BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Tom Crean said his decision to leave Marquette for Indiana was simple.”It’s Indiana basketball,” the Hoosiers’ new coach said Tuesday night in an interview with WTHR (Channel 13), The Indianapolis Star’s news-gathering partner. “I understand what this is all about. . . . Coach (Bob) Knight made this an absolute destination.”
An IU official said the decision Tuesday to hire Crean put the program on the “road to recovery.”
