I thought Crean never considered leaving...?

Crean caught lightening in a bottle with Wade.  No one knew what type of a player he was going to develop into when he was at Richards.  Decent D1 prospect - YES, Superstar - NO.

I know that the resident apologist will disagree, but I believe that the best way to evaluate Crean are the post-Wade years.  He had a fantastic platform to recruit from (a final four) and a solid group of players to build upon.  Bottom line is that he was OK.  Lousy in the post-season but did well in a tough BE. 

Let's hope Buzz outperforms his predecessor!
Totally agree - nice benchmarks to build on
You heard it here first. Davante Gardner will be a Beast this year.

Unfortunately this string has devolved into a Crean versus Thompson string or a Crean really did agodd job string. 

Unfortunately none of these address my origingal point.  My point was Crean reminded everyone more than we cared to hear it ( becuase we knew he was lying) that he had no interest in any other jobs and that he never considered being anywhere else.  Even after he left he said he never considered any other job until march 31st and that was part of the reason he was so inconsiderate to his players and emplyers. 
My point was based on Buckleys staements that based on that crean was truly the liar many of us had him for in many areas but also in this area in particular

Could you please cite one occasion in which Crean said he would never consider being anywhere else?

please the guy said it all the time.

Then is should be a snap to find one example.

What he actually said was coach speak items like "I'm happy to be here".  "I have a great job" Etc, etc  He never said he was going to be at MU forever or wouldn't entertain other jobs....he usually played it coy and said he wouldn't comment on other jobs and was happy at MU. 

"The bottom line is I've got a great job and I'll keep that usual stance of not commenting on other jobs, no matter what's reported or what's said," Crean said.

If you can provide something that said he would be at MU until he retired, produce it.


PS  You still live in Indiana Hayward?  If so, how's all the 24/7 Crean love going for you?   ;)

Dude, you sound like an ex-GF who goes on and on about her ex-BF.

He's gone.

Don't worry about him.

Don't take pleasure in his failures, don't let envy or jealousy consume you when he succeeds.

Just move on and leave him alone.

Trust me, the world is big enough for both you and Tom Crean to exist peacefully.

MR.HAYWARD

Dont get me wrong I am glad the guy is gone and am more than over it, i was over it the day it happen ...glad the day it happened.  I was laso happy with the buzz hiring.  My hope was for Sean miller and my #2 was buzz.  So i am all good with it.  I just find it funny that now buckley and Crean are opening up to the hoosier faithfula about how they frequently discussed landing at a place like Indiana. 
Personally i grew up an Indidan fan and they were always my second favorite team.  i now wish Iu to go 0 for every season until he gets fired.  i also will for the first time in my life root for UWisconsin at lest 1 time a year.

I guess I was wrong.

You're totally over it.

Don't post about Crean anymore. Seriously. Leave it alone.
