Until they had their falling out and, effectively, stopped speaking to one another. That is an occupational hazard of hiring someone to criticize the head coach.

Yeah, I seem to remember some weird story about how Wainwright told Todd Mayo to tell Buzz to give him more playing time.  I wasn't sure if that was an oddity, or if that lack of communication between players and the head coach is typical at big time programs.

I agree with you, and hairy too.

But if the honchos were happy with him going into this season - something many (most?) Scoopers were not - then to them it probably is one horrific season. During COVID. With injuries. Etc etc etc.

Serious question...Do you know the admin was “happy” with Wojo after the last two years? I’ve read others say the admin is thrilled with Wojo’s clean program, etc. are you just assuming this because the admin hasn’t said anything negative or do you know them to be thrilled with Wojo going into this season just because he hasn’t been fired.

I have no knowledge whether they were happy with him or not. Usually, though, there are leaks, and I think some Scoopers who do claim to have knowledge would have heard if they were disappointed, especially to the point where he was on the hot seat.

We've really spent two pages on Bruce Weber as an assistant? (worse yet I've read all the posts.)  I just started a thread on potential candidates for 2022-23 video coordinator.

Let's just say for fun that Kentucky fired Cal, even with the budget constraints would you want MU to try to sell their soul for him?

Will never ever ever happen.
But are you kidding me?  We'd crawl through broken glass to bring Cal to Marquette.

Ok, If Wojo is not the guy, and money is the biggest issue for not firing him, then keep Wojo as a lame duck coach for a year and then fire him. Paying more money for an assistant coach to patch up Wojos shortcomings doesn’t save money either.   The only reason to bring in someone like Weber would be because you think Wojo can’t get the job done. If you think that, then the answer is to fire Wojo.
actually, communicating to Wojo he needs to bring in an experienced asst to help HIM game coach might be the ticket to get Wojo to bail. Financial issue/buy out solved!! And to think FluffyB once called me a moron 😂

Hire a middling low major coach for a single year of a one and done? Hard pass.

Obviously Bama knew the moderators were going to offer Oats a 50% share in our subscription fees and the Tide had to up the ante

Perhaps Oats pulled a Buzz and showed his bosses the internet reports of other schools ready to offer big bucks and they ponied up.

Which one of you is really Nate Oats’ agent?

I'm quite sure it's a joke, but on the smallest chance that it's not that'd be awesome.
