Respect the process

The origins seem to harken back to the hiring process of Buzz Williams, and was initially more of a catch phrase.  The phrase didn't reach full blown meme until March 2014 during the Shaka Smart affair.  At that time MU was searching for a new head coach, with a lot of attention paid to Shaka Smart, including rumored secret meetings.  Used essentially to tell people to calm down if they didn't know all the details


Available a week later

This meme arose in the dark days between Crean's expectedly unexpected departure from MU and immediately following Buzz Williams being hired as HC.  There were those who were comfortable with MU's choice and those who thought it was a terrible idea.  Those in the terrible camp decried the process as well as the outcome.  Chicos was part of the concerned camp, but his big point that became repeated ad nauseam was that Buzz William's was a available a week later and MU could have hired him at their leisure once other candidates were exhausted.  Not sure about that, but I am sure it became a recurring meme on Scoop
