Scholarship table
I had 4th row seats today (sick brag) and with about 7 min left in 2nd half I heard a fan get vocal about his displeasure with Wojo.I have not been happy with his results and I express my displeasure here and elsewhere. However, this guy was belligerent and personal. He was ultimately removed as the fans around him got Security. I have it on good authority this guy popped off to Markus’ family.In short that is some BS. I was bummed by the results. However SHU is really, really talented. They were better. Markus’ teammates showed up a little too late. Not a Pro-Jo but we have to keep our crap together in Public.
This is the incident TAMU was referring to. What a unnatural carnal knowledgeing absolute moron. What was he saying to Howard’s family, and why?
Something to the effect “I have given more to this University than you ever will!” I did not hear that just the rant.
Keefe was at the game?
Dave Hauser still has tickets?
When I saw Wojo walk briskly off the court after the speeches, he seemed a little more pissed than usual after a loss.I believe Wojo can take the boos.I don’t think Wojo can handle people/fans attacking either his players or their families...and IMHO, this was the last straw. He's not staying at a place that events like this happen. He’s disgusted by it, and since he couldn’t control it he feels he let the Howards down. Unfortunately, other families were close by as well.

Unfortunately, other families were close by as well.Even prior to this happening yesterday, I have heard an interview with Stan this week, Watching the game when I got home we saw Stan take over the huddle. Just a guess at this point, but I see Wojo leaving and setting Stan up for the job. Killings stays on under Stan to save Oso and Lewis. Dawson..IDK.Just a hunch. But that seemed too much for Wojo to take, especially on such a special day for the family.
I thought it was very telling that Wojo got a loud cheer during Markus’ speech. Those who are willing to support the coach also were there to support the players despite a tough day. Those who choose to boo couldn’t wait to get out of there. Those who think it’s soft to be affected by boos are living in a fantasy world. We all would be. It’s not that you’re packing up and leaving it, but you’re willing to listen when you don’t feel wanted...just like any job. It probably isn’t a coincidence that any recent coach to get to the sweet sixteen has chosen greener pastures.
And other than being hired to bring Howard from ASU, Saint Stan has done what to prove he’s ready for a high major head coaching job?
See Xavier. Sean Miller. Chris Mack. Travis Steele. Mullin at STJ. Assistant coaches have been promoted for many coaching cycles. Same can be said for Crean and Buzz(not including 1 year as HC at UNO).What did Buzz prove to get promoted to a high major? Plenty of assistant coaches get high major coaching jobs. Stan is very well connected to the west coast. Markus, Brendan, Jayce, and Oso all came here to play for Stan.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Y'all.If Wojo gets fired in an offseason, Stan is not being hired to replace him. That's loony toons.The only way Stan would even be considered is if Wojo left after being successful here or if Wojo left midseason and Stan was named interim head coach.
Source?
Name a high major program that has promoted an assistant coach to head coach after firing the head coach in the offseason for poor performance.
To be clear, I don’t think and never said Wojo is getting fired. After yesterday, I believe he’s moving on. Just my opinion.
