    I can agree with that. It's not a giant one but it is definitely a step up. I wouldn't blame Miller for staying put though.

    BTW, my prediction for the Marquette job: Tod Kowalczyk.

    In other IU news, Eli Holman said he will make a decision on his future at Indiana by next Wednesday. Jamarcus Ellis wants to be on the team. No word from Bassett yet. It will be interesting how Crean handles these two.

    Wonder if Crean will retain Dakich? If so, it'd be hard to bring those two back.

    Good point. I don't think either will want to come back if Dakich is retained.

    “I never had plans to leave,” Ellis said. “It was just – Dakich being the head coach – we didn’t see eye-to-eye on things, so I thought the best thing for me was to part ways and get my academics right.

    “I never left the team, I quit,” he added. “So there really wasn’t that we got kicked off, we quit. I’m looking forward to still being a Hoosier. I never had intentions on leaving – that wasn’t even an option.”

    Thomas agreed, also saying Ellis and Bassett quit the team instead of Dakich telling them to leave.

    “They went with what they believed in,” Thomas said. “They thought something wasn’t right, so they stood up for themselves. They came to me before that and wanted something to change.”

    I can't imagine that happening.

    "I never left the team, I quit..."

    What the hell does that mean?

    Sound like a couple of young punks to me.

    It was his first year this time around. He was there as an assistant under Knight years ago.

    Ohhhhh, okay, I was thinking that he had been at IU for like 25 straight years or something.

    He was the head coach at Bowling Green for a few years. Not particularly successful, either.

    Of course, nobody has been at BG.

    He was the head coach at Bowling Green for 10 years. He returned to IU as the Director of Basketball Operations this past season. He was made an assistant for Kelvin once Rob Senderoff resigned.

    He had a winning record there. Not many have been able to do that.

    Yeah it will be interesting to see what Crean does with those two...

    I don't care if you "don't see eye to eye with him" or not, you still respect your coach.
