Crean needs friends.....

Needs a perfect fit.....Because he is far from perfect.....

Crean needs a program that needs him as much.....

DePaul and Crean would be a good fit......But neither would go there.....

I don’t want to rehash those accusations against Buzz but they’re serious and I’ve never seen proof. In general I sense the university needs to change how it protects the young women who go there.

Buzz himself I credit for giving us some real highlights and success that many other programs rarely see. With hindsight though it’s pretty obvious that he isn’t the stable personality to lead MU b-ball for a decade or more.

Wojo, in comparison does seem to be that guy. My only misgiving is when K leaves, who will they pick among the stable of acolytes to replace?? Wojo makes his case very year ( not consciously but with success).

Wojo would need some serious post season success to get himself that Duke job when K is done.  They will have to be EXTREMELY careful with their next hire, or they may fall into irrelevance quickly.  May not even come down to hiring a "Duke guy" when all is said and done.

MU's currently slide into essentially irrelevancy, and the reason the drop was so sudden and so far was NOT Buzz. Many of you will blame him, but the problem was hiring Larry Williams and Fr. Pilarsz. Two of the worst decisions the University has ever made. I hope whoever was the "point man" behind those hires(I know entire BOT voted in favor) has trouble sleeping at night seeing  how those bad decisions have really hurt the BB program.

Those two never get hired, Buzz may still be here. That's where the entire problem was..NOT Buzz.

I am sure they sleep just fine, and not simply because the basketball team is not the BOT's first priority, and in the long run it worked out for the best.  We would have never gotten Lovell, or possibly even Scholl, when those positions first opened up because the timing wasn't right.
Have some patience, FFS.

Eventually, everyone found the right water level based on their abilities:

Pilarz: Univ of Scranton President
Williams: Akron Zips AD

A few growing pains for everyone, but the current leadership at MU is trustworthy and solid.

Glad to see Buzz found a landing spot, but weird to think of him with a desk job as an AD.

Hahaha. So to summarize:

1) a vague story about talking to someone "high up"
2) a claim that Wojo is the savior and a Crean handjob to boot
3) Buzz is bad
4) A claimed "long time poster" that specifically isn't Chicos, sweartogod (but doesn't say who he is, even though we'd all recognize the long-time poster's name if he gave it)

No way this convo happened and we've seen this movie before. Hi Cheeks!

Yep yep!

Unless this poster is Roy Moore or Harvey Weinstein - or chicos or Ners - there is absolutely no reason to hide his or her former identity.

I'll believe this isn't chicos when he/she proves he/she isn't chicos.

I believe that it isn't Chicos simply because Chicos would never miss an opportunity to name-drop.

Yup, not narcissistic enough.   Or condescending.

Not sure why the OP would choose not to identify himself if the only reason he has a new username is that he couldn't remember his password.

MU is the high water mark for these ex-coaches. Surprise.

Buzz declining his 100 Year invite was his own choice. Buzz then having his own MU reunion was his bi-polarness.

Crean finding his humility appears to be genuine. Let’s hope it sticks. MU looks to be his only welcoming island.

Not convinced it's keefe. Not his style of writing, and not nearly pompous enough.

I don't understand this site sometimes.  If you were a longtime poster who had to change his/her name, why wouldn't you just say what your former name was?  I don't get the secret.

Bravo.. I read the opening post and thought "Why is this guy hiding who he is?" and "What's his agenda?" I see you had the same thought.

When my former account - brandx - got screwed up and I wasn't able to log on anymore, I created a new account and let everyone know who I was so there was no option for deception or dishonesty.

This poster needs to do the same to have any credibility. Deception = lying.

Count on scoop to read into s***.  Never said I was hiding my previous name.  Just gave a brief explanation as to why I only have one post.

Previous name is JD.

Thanks topper for confirming.

I proofread a lot of stuff for a living.  I can pick out the author pretty much instantly.

I never thought this guy was Chicos.  "TYME Machine"?  I'm pretty sure he is.

Let's see: A hated victim, a mysterious witness, a slew of antagonists, a protagonist, a love triangle, and a cyber undercover detective revealing the secrets of the plot. Sounds like "Murder on the Maui Express".

"JD", where have I seen those initials before? Do you have a Fred on speed dial?

(Just joshing ya Pilot, appreciate the new info, but the JD reference isn't going to help your case as those are the Cheeks One's)

My apologies. Having said that ... a lot of silliness - including from me - could have been avoided if you had just told us that.

I was a little confused because I knew TYME was chicos, and that change was just made a few days ago. I was thinking ... "wow, chicos got banned again fast this time!"

Glad to read your post, JD. I thought it was interesting.
