I'm not sure where we are in our legendary quest to find THE perfect adjective for former Marquette coach Tom Crean; we started with ten adjectives, and now we're down to four, so ... does that make this the quarterfinals? The semifinals? The regional finals?

After last week's voting, "Nepotism-Enabling" was asked to pack its knives and go to hell. Good show, "Nepotism-Enabling"; better luck next time we try something this pointless.

OK, you know the rules -- Survivor-style, we're voting off our LEAST favorite adjective. You've got four choices, so give this one some minimal at least 0.7 seconds of thought.
