Makes me think Hill is more likely to follow both he and Buzz there. Oh well...

My favorite quote from gobblercountry.com about Buzz

"Some of the early copy on Buzz is that he flouts the rules a bit, and might examine the gray areas more than most."

I wondered about that too, kind of weird to say your brand new coach might not "exactly" play by the rules.

Don't give a chit. Thought he's overrated as a recruiter anyway.

Just my opinion I suppose, but I thought Hill's comments on his LOI release were telling of Chew's value as a recruiter. "..the relationship me and coach Buzz an coach Chew had."  Would have been nice to have him at MU.

But...In Wojo I Trust. (slaps floor)

[GoldenWarrior11]

What about Brad Autry?  He sign on yet?

Every board has a Chicos - gobbler country is no exception.

Maybe it actually was chicos

That's no secret. He knows the rules inside and out, and plays very close to the line.

Enjoy living in Blacksburg. Better him than me.

Did Chew have to deliver Hill to get the VT job?  Probably not, but speculation can be fun.

Very possible. The very fact that he's lurking (and most likely posting) on something called "Gobbler Country" is creepy.

Vermont?

[wheresthecake?]

Definitely not a coincidence that Chew was "unattached" until Hill received his release.  College athletics is a dirty dirty game.  Everyone bends the rules, it just sucks when your program gets burned by the loopholes.

No this was actually announced yesterday afternoon. Which means that he probably signed some paper work and then called up Ahmed to tell him he decided to take a demotion and join Buzz at VA Tech. Then Ahmed released his explanation which he actually typed up a week ago on April 10th.

College sports is like sausage. You don't want to look inside either one.

Dear Chewbacca, Basketball Mercenary:

Hardly knew ya. Won't miss ya. Enjoy greater metropolitan Bumblefulck.

Love, Warrior Nation.

Mini-Buzz is probably recruiting Pierce with fewer restrictions.  Should be following his maker soon.

I'm a little surprised by this--didn't think that VT would be able to pay the $ to bring Chew over as well.  I'm a little surprised that he would take less money just to stay with Buzz.

He was part of the problem too....because he participated and co-signed the negativity of Bret actions. Proof is in him following Butters to VT.

[Litehouse]

Less money than what?  What other offers did he have?  He certainly wasn't getting his same salary here.

My wife's gram made sausage so I actually saw what she threw into her concoctions. And despite knowing the vile bits that go into it I still love a hand forged brat. Germans make great sausage but they also love invading other people so there is that.

[MattyWarrior]

Maybe Buzzy will get by with less assistants, Chewy and that other guy that took the fall for him. Buzz can sell his mansion
in the Quon and live on a turkey farm.

Did they post the right profile pic for Chew?

I haven't posted a thing to that site.  I still get alerts every day on Buzz Williams sent to my email address.  I haven't turned them off yet.

Maybe some of you guys should read about Buzz on a bunch of other message boards before you come blaming me.  I've said Buzz is squirmy, far different commentary has been made about him on various other boards like Wisconsin, DePaul, some Big East sites and even some forums where he used to work.  By long time posters.  But put your tinfoil on if you wish, not coming from sugarpie.  That being said, there's reasons why Buzz wasn't kept around, perhaps the administration wasn't thrilled with how close to the line things were pushed.

So Russian kolbasa must be equally tasty?

GREAT! NEVER DID ANYTHING IN CHICAGO RECRUITING FOR US. WAS SUPPOSE TO BE THE MAN

[Groin_pull]

For all the coin Chew was pulling in from MU, I'm not sure what he did to earn it.

Must have missed that long line of Chicago studs making their way to MU.

You promised more to come soon regarding Buzz's departure or dismissal. When? Hope you've got more than junk from loony fan forums at schools he used to beat or from disgruntled butt hurt fans where he used to coach. I can find much, much, much more negative stuff on your boy TC on fan forums/the internet than you'll ever find on Buzz. I don't bring it up here because I'm not a hypocrite. You, however, who dismiss fan forum negative nonsense on Crean while saying the same sort of BS about Buzz actually is worthwhile to be considered are the ultimate hypocrite. Nothing new there.

The big Question? Is Brad gonna eat the sausage this week? My Busha made the best kielbasa on Becher street.

I actually said Gram but they said Oma. There is a difference between the Scots and the Germans. Our food is better: Haggis.
