I asked this on a thread that seems to have gone missing, but does anyone have any credible information on what Wojo's buyout it?
At this point we might as well suck it up. He isnt going anywhere. Great class coming in. People have too expectations of the program anymore. It is what it is, which is a middle of the pack program.

I cannot accept this.
Nothing like a clean mediocre politically correct program.
I dont blame Koby we as fans know what he brings. Sad thing is our coach doesnt and chose to put him in the game 3 times in the second half, all with predictable results. And we lost by 2. Gonna argue we win if koby doesnt play.
Same can be said in depaul n many other games this year.

Its not like I want to either, but its out of our control. Is it frustrating to see MU not live up to expectations every year? Absof***inglutely. But im just apathetic at this point. If they win, hooray, if they lose, its not gonna ruin my day. Winning cures all. Fans want to see this team win, tickets wont sell as much next year, donations will drop and that will be what changes anything. If neither takes a hit, nothing will change.
The 6-year slide toward irrelevancy continues . . .
Yes, apathy has already creeped in. But now the mantra will be, well we have next year with 3 studs coming in. The team will again be mediocre and the same people will be making excuses for Wojos wonders.
Didn't Wojo say they would look at things in the offseason in regards to what caused the late season slide and said "we'll get it fixed".

The coach can't fix the issue when the coach is the issue.

Really? That cannot be true.

Remember his offseason press conference where he condescended his critics throughout the subtext of the entire interview and basically said we don't respect him/Markus enough? And then the season immediately following that press conference ended up even more embarrassing than the preceding one? Good times.
So after careful evaluation of last season's collapse, the strategy was for Markus to chuck 20% more shots per game? That cannot be true.

Very difficult to understand. You would think that you would learn from your mistakes!
I mean....at least this years collapse didn't cost them a BE title. Positivity!

I wonder if the assistants are just a bunch of yes men or as clueless to what does/doesn't work. Either way it is evident Wojo is thin skinned and can't handle a critique of any kind. Not a winning formula.

Bingo. He is incapable of having his teams' play defend him so he has to gaslight the fanbase. A sad practice adopted by several scoopers here.
I supported his extension last year. I was wrong. He needs to go. I'm afraid what MU will look like if he comes back. No doubt next year will be worse than this year. The students will be in full NoJo mode and attendance will drop. This will get very ugly.
Lovell, Scholl, et al don't have the balls to do what's right. Big $ donors likely have to drive change

Next year will definitely be worse, so cut bait. Too bad some good recruits coming in, but hey, many thought Sam and Joey were excellent recruits, and they bolted under this guy, so there is no given that these next guys would stay.

I think your right. Even with the incoming class (if they stay with MU) I think MU is digging a deeper hole by keeping Wojo. Even if the recruits are as good as advertised, I can't see Wojo getting us to .500. As I said before, next year will be very ugly due to lack of fan support.
I'll start the GoFundMe

No answers yet and I am already adding to your question. What scenarios might there be whereby Marquette offers to write down the buyout substantially for another school interested in taking Wojo? Maybe even giving Wojo some money for "resigning"?
Unfortunately, I have no faith that Wojo is going anywhere. This is exactly what the admin wanted to build. A middle-of-the-pack Big East team that stays out of trouble.

Yup. And no balls to make a much needed change.

And foolishly gave him an extension that they're probably afraid now to eat rest of money left. Wow.

I know, so tired of the condescension if you dare think differently and heaven forbid, criticize Wojo, powers that be at the school, etc. They own this mess.
Any alum on this board who still has his/her wagon hitched to wojo only cheapens the value of my diploma
