slu72 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Well deserved. Good read. The more I read about JC and the answers he gives, the more I admire and like the guy. I don't know about his recruiting abilities, but if he stay, his AC's are going to have a nice opening line for recruits, "you'll be playing and learning under the national coach of the year." There aren't a lot of guys that can say that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Metzinger Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 You have to think this is just great for recruiting! Any player in the country that doesn't want to play for a winning program and a program that fosters character and toughness and togetherness can suck the fattest of ***** just go to Duke for all I care. Congrats, Coach Crews! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmbilliken Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Can we keep him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbizzle09 Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Turned out to be a nice day for Crews. A-10 and Sporting News COY. Somehow, I don't think this is going to be the last of the good news for Crews over the next few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats, Coach Crews! We're still not going to get the Duke, NC, UK, KU type recruits but we'll sure take the 4 stars who may have questions about how much they're gonna play at those places. Maybe even keep an Otto Porter type or 2 at home. You never know how this kind of stuff will resonate with a kid who has stars in his eyes, but it will sure help with the parents.

jimbofive Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Jim Crews: Hi. I'm Jim Crews. I started as a senior for the Indiana Hoosiers, the most famous basketball team ever, when they had the last undefeated season in NCAA basketball almost 40 years ago. I was an assistant to Bob Knight and Rick Majerus. Have you heard of them? When Rick Majerus died, God bless his soul, I took his team to another national championship and was named the coach of the year by gotdamn everybody. I demand that my players play stifling, hard-nosed defense and play unselfishly on the offensive end, but I like them to get out and run, and take charge when they need to. If what you do works, I'm not going to change anything. If it doesn't, maybe we'll try it my way. What do you say? Want to win championships? Want to be a Billiken? Jabari Skywalker (6-star recruit): Yes I do. Do you have a pen? What the fuok is a Billiken? And mom... the meatloaf! FUOK! Fiction or non-fiction???

Schasz Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I'll second the congrats for Coach Crews. I think that he is very deserving, and it won't make Chris May's job any easier once our season is over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
almaman Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 one red herring that's been under my skin about yes or no with keeping JC is the "I hate recruiting" quote. Steer me away from anybody that would say I like recruiting. It's just like fund raising in politics. No one worth voting for has ever said anything like "my favorite part of politics is fund raising". No one would prefer sitting in on countless high school games, going to recruits houses et al rather than be chillin' at the crib. It all sucks and I applaud him for saying the truth if that is indeed a valid quote. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
