Huskerpapa Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 Creaning...it is a newer term...you can read about it in this article. I also found this tidbit interesting: Crean's unnecessarily combative persona doesn't sit well with IU fans either. It's one thing to be fiery and even disrespectful of other coaches — Bob Knight, you know? — but not if your team is struggling to reach the NCAA Tournament. Fans of any school, IU or otherwise, tolerate more when they win, but Crean isn't winning enough for fans to accept his occasional sideline oafishness (spats with Jeff Meyer and Tim Miles, and an unreported incident with New Orleans' Mark Slessinger earlier this season when Crean yelled at the UNO coach and was scolded by a referee). Enjoy. http://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2015/03/04/doyel-tom-creans-fate-longer-tom-creans-hands/24370679/ basketballjones 1 Quote
AuroranHusker Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 Tom ought to have been Creaned by both Miles & the N.O. coach. Red Don and colhusker 2 Quote
hhcmatt Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 Creaning...it is a newer term Actually I've brought up "Creaning" in my write-ups before. One of the best descriptors for Crean is "notorious" Red Don 1 Quote

ladyhusker Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 I'm still sad that there's a band called the Butthole Surfers. If only that name had been Creaned early on. Quote

hhcmatt Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 Creaning: the Peliniing of basketball. Creaning is more about overrecruiting than it is boorishness. Quote
Huskerone Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 Is Crean in trouble? Only if Tim Miles and him go head to head in old school American Gladiator jousting! (80's TV reference, might be lost on the younger generation). Silverbacked1 and AuroranHusker 2 Quote
