If Larry and Pilarz ended up losing Buzz... they know the crapstorm they were in for. These are not stupid guys.  

Does anyone actually believe they would care what students/alumni/fans think?  We don't sign their paychecks.  We can't do anything to seriously affect their job security.  They can pretty much do damn well as they please, whether we like it or not.

If the deal is being reported by an actual news organization, just tell us the news organization, we can find it

Lol! Fair, should have done that from the get go.  WTMJ.  They also said he is "expected" to refuse the offer.

But... isn't this a thread built upon crap, piled with more crap, and topped off with a SMU17/18 cherry of crap?

I think this stuff is over.  Buzz is staying and I think we actually had an impact(those that emailed).  I suspect LW realized he had a crap storm on his hands and moved quickly to suppress it.  I also agree with whom every posted that this was Buzz leveraging the situation.  It was basically Buzz saying listen, trust me or this thing won't work.  Hopefully that puts an end to the micromanagement.

No.  Just, no.  No you didn't.

Rumor has it that Mrs. Williams was seen shopping at the SMU book store buying SMU apparrel.  I heard this from my kids school teacher who's friend's uncle saw the whole transaction.

Ya know, I don't think there needs to be any other thread. Everything seems to fit in here.

That was my thought, especially so close to full time.

OT: great save by Johnson there!

The other board mentions a JS article where the current AD was critical of Buzz.  If accurate, can anyone provide a link, or a quote from that article?  Thanks in advance.

A hypersensitive overblown reaction by fans. I had to read it 3 times and still come to the same conclusion.  That's it?  What the hell are people complaining about.

They should certainly care.  Those of us who buy tickets and sign an annual paycheck to the school do our part in signing their paycheck.  Getting a couple hundred messages urging them to a certain course of action is something they would be foolish to ignore.  The phone calls they probably got would certainly do more, since those donors give more money than the scores of e-mailers.

Hey Dutch, saw your comment on your site about us being up to 49 pages talking about you guys talking to buzz.  To be honest, a good portion of those 49 pages are about kringles.

All of the people that emailed in today obviously think they care.

I'm all for people "being heard", but if our AD needed a bunch of emails to see that Buzz is valuable, he's an absolute failure as a employee and as a person.

Emails should not be how the AD does his job.
