A legit news outlet is reporting what's being said on message boards?! That's just embarassing.

Yes.  I didn't think it would get through the first time, since it didn't get through yesterday.  I don't think it can be stressed enough that you can't suddenly figure everything out by listening to what Buzz didn't say.

But didn't you see the way he raised his eyebrows after making the "The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker" comment? And how many times did he tap his fingers on the desk...he's trying to communicate without letting everyone know! There must be something there!

If any MU personal hop on the fast park shuttle at Mitchell I will alert all of you via Bat Call

FYI:  As a van driver I must give you the rules on tipping your van driver.  If I dont touch your bags you have no obligation to tip.  If I do carry your bag one dollar is totally acceptable.  If you and your wife travel and both have a bag than two dollars is cool.  If you are a family of 5 and each have a giant bag, plus Skis, and Golf Clubs than 5 dollars is good.  

If you dont have any money that is totally cool, just say "hey, Im out of cash but i appreciate your service"  this is a really cool move.    However;  If you dont have cash and you shake my hand and say "Nice JOb"  than that is bull.

Or you can

That's a Twitter link to 8 current players / coaches on the team. If something happens, I'm betting on Twitter first.

Often can't figure things out by what Buzz DOES say.

Maybe IWB was as well to drive traffic to his new site.

Seems highly likely to me.

And to MU Ave who thinks we need more threads.  No.  This one will do just fine.  Why have hundreds of little trash cans for one topic when you can have one big one.

Do you run that? May I suggest adding @CJC32BOSS which is Jae Crowder and @JRwontLOSE which is Cadougan?

Did you just humanize yourself?

I must say though, I've had several huge LOL moments in this thread.  We've got some pretty hilarious Scoopers.

Hearing from a good and reliable source this morning that the Athletic Department, and particularly Larry Williams, have started to reach out to big donors in order to brace them for the news of Buzz's impending departure.  Apparently, the message being delivered stresses the University's commitment to maintaining a "high quality" men's basketball program.  This same source claims that Buzz met with SMU representatives yesterday.

Given that there's been no annoucement or public confirmation from either side, anything is still theoretically possible.  But this same source has been right about things before and believes Buzz is going to leave.  

Can anyone else confirm a Buzz/SMU meeting and/or AD contact to donors re: his departure from MU?

I figured this was a given: Buzz sees he can use Ganzer to try to leverage a raise, Ganzer gets page views. No?

In what way are they reaching out? I imagine a phone call: Hi Dr. Booster, this is Marquette University Athletic Director, Larry Williams. I just wanted to let you know that Marquette sincerely appreciates the donations that you've made to help our athletic department become one of the best and most well-funded in the Big East. By the way, Buzz is leaving for a mid-major and we're about to become DePaul. Enjoy your Tuesday!

Well if true, the better have one hell of replacement ready that have already been talking to. LW will only get one shot at this.

Add... Don't worry though because we think we have the inside track to hire one of the hottest young coaches around... Yep you guessed it. Brian F'n Wardle. Currently tearing it up at UW-GB, signing 7 footers left and right, in addition to a few 5 footers.
