The I4 boards are insane after I4 lost to Iowa tonight. They may not be seeing the big picture but TC is not a fan favorite right now. I was PO'd at TC when he left but I mellowed with time. After Buzz left, I felt better about TC--never said anything bad about MU, just praised I4--though he never thanked the fans. So I actually feel bad for TC and his family right now. Has to be tough for them. He is either gone this year or has a ton of pressure to win big next year.

Definitely interesting. If they beat MSU, are they on the bubble? I've also become more sympathetic to Crean over time. But he did sign up for this & is getting paid handsomely. I have no doubt Crean will do extremely well no matter what happens to him.

And to think they were thrilled with him only 5 weeks ago when they were ranked.

I had just about assumed that Indiana was in the field, but this rough finish is doing them no favors. They are just 4-8 in road and neutral games, and have a losing record (8-10) against RPI top 100 teams. I think they are still in if the tournament started today, and probably above the play-in games, but I would strongly recommend them to beat Michigan State on Saturday. If they lose their next two, the NIT is suddenly in the picture. If I were Crean's agent, I would be scoping the field closely and hoping to find a soft landing him for this offseason (better to move semi-voluntary then to be involuntarily ousted).

I never got the sense they were thrilled with him. Just less enraged.

Why are you guys going to other team message boards and commenting here on a public message board? We have message board rules and police here that don't like this kind of discussion. So knock it off and get back to talking about MU's season only!

Lunardi has them as "Last 4 In" after losing 2 straight to Northwestern and Iowa. Michigan State at home on Saturday, could be another loss. They may be in but will be sweating it out if they lose Saturday and don't win a game or two in the conference tourney. Indiana's only true road wins have been Rutgers, Nebraska and Illinois. Not a strong resume. Originally Posted by MU/Panther
