New coach named by the end of the day? Silence before the storm?
Jerry Meyer @jerrymeyer247
Hearing a Maquette hiring could be imminent. Hearing more Shaka Smart as well. Evidently they think they have legit shot at him.

I just Creaned myself.
can you feel it!
Habemus Coacham? ;D
I was thinking the same thing as all is pretty quiet right now. I have tempered my expectations as to not be disappointed but these things take time and due diligence on marquettes part as well as the impending hire.
Ahhhhhhh. Needless to say, I haven't done a single thing at work today!
Jerry meyer was responding to VCUInsider on Twitter, so that may be his only bogus source.

I am predicting Shaka Smart will be the new coach at Marquette. #mubb

On the verge of tears of joy right now.

Is IWB out of town? Good things happen when he is gone :)
End of day, eastern or central time?
I can't breathe right now.
Wednesday is probably the time table for Shaka. If we don't hear today or tomorrow it's going to be Howland. This type of time table puts more pressure on Shaka and give VCU less time to match us with an offer. No inside info I'm just figuring what I'd do in this type of negotiating.
can't refresh twitter/scoop fast enough...
God. This better be true. I was ready to be very happy with Howland, but smart would be amazing.

Holy smokes.
Buzz to VCU. Would be an upgrade from VT after all.
Trying to stay calm...
... Trying.
... Trying.

Hearing from multiple sources that Shaka Smart to Marquette is after all very likely to happen and happen soon.

haha, constant refreshing
If Ganzer is saying it there must be something there, right??!!
Still not buying it. VCUInsider is still stirring the sh*t on Twitter...even picking up followers. Doesn't take much to get "multiple sources" right now.
Love all the references to "white puffs of smoke" though.

Would Shaka coaching change your whole outlook on the BBall team?

Same here. Howland would still be great but almost anti climatic now lol.
The way shaka's teams play and their philosophy are a joy. This would be GIGANTIC.
hope we aren't being used

Well, a lot of MU fans (myself included) ragged on IWB for saying Buzz to SMU "could really happen". And we were wrong, he was right - now that we have clarity, we can see it certainly had the legs. I'm not making the mistake of doubting him again.
Was ready to be ecstatic about Howland. I cant even process getting Shaka.
IWB is usually right? Isn't he. I am starting to get optimistic. But I know I shouldnt! lol

If this happens I am shutting down my computer and naming a drink after Shaka at the bar.
I can't process any of this right and have no idea what to think.
Would be a home run hire if this happens.
I need a doctor

GRAND SLAM ;D
If it is about to happen, I imagine that we have to be patient and allow time for the ink to dry and for Shaka to inform VCU and his team.
I'm all for being patient and allowing for a graceful exit.

Agreed. Isn't stopping me from refreshing Scoop every 45 seconds though. It's the Smart thing to do.
