All of this is going to be over Tony Benford in the end. Watch.
Well, cr*p, who do we get to replace Benford, then? I like his recruiting chops. And do any of our recruits follow him?

Yeah thats a great idea...you lose ND if you do that and then you lose $$$

The bball schools don't really get all that much of the TV money. Its really pretty small - something like 1-2 million (not counting NCAA credits). Nova, GTown, MU, St. John's, DePaul, Xavier, etc., would get a decent TV deal that would comparable if not more.

Wonder what she was doing to have such a big smile on her face.

Its a big skirt...its all about what is under there.  Probably the same product that SMU18 used to make all his imagined money that he is now imagining he is giving to Buzz.

We can probably shut the thread down now guys. This one is over.

Buzz isn't leaving.  I don't know if there will be any formal announcement or anything, but maybe it will be in the form of Seth Greenburg or Tony Benford named SMU coach.

Time to relax. If you insiders want to check sources again go ahead, but I'm pretty sure this one is done.

I don't know any specifics, or what really caused all this. I just know what I heard.

But I'm rooting for 1000 replies! I'm sure we can keep this going.

Anyone seen those videos by some group called the Spanish O'Donnells? I hear they're pretty good.

Hearing good things about Buzz staying, and also to keep the emails coming.

I will not pander to this mob mentality to make this thread the longest ever and simply post about nothing.....the message board is not a place for me to post things about randomly coincidentally connected bits of unsubstantiated rumor and innuendo and then draw significant conclusions from those as stated random pieces of "information" let alone to post about nothing and have people carry on about it.  That is simply irresponsible use of a free internet forum and I won't have it.

Aughnanure, I'm going to keep posting this until you people get it.  Replying for the sake of replying to get over a 1000 replies is just wrong and is what leads to the ascension of the apes.  Don't make me continually post this to get you guys to stop.  Stop posting random things that have nothing to do with this random thread

Anyone poster not part of this thread should have their handle highlighted in red (scarlet letter) to signify that they are bad bad people.

I will not be intimidated into posting in this ridiculous thread.

Well come on man really?  You can't hold back an assistant coach now.  That's ridiculous.  That's how those guys get to the next level.  You can't tell me you are just as concerned losing Benford as you are Buzz.  Great recruiter? Of course but you can't build a 40 foot wall around our program.  Come back down to earth a bit.

If the Spanish ODonnells were wearing Marquette Gold outfits, with their favorite beers in front of them, while Buzz was being introduced at an SMU press conference, and Tom Crean was there, with Chicos wearing a Directv outift, I think the internet would explode. Of course we would know about this because IWB tweeted about it.

My apologies to mu03eng.

Couldn't live with myself if I missed out on a chance to be a part of this historical cluster f*** of a thread, even if I have nothing to add (though that doesn't seem to be a requirement for posting).  Has Freeway added his two cents worth yet?

I spoke with Freeway this morning.  He asked me if Marquette has found a new Dean for the college of Arts and Sciences yet.

Freeway informed me that he's completely over this NCAA tournament season and is looking forward to the Stanley Cup Playoffs...

I'm sure he told you who won the 1972 Women's NCAA Tourney with a complete stat breakdown as well.

That's been Freeway's concern for years.
