Tom has a rare disease that causes his body to evacuate itself like he died as soon as the final horn sounds a loss. The other Big Ten coaches are aware of this. So you see the "blow bys" are a courtesy to them. You do not want to be anywhere near Crean for more than a second before he's showered after a loss.

He spent nearly his entire salary on suits his first two seasons.

You can apologize anytime you like.

I love you, Razor. Almost as much as my Real Doll.

I can only imagine the clean-up required after such an incident, helps explain why it takes him so long to make it out for the post-game interviews...

I didn't know this was a thing. Maybe we can have a coach handshake timer like the Home run trot timers, or a coach to press conference timer. I'd love to know Crean's PTARC(Press Conference Time ABove Replacement Coach) before I give it serious consideration though.

On a side note.....Cal is getting used to such post game interviews. Losing sucks.

I think we all know just how much I love Indiana.

I will, however, be holding my nose while rooting for you guys if you're playing either DOOK or UL for the Championship in April.

I heard that Painter gathered his team before the game and said "bring me my brown pants."

Re: Indiana Basketball 2011-2012 Part II

Why was Sheehey acting like a tool in the 2nd half? Obviously it was a blowout, but is there some background info I'm missing?

He was getting some guff from the student section. I'm not sure if that was before or after he became (more) demonstrative. He seems to be the "annoying" player who everyone else's fan base hates (and his own fan base loves.)

Apparently even the referees were telling him to tone it down a little though.

Re: Indiana Basketball 2011-2012 Part II

Man I'm nervous/excited/anxious for tomorrow's tilt with Michigan.

It's a team I actually feel IU matches up well with. The teams like tOSU will give IU more problems imo. But with that said, I realize that my predictive powers are terrible and Michigan is really good offensively.

Well, I'm not really an Indiana fan, but tonight, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

The way its looking, the B1G is going to come down to whichever of the OSU, MSU, Michigan, and IU breaks. So far each team has held their home court against each other. IU got a massive break in losing to Wisconsin at home but not having to go up to Madison to play them.

I think MSU and OSU are similar while IU and UM are similar. MSU and OSU guard and like to make the other team guard on defense. IU and UM like to get into track meets. With around 9 B1G games left, the first of the big four to beat the other away has the upper hand in the league.
