Sad thing is only three people will know what you mean by that.

If and when Buzz leaves, no matter what the school or circumstance, I will still like him 100x more than his douche bag predecessor.

Goose

It would be lunacy to me if my head was in the sand. Actually sad to me.

macman320

like completely suspending a program for a year death penalty?

Daniel

What do you mean?  And for what?

Goose

Something like that Mac.....maybe during the down decade we can retire twenty more numbers.

Rican, as you know big difference between the two. Besides, Buzz is essentially being terminated.

You mean Buzz Williams is staying?  He's always been so quiet about the matter.  It's not like he ever said he intended to stay or anything.

(This isn't a shot at the above poster, more at the out of control lunacy this thread has turned into)

Have your mouthpieces put a couple tidbits out there, get the heat turned up a little to make sure Larry and Pilarz understand the direction MU Nation wants to head in and understand that they don't control him as they may have learned when their phones were blowing up with pissed off donors all day long, get to pitch what might be a nice job for your worthy assistant, make the fans hate SMU which will boost attendance in games against a bottom feeder.  All in a day's work.  Buzz Williams, ladies and gentlemen, our coach, friggin awesome.

This morning this thread was three pages and dying until IWB's twitter post.  Then it blew up to 16 pages.

This is the only new "fact" we have ... per IWB MU granted SMU permission to talk to Buzz and he is "listening" (whatever that means).

Everything else here is made up by grown Men in their basement.

Dammit, I take offense to this.

I am sitting on my screened in porch and NOT in my basement!!!!

Daniel

Mods took that one down pretty fast.

Goose

He nailed my location....at least it is my basement and not my Mom's.

The next step after "listening" is "Ladies and gentlemen, SMU is please to welcome it's new coach..."  Remember Crean was "listening" to Indiana as far as we knew and he was literally eating dinner in Bloomington a few hours later. There is no intermediate step from here.

How many big games did Crean win without Wade? If he failed with his best chance he knew his place in college backing order would go down. He could not win big games and that is a fact. The act was growing old because return on investment was shrinking.

It's subjective as to what is "big" but there are plenty of wins in his career outside of Dwyane's two seasons.

I don't believe one word of what you wrote regarding Crean because you show all the hallmarks of that type of MU fan who cannot look past the notion that Crean left the University so all you do is minimize his accomplishments.

If you want to talk ROI, Crean was a magician regarding attendance and that's a source of revenue that has declined both in perception and reality.

For the record, we're amateurs.  The Illini board thread on their coaching search is over 350 PAGES now!
