INDIANAPOLIS (AP)âTom Crean is getting ready for a restart at Indiana.
After a bumpy first month as the Hoosiers coach, Crean spent Thursday riding around the Indianapolis Motor Speedway oval with three-time winner Johnny Rutherford, hoping the changes at Indiana will go as smoothly and quickly as the laps.
Crean acknowledged the programâs image had been damaged by recent allegations of recruiting violations, academic troubles and player dismissals before looking ahead.
âItâs important to move on,â he said. âThatâs what we try to do as coaches, get through these situations with the hearing, the APR (academic progress report) and those kinds of things.â
With so many lingering reminders, switching gears wonât be easy for the Hoosiers.
