"Marquette University Athletic Director Steve Cottingham and selected members of the men's basketball team will be available at 3 p.m. today in the Al McGuire Center Media Room to discuss the week's developments regarding the program. "

Good to see we are finally addressing this issue.  Put together a crew and lets go get somebody big.  Now for all the alumni, be ready to open your check books.

[Gwaki]

Will that be on TV?

[Tulsa Warrior]

Not bad recovery from being blindsided.

[mwbauer7]

This is potentially a big step in the road. Lets see what comes from this...

[TVDirector]

WITI 6 said they are covering...

I presume that, at least, an interim head coach would be named?  Most likely buzz Williams. Need stability here.

[murocky01]

Can one of you tech saavy posters provide a link to the press conference?

They will introduce Portland Trailblazers Assistance Coach Maurice Lucas as the Interim Coach.  Coach Lucas will then personnally clear the room through physical means removing all reporters and media representatives, taking no crap from anyone.  His only statement will be  "Enough of this sh**, we are moving on"  Then it's time to meet with players/recruits and explain loyalty.

Mo Lucas seems like a guy that would take sh** from no one...

[nyg]

NO ONE!!!!   When Maurice went on the court, I remember opposing players watching him and they stayed away from him.  Actually, players were frightened and scared.  Ask Darryl Dawkins after Lucas went pro, one punch and he is out.  Thats what we need, "Enough of this Sh**"   

[ecompt]

"open our check books"? You are kidding, right? We have Crean's $1.6 million plus the millions Indiana is paying us to buy out the contract. If we can't get someone for that kind of money, fold the effing program.

Any chance this thing is open to the public?

[NavinRJohnson]

I did hear someoen say it is not open to the public.

[Niv Berkowitz]

Whatever MU gets in the form of a buyout is the money you use for the new coach.

Bring in a name. Bring him in now.

Kruger
Lavin
Miller

Spare us the MU re-treads (O'Neal, Majerus)

Steve Lavin wasn't a big winner at UCLA.  If he couldn't win there, what makes you think he could win at MU?  Miller and Kruger are good choices, but I doubt they'd come.
