College kids partying ?……………..What a surprise

Sometimes the legal framework/language of a contract takes too long and is unclear about its intent . Thus a MoU is created in simpler terms and faster so parties can move on.

Lets face it we are putting our complete trust in Crean whoever his coaches are, whoever he recruits, whoever he keeps on the team etc.

I keep wondering what everyone's expectations are for him ( not predictions ). I think mine are :

1. NCAA every year but year 1
2. Always lands 3 of Indiana's top 10 players and at least 1 in the top 4
3. Everyone plays 2 years minimum
4. 90% graduate
5. No more than one player kicked off every 3 years

Right before Sherron went to IU my brother and I helped him into this girl's window he was "seeing" She lived on the second floor right above her driveway. he couldn't figure out how to get in so my bro found a chair to put on a car for him to stand on and reach up to pull himself up and in. After we saw he was going to IU we about died laughing. Funny story here lol.
