March 11, 201313 yr Michigan coach John Beilein was asked about the incident on Monday's Big Ten conference call. "I'm talking about what Michigan does, not commenting on what Tom Crean does," Beilein said. "I will say Michigan's always gonna win with class, lose with class. ... Jeff showed great poise." Very nice and subtle way to jab at Crean not showing class.........I like it.
March 11, 201313 yr What did he say? I am not afraid to admit I am wrong. Still not sure whatever prevoked him to say what he did warranted running him down. I don't know and neither do you, but to judge based on one side is a little silly, right? And of course Beilein is going to back up his assistant. The guy who broke countless NCAA rules blatantly and without recourse must be innocent in the whole thing. B/c he's shown wonderful character throughout his career, right?

We are going with the "I'm rubber and your are glue with two wrongs making a right" defense? Bringing yourself down to that level. If Crean did nothing wrong, why apologize? If anything he should be thanking him for giving him the opportunity to coach at IU.

Except he was cleared of any and all wrong-doing by the NCAA.... Crean has long been known for being a complete tool, this kind of behavior is just par for the course for him. Of course, you being a big IU fan, I'm sure you think he can do no wrong.

What a game if these two meet again. Which is very likely I think.
March 11, 201313 yr Author For those of you that think Coach Crean is a tool. Coach Cal and Coach Crean are great friends. Just saying.
March 11, 201313 yr For those of you that think Coach Crean is a tool. Coach Cal and Coach Crean are great friends. Just saying. Um so?
March 11, 201313 yr Author Um so? Just saying a lot of fans from other teams think Coach Cal is a tool. Why would Coach Cal want to be great friends with somebody that is a "tool". I'm not going to judge Coach Crean based on a couple incidents right after a big ball game. He has apologized for the incident yesterday. I'm sure Indiana fans have seen a lot of great things he has done off the court just like we have seen some of the great things Coach Cal has done off the court.

March 11, 201313 yr Author My worldview is unaltered. :lol2: And I'm sure you feel the same about your coach. :popcorn::sssh::lol2:
March 11, 201313 yr And I'm sure you feel the same about your coach. :popcorn::sssh::lol2:Honestly, I think Cal is a lot of things but I don't think he's a jerk.

Of course, you being a big IU fan, I'm sure you think he can do no wrong. No im sure he can do wrong, and I haven't liked all he's done. But what are your hardfast reasons for him being a "tool"
March 11, 201313 yr No im sure he can do wrong, and I haven't liked all he's done. But what are your hardfast reasons for him being a "tool" I think I listed something concrete.
March 11, 201313 yr No im sure he can do wrong, and I haven't liked all he's done. But what are your hardfast reasons for him being a "tool" This incident, the Sweet 16 rings from last season, the net-cutting after the OSU loss, the Myles injury accusation Ram mentioned, while at Marquette he would hide video cameras in the practice gym and tape opposing teams practices, he married a Harbaugh, etc., etc.
March 11, 201313 yr I think I listed something concrete. I don't know, how many times in games have you seen coaches and players yell out someone is faking an injury the instant it happenes? Seems like it's a fairly common situation. In Creans case it just so happened the player had a serious injury but I don't hold it against him any more than I do the other coaches and players. In this case he certainly looks like a jerk but as someone pointed out, I'd like to know if the other coach said anything that set him off. He obviously can't control his emotions and has knee jerk reactions. Another reason why family get togethers with the Harbaugh family must be real doozies.
