Could be false news but was told Mick Cronin is the leader in the clubhouse for the Indiana job

I hope to god not. I know there's a place, I'm assuming peegs, that's been suggesting and pushing it. He has a 16mil buyout, 10mil after April 1st. I just don't see IU paying that for him. I don't like the guy, would rather take a flyer on a Brad Brownell type.

outscored in the 2nd half by 17 not a good look

Michigan has been flirting with fire for a while. They won 6 straight games by 4 points or less, which is tied for the longest streak in history. And their 9 conference wins by 5 or less is the most by a D1 team in 40 years.

They are 6-2 in their last 8 games with a -19 scoring differential. That's wild.

Cronin is just a weird vibe.

For May fans the price just went up $2MM, but he has a great gig in AA, why jump into the fishbowl?

Didn't Bobby Knight give off a weird vibe?

I don't get the Cronin stuff just don't like him and don't think it's a good fit. He'd be an upgrade but there's not enough to justify the buyout. If May wants to and IU wants him the buyout isn't an issue, coaches take extensions and then take a new job all the time so that's a nonissue to me.

Two different vibes. Cronin is more of a Tom Crean weird vibe.

@Jaycg15 would be having a field day with this…

Bring back Crean!

IMO May used this to get a raise as weill Brownell and perhaps others.

May has a great gig. Distrant second to FB in terms of pressure. Hero if he wins, employed if he loses.

Probably I just don't think the extension means anything if he wants to come. I don't know if he does or not and won't even entertain the idea that I do just don't see the new contract as much of a hurdle if they're actually fvcking considering paying 10mil for Mick fvxkinglepraconlookingmidgetassss Cronin.

Impressive choke by the Badgers, we got OT in Madison somehow

Oh, I agree with that...his new contract is likely meaningless unless there is an IU kicker in there. So no one is off the table at this point.

Oregon picks up their 9th quad 1 win at Wisconsin. Ducks have won 4 in a row after losing 5 in a row.

Welcome to the Oregon Duck Basketball experience.

Some reasonably priced tix hitting the secondary today. $125 in the balcony and up high main. Under $400 for good seats. Sold out as all games are but the secondary demand is soft for a key league game.

Epic collapse by Wiscy, no championship for them or Purdue

Told you we weren’t going 5-0. 😂

Shame.

3-peat would’ve been nice but let’s start a new streak next year.

 

[snowsquirrel11]

Shame.

Or we could have a fun multi-way tie with 5 loss teams 😉

Anything is possible, and there are a lot of games to play.

True but I don’t see us winning out.
