Title: I will receive your apologies now
Post by: Mike Deane's Seat Belt on March 19, 2021, 02:00:30 PM
I took some serious roasting here in the last few days for being the first one with inside information on wojo being canned.   Its a small community and not hard to know people in the MU inner circle.   

You guys are welcome and you know who you are!

This shitposter is ready to receive the penitent amongst this forum. 

And lastly. 

Wojo has no mojo and he is bout to go joe.

Many thanks.

Any tidbits on who the targets are?

Balderdash. 

I have it on good authority that Scholl was preparing a 5 year extension until he read the blogs yesterday and reversed course.

Probably.

They know wh they are, but will not admit it. There were a lot of guys here defending, excusing and slurping the guy virtually up to the end, although a few were starting to distance themselves.

Nice job, Seat Belt. The "know-it-alls" turned out to be "know-nothings" and most have too much hubris to outright say they were wrong. But you can take consolation knowing that you were right! And you stood up to the crap!

Yep.  There are a few posters in particular who repeatedly flat out said Wojo would be here next year.  Stated it like it was a fact, and anyone who didn't believe it was stupid.  They knew nothing.

I echo the thanks. Your thread gave me hope all week and today that hope was delivered.

Love it when people with knowledge actually post around here even though 99% of the time others will call them out without knowing what the hell they're talking about

You are either the second coming of Big Daddy OR you got lucky as hell and just posted a b.s theory before anyone else did and it actually happened.

Hopefully the former because an inside source is always welcome on this board

Yep, that's what gets me, over and over stating Wojo is not going anywhere (and implying we are idiots for thinking he should be fired).  And doing it o multiple boards as if they were hired by the administration...

Eat some crow for this one...

Okay. Sure. But how do we know who is knowledgeable and who is just spouting off?

As for JLew's deleted post on Instagram - what was the exact wording?  Do you think the team knew this was coming? 

Would Scholl have tipped them off, and asked them for patience?  Is that when Sy entered the transfer portal?

Could this have been how this played out, starting 3-4 days ago?  I wonder.

I think it's pretty easy if you're paying attention (not you, anyone).

Bad reporter said it for weeks, Warrior79 (I think that's his handle) said he heard the same things, etc, etc

There was no need for the smart asses to always chime in and mock the people sharing what they heard or telling everyone that the firing would NEVER happen.

It happens all the time. Not just with the Wojo topic

I appreciate when people come here and share share what they know

Yep - they who shall not be named constantly trumpeting around their defiant facts without any factual basis behind them - And putting down anyone who disagrees with them. Very unbecoming.

AFAIK, it was that JLew stopped following Wojo on instagram. Not anythign about a post.

But how are those not-in-the-know supposed to know who ACTUALLY knows something?

Oh, because they are sure to tell you afterwards.  And if they are wrong, they just hide from the board for a while and start up a new name.

There are a lot of people here who are quick to say, "I told you so", but when their leads are wrong you hear crickets.

Look at the post counts. You could completely discount the posts of Bad Reporter and Mike Deane's Glasses and see enough posts to know that there was some smoke, and from respected posters. Don't let bitter ProJos carpet bombing threads distract you.

The worst of them all is the moderator of another site who told those wanting a coaching change to shut up and deal with the fact that Wojo was not going anywhere.  This was up through yesterday.

Wow, how unplugged can a supposedly "insider" be so wrong?
Title: Re: I will receive your apologies now
Post by: PointWarrior on March 19, 2021, 07:56:28 PM
And now all he can say "great time to make a coaching change if you are going to do so".   

Schill for Marquette who obviously is not in the loop as he portrays.

SEAT belt I'm with you man. In a perfect world you post something people question it if they don't believe it and leave the vitriol at the door. We're supposed to be fans of the same program and weather we agree or disagree the language and hate spewed at people on this board has gotten ridiculous. I just started actually participating a slight bit after reading almost since the inception of this board. It's at all time lows and thankfully having learned how to block certain people who just spew the hate here it's a tad more readable.
Thanks for the heads up. In my heart I thought the university had no other choice to save what's left before complete collapse. Money is important and even if the buyout was big, the long term financial consequences were bigger if it's a complete crap team.

I have been saying for months:

If you raise / announce 37 million and still fire 39 non tenured staff, firing a basketball coach is just another day at the office.  It's a little embarrassing that so many MU alums couldn't put 2 & 2 together.

All the people citing financial issues are chicken littles with very little understanding of the real world.

a coach with little control of his players on the court, taking stupid shots, lack of hustle, lack of motivation.

I never commented on your thread or questioned your "source," I did check your posting history though (as I had you on ignore and didn't know why) and when I realized that your entire posting history is trashing Marquette players and coaches, I really didn't care if your source was real or not. Legit source or not, these are the types of reasons why someone might not take you seriously.

You are incorrect. Marquette wouldn't have made the move on its own. Donors stepped up to make it happen.

I never said donors weren't in play.  They very much were. My point is that university financials were not going to sidetrack this.  The only thing that could sidetrack this were donors.

Posters who said that they did not think Wojo would get fired this year do not owe you an apology. Posters who called you out as being incorrect would be the only ones who do. I do not know how many those would be because so many Nojo posters kept conflating the two. (Which was kind of irritating.) Your prescience does provide you credibility going forward.
