Crean The Right Move

April 2nd, 2008 | Posted in Uncategorized

TMC Podcast - Sunday, March 30

Cast: Galen Clavio, Scott Caulfield

Topic: IU basketball coaching search-o-rama. Scott and I break down the Tony Bennett situation, talk some Mike Montgomery, some Lon Kruger, and go through a bunch of other names (both realistic and unrealistic), before deciding that no one has a damn clue what’s going on with this situation.

And Kelvin Sampson Has Broken My Heart.

Remember “The Simpsons” episode where Ralph gave Lisa the Valentine, Lisa told Ralph she didn’t “like, like him” and later Bart showed Lisa in slow motion where you could see Wiggum’s heart breaking frame by frame? This was how I felt yesterday when Indiana University released the major infractions they received [...]

An open letter to college coaches-

I understand that coaching can be a brutal profession, but as Gregg Easterbrook pointed out, it can also be done by volunteers (unlike surgeons). The only reason that your families collapse, your health fades and you sleep [...]

November 27th, 2007 | Posted in Uncategorized

This is all speculation, trust me on that. Yesterday Nebraska AD Tom Osbourne flew on a chartered plane to Baton Rouge, LA apparently to interview LSU defensive coordinator Bo Pellini.
