I'll concede.  I did get triggered.  Due to the Intelligentsia here, all of you included, believing Derrick Wilson wasn't the primary reason we sucked in Buzz's last season, AND that Steve Wojo would bring us to Duke-like levels of success - I did get triggered. 

Idiocy as it relates to MU hoops and common sense does trigger me.  But hey, carry on and stay "woke."  And never stop #resisting.  #disruptwesternprescribednuclearfamily.

Sidenote - Perhaps liberals should temper the #resist mentality - seems the Black men involved in these tragic incidents were heeding the rallying call to #resist.

No personal accountability.  No peace.

There is no way we have two adult male MU fans that use “AF” regularly. None.

Bias - I've got to hand it to you, you win the award for the poster who most consistently misses the mark on Scoop, and that is saying something.

In your bizarro world, somehow you've reached the conclusion that I created that Twitter handle.  Once again, you are wrong. 

And I write this to you, without bias, despite thinking you are Scoop's biggest tool, and that too is saying something.

Is there a handy Scoop user name etymology anywhere?

Ners ---> Elon Musk
? (Chicos?) ---> Pace Arrow
? (Heisey's burner account?)---> Trump Loves Big East

I may actually even be forgetting a name in there.

Heard he held out until now hoping for the call, but finally had to go with his second option.

Heard he told his agent that he would only take a job within 2hrs drive in case the call comes later

It was always a stupid premise.

Why do you have such low expectations for Marquette basketball? Why are you okay with mediocrity?

No kidding.
Maybe Billy was looking for a $3 million pay cut to coach at a lower level. Maybe he misses spending his spring and summer on the AAU circuit chasing after teenagers and sucking up to street agents. Maybe he misses gland-handing self-important boosters.
How do you know unless you call?

Maybe he misses not dealing with insanely overinflated egos of superstars and rookies. Maybe he misses dealing with crappy GMs and managers deciding who he drafts. Maybe he misses crowds that are actually enthusiastic and not the epitome of fair weather.

Again I said it was highly unlikely, but I'd rather reach out and get rejected than assume nobody wants to be with me.

Well, he just took another NBA job, so I think we know the answer.

Yes we do now, this response is the equivalent of never raising in poker. Hindsight's always 20/20 but in foresight I'd take a chance 100% of the time even if I end up with egg on my face.

Hindsight was never needed. We always knew the answer.

Or do we? Fire the admin, replace the entire BOT. Donovan wanted in. We just never called.

Lotsa rumors that Pop will leave San Antonio.

Shame on MU if we don't call him.

Not a chance. You look foolish and out of touch and just pulled the rug out from under your basketball coach.
