Juan Anderson's Mixtape

Quote from: Goose on March 24, 2019, 09:37:45 AM
Just curious for the pro Woj camp, does it bother you if this rumor is true? For me, it probably shows there is more behind the scenes than we know is going on. Starting with Woj might know something about Howard.

I would definitely wonder what is the rest of the story.  And while I don't think Wojo should be fired, I wouldn't be distraught if he left. 

Coaches come and go.  Each coaching change presents a combination of challenges and new opportunities.   I'd still prefer Wojo stays though, because next year should be Wojo's best year yet.

Good way for Wojo to take heat off his players.  Shift the conversation to Wojo looking for a new job.

Is the heat really on the players. They are all Wojos guys and he is responsible. Sure, some have had bad games, but zit is Wojo that should get the heat.
I thought you were dead. Willie lives rent free in Reekers mind. Rick Pitino: "You can either complain or adapt."

Obviously someone needs to be watching Flight Tracker and scouting out the baggage claim at McCarran.
Only way to get to the bottom of this.

Do we have eyes stage side at the finer gentlemen's clubs in Vegas?

After reading the link Cheeks posted, I didn't see anything that was really beyond the pale, just some justifiably upset MU fans calling Wojo out after a blowout loss.  Certainly nothing like what was done to Herro per the Bleacher Report article.  If people were actually threatening him or his family, I understand why he'd delete it.  But if he just can't handle criticism, deleting the account the day after a Tournament loss is pretty weak, and, as Gary Busey would say, makes Wojo look like a gut maggot with no guts.

This isn't the first time Wojo has shown his thin skin, unfortunately.  I don't think any of us have forgotten when he went off on the student reporter last year.  And if he is going to be sensitive to fans and media, he could at least give us all a memorable quote once in a while.  Unfortunately, the man makes Robocop look like Robin Williams.

But Buzz going off student reporters was ok, and Buzz blasting Jim MacIlvaine was cool, too...right?  If we want to go into the thin skinned comparison that would be an epic one.  Has Wojo's wife come on the board to defend him like Buzzard's?
"I hate everything about this job except the games, Everything. I don't even get affected anymore by the winning, by the ratings, those things. The trouble is, it will sound like an excuse because we've never won the national championship, but winning just isn't all that important to me." Al McGuire

Not sure if everyone picked up on Keefe's joke.  Read the name carefully.
he wrote that while drinking his favorite drink, a warm Dickens Cider

I don't think anyone would deny Buzz has very thin skin.

Oh I think you are selling the Messiah's converts way short.

TAMU, Knower of Ball

I think all coaches have some level of paranoia. I think its a byproduct of the profession. I couldn't imagine having thousands of people watching me work and having entire forums dedicated to analyzing how well I was doing my job.

Plus your life is controlled by how well 18-22 year old boys / young men act and play.

Some have bigger set of rabbit ears than other guys. No doubt, a tough racket having idiots like me commenting on performance. As you know, that comes with a big paycheck. In the case of Wojo, I think any criticism on here, aside from couple of guys, is hardly harsh criticism.

DePaul and Dave Leitao gets more criticism on MU Scoop than on the Demon Den. Would you rather have an enthused and involved fan base or a vacuous, silent cathedral?

I've generally been pro-Wojo and frankly think this sounds like much ado about nothing (if he is out there it's probably recruiting), but if he were to go, now would be the time. We return a strong foundation that would help a new coach get established quickly. Better than bailing in a year when we would lose 4 seniors & have another potential grad transfer.

Was definitely wondering if he was just out there putting the hard sell on Strawther and it was misinterpreted by unwashed masses

Did that really happen?  How did I miss that?
