It wasn't directly copy and pasted.  Giving a summary is fair use.

Good luck suing some anonymous user on the internet for not-exactly copying 6 sentences from a forum of information :P

Just dumbed down the synopsis even further...when in reality it was what everyone knew already.  Just in concise 8 bullet format.

Actually I don't think he does.

Especially if he thinks money is the issue. I thought it was all coming down to academic and discipline issues and Buzz accepting the restraints. It's a take it or leave it offer on the table now to Buzz isn't it?

Since we aren't in the Big East yet, I don't think any provision like that would apply.  

I would imagine it would.  There are agreements to enhance the athletics and facilities of SMU, why wouldn't there be something in there regarding poaching recruits/coaching/administrative staff - or a general acceptance of BEast by-laws leading up to?  

So, anyone have a BEast agreement from a public school joining up?

Do the BOT & AD really think they can bring in a coach who is more concerned about the kids he brings in and molding them into men than Buzz?  Maybe they've put out feelers to the Pope.
Don't know what this has to do with my post you quoted, but assuming Buzz is not just full of BS (and I don't think he is, but if he's flirting with other jobs over ___ then who knows) they cannot do better than Buzz in this regard.

GOO

That inside info from SMU added nothing that hasn't already been posted here.

And please refrain from using my real name any more!

I think there could be, but not sure if there is.  I asked the same question yesterday.  The BE has a transfer rule that does not allow transfers within conference.  I am too lazy to look it up right now, but I know you have to sit out two years.  I do not believe you may receive a scholarship - but the last part I am not 100% sure of.  

Now, when the BE expanded, did they include a clause that requires adherance of these rules?  That is the question.

So if the nightmare becomes reality, does that make Benford the most likely replacement?

That might not be too bad.  Didn't he land a lot of our recruits?  It's obviously a major key to keep the guys on board because in 2 years MU has clear top 10 talent.  That would be a necessary spring board to keep the program rolling....

You are correct, but I was not a fan.  Cheese dust gets everywhere and something is off about the flavor.

wait, are those the ones you have to travel across the country to get. I think i saw a commercial about them. A car load of coeds drove thousands of miles to get them and they looked liked they had as much fun as those people in the mountain dew commercials

This may be a time to point out or remind people that Buzz has no agent coordinating all this.

Out of curiosity if there comes the day that Buzz does hire an agent or has an unofficial sort of "advisor" doing the leg work on these such matters, is he obligated to update us on the message boards so we can refrain from reminding people this?

you can get the best nachos in the city on like 19th and Center, or somewhere around there.  All the fixings, dumped on a bag of nacho doritos in a Styrofoam container.

So MU will have two admittance policies around JUCO's?  If you are a JUCO applying to the College of Communications and you qualify academically but DON"T play basketball, you are in.  If you are the same but PLAY basketball, you are out. I want a piece of that lawsuit settlement action.

Huh?  Never said that.  If JUCOs want to come to Marquette that's great.  Marquette won't deny their admission because they went to a JUCO.  That doesn't mean Buzz is forced to recruit JUCOs.  Pillarz and Williams could tell Buzz they only want him recruiting 4 year high school players.  If JUCOs want to apply for admission at Marquette and pay their own way, great.

Should people start throwing around lawsuits to any and all Division 1 sports programs that do not have JUCOs on their rosters?  These coaches can recruit whoever they want to.  If they choose not to recruit JUCOs for whatever reason, then they don't recruit JUCOs.  File lawsuits for that?  Good luck.

I have a family at home and a business to run at work. And I can't stop reading this thread.

It really is like a car wreck on the side of the road. I can't look away even though I know this is much ado about nothing.

The whole thing with SMU is the classic butterfly that flapped its wings in Indonesia and caused a ripple that led to an epic thread on MUScoop.com.

Quoted the wrong thread.  With things flying so fast and furious I guess I lost my place.  Sorry.
