...

I'm pretty certain Crean is a strong Catholic that did the God thing often.  This isn't a new revelation.  The man doesn't drink, smoke, been a bible thumper for a long time.  I remember reading a story about him shortly after he was hired about his mother (his father left the family when he was young) and how important God was to his upbringing.  Your hide may be chapped, but you weren't paying attention.

On the Steve Smith & Seth Davis stuff.  Crean coached Smith at Michigan State and they are close.  We can't forget here how often we have been told how tight Crean is with Davis and every other writer who was pimping jobs for Crean.  Now we're supposed to believe that Crean and Davis don't get along?  Coaches use that us against the world crap to motivate their players.  That is all that it is.

It must've been his religion that encouraged him to makes derogatory comments about the "fat wife" of a Memphis fan when he was here. Or swearing at Wisconsin players during the Big Ten tournament.

Really, really perplexed why a purdue fan continues to run to the defense of Indiana's coach. Really perplexed.

It wasn't really a bible... just a hollowed-out book.  What was inside?  Well, my guess is a bottle of coppertone, but everyone is entitled to their opinion.

I remain really perplexed that a Marquette fan would cheer for Wisconsin.  Ever.  Or take Adam Hoge, a Wisconsin graduate's reporting, as any credible either.  When I went to Marquette, we wouldn't allow ourselves to cheer for Wisconsin in basketball, yet you have admitted as such.  Perplexing.  Really perplexed.

Maybe I'll head over to the Illinois board and start defending every single derogatory Bo Ryan comment made.

If you were an Illinois alumnus and Bo Ryan had taken Illinois to the Final Four for the first time in 30 years, it would made sense to me.  Otherwise, your analogy falls short.  Try again.
