By Zachary Osterman · Sunday, April 5,2009 11:41 p.m.

Today is Tom Crean’s 370th day on the job as IU men’s basketball coach, which isn’t all that long – unless you consider the tenures of his immediate predecessors. Speaking by phone Thursday, the first-year coach reflected on his first full season in Bloomington, one that was perhaps more important for what it wasn’t – full of controversy – than what it was.

Predictable tournament might have unpredictable ending

By Geoffrey Miller · Friday, April 3,2009 12:18 a.m.

Who’s the favorite to win this weekend’s Final Four? Well, you might have better luck throwing four eggs in a basket, drawing one and declaring that team the winner, because frankly, the 2009 edition of the NCAA men’s basketball championship is up for grabs.

By Greg Rosenstein · Thursday, April 2,2009 12:20 a.m.

By Jordan Cohen · Thursday, April 2,2009 12:18 a.m.

Christian Watford looks like a basketball player. He’s 6-foot-8, weighs 215 pounds and some say he resembles a young Tracy McGrady.
