I’m not salty. I asked a question hoping for an answer and you came back all Chico’s defending Crean and his inability to coach a non D Wade team

Again, he is a good recruiter and a program builder. I give him credit for that

Also it’s kind of ridiculous to call him a bad coach but a good program builder. He can hand out donuts in the morning to kids waiting in line and do marketing until he’s blue in the face, but he still has to put a winner on the floor for program growth.

Dominic James is a stud and deserves whatever awards MU gives him.  Crean is a tool as a human, but was hired to do a job and did that job very well.  I don't think he has ever said a bad thing about MU publicly, so people need to get over whatever lingering butt-hurt they have and thank him for a job well done.

So character no matta?

Actually, as much as we love Al, he was no saint either.  However, he was not a tool.  Far from it.

Maybe the tanned one has repented.

I get it, you like the guy. Cool

I asked the question to a Kansas friend and he said Self has 4 too.

So maybe Roy?

Al was far from a saint.  He was a lovable rouge, which Crean could never pull off because he is too plastic.  This is a basketball honor, and Crean's character flaws are nowhere near disqualifying of the award being given.

I was pleasantly surprised, no booing for TC at halftime. Got a standing...well not ovation, but most of those in their seats stood and clapped. James got a little more love

Figured the meat eaters stayed at home in protest.

They planned on storming the M Club to overturn the induction, but the snow held them up.

The lineup on the floor at this time:
James
Matthews
McNeal
Hayward
Butler

My favorite MU team. Dom’s injury haunts me to this day.

My mother-in-law is unfortunately in decline and frequently repeats the same thing again and again because she doesn't remember saying it 5 minutes earlier.

I see.  You would rather have non-quitters like Dukiet, Deane, or Wojo.
