I prefer to look at it as the guy who ends up coaching Dayton, gets the ultimate prize. If it takes getting fired at Indiana to get you to Dayton, that's not so bad, right? So why not hire Crean to take us on a magical run to the final four as he did with Marquette, thereby making Indiana so jealous that they fire Archie and re-hire Crean. When that happens, we can get Archie back for at least a few years until it's time to trade back for Crean. Crean's 51 now so this can't go on forever, but 15 years or so of trading back and forth with Indiana might be enough to net us a championship. Worth a shot, right?
