Actually, the contracts are signed.  We are stuck with each other.

Dodds runs your board too?

[LovinCrowder]

Instead of talking in circles I believe an email to Buzz showing your support for him and an email to LW saying he better not let the next Al go will be better then talking about rumors on this message board.

I TOTALLY agree with you......we need to make our feelings known to more than just this message board.....

I was responding to the post asking about SMU joining the Big East.  Those contracts are signed and complete.  SMU and MU will be stuck together shortly.

I doubt Buzz Williams contracts are close to complete. He would be giving up great job.  Until I hear him on 1310 the ticket, I will be keeping fingers crossed.

Sorry, what is this buzz email address that supposedly gets to him? Thx

[mr.MUskie]

Let me rephrase SMU has offered Buzz Williams a multi year contract for over 20 million and are in current negotiations.

LW has his finger on the pulse of the situation. Sure he has things well in control.

Now their is a credible source, another grown man in his basement on the Illini board.

What do the Middle Tennessee State boards say?

[Hoopaloop]

That isn't true at all. Crean had a great relationship with Fr. Wild and Greg Kliehban--so much so, he had a sit down apology to them after he left. Crean left for only one resoan: he saw 6 or 7 jobs as elite and Indiana was one of them. He wants to get an NCAA title and Indiana would make that more likely for him. Rectruiting would also be easier for him. He actually pulled the Houdini act because he didn't want Strong and Wild to convince him to stay. Crean did not leave because of the University at all, it was an obstacle to him leaving. Get your facts straight.

I have said many times Crean left to take a better job.  Indiana is a better program, a better job.  It is a blueblood program. It's Indiana, It's Indiana.  Our fans get all hurt and bothered by that, but it is true and will always be that way.   You seem to imply that I said he left for reasons other than that and that doesn't square with what I have continually said.  IU is a better program than MU.  There is no debate on that.  None.

However, from the things I heard there was some issues with the university as well going back to Cottingham named as the AD.

While we are getting our facts straight, don't you have a law lesson to teach Michael Hunt who said the other day MU broke state law.  He apparently didn't get your lesson here that you taught all of us during the Summer.

Age before beauty, Goose.

[Smu18]

What's the wager? Buzz and Benford to SMU, name your price.

Lucky for you we had plenty of money for buzz and didn't want any mu fans to pay out of pockets for his move...

[HoopsMalone]

If he had permission to talk to SMU it does not look good.  Toss up at best.   If smu asked for permission they probably know through third parties that Buzz has legit interest.
