Yes, I think so. Crean gets a bad rap mostly because of internet trolls and because of Indiana's large and intolerant fan base. I've even seen Indiana fans (who appeared to be sweater vest types or boosters) yelling directly at Crean that he literally "ruined the program," which is a bit over the top. I mean, we're not looking at JOB here. He had to deal with a lot of background noise and distractions (especially in recent years), which almost certainly affected his team's performance. Yes, that's part of every major program, but much less so at UD, which could be the perfect antidote for Tom Crean.
