Larry Williams

[DJO's Pump Fake]

Could he look more stupid? Sweat stained Marquette golf hat, classy.

[MattyWarrior]

No class LW walkin around like hes at Home Depot

[Groin_pull]

Good ol' Larry. What a clueless, classless moron.

[🏀]

Nah, I like the LW presence.

You're all being stupid.

[4everwarriors]

I think he's the dude who used to walk Wisconsin Ave. in a grubby overcoat lookin' for a handout.

[Fullodds]

At least he wasn't wearing his ND hat

[Da 'Lanche]

Good ol' Larry. What a clueless, classless moron.

Didn't said "clueless, classless moron" actually get this gig on the schedule for Marquette?   I guess his hat far outweighs that fact.....

[Groin_pull]

Didn't said "clueless, classless moron" actually get this gig on the schedule for Marquette?   I guess his hat far outweighs that fact.....

Yeah, I'm sure Larry was the sole driving force behind making this game happen. 

[chapman]

Relax, wow.  Yall act like the cause for the delay is Larry peeing on the court.

[GGGG]

Didn't said "clueless, classless moron" actually get this gig on the schedule for Marquette?   I guess his hat far outweighs that fact.....

Shhhh....  That's not important.  What's important is how he's dressed.

[GGGG]

Yeah, I'm sure Larry was the sole driving force behind making this game happen.  

He was pretty much the force that got MU into the game...using his connections with Gene Smith and the UNC athletic director.  That story was stated on this board when someone smacked down Ners with it.

EDIT:  Here is the post.

Buzz also stated it in yesterday's press conference.

Well, it's been a huge success tonight. Congrats, Larry.

[GGGG]

You're hopeless. 

[tower912]

In what can only be considered foreshadowing, Larry Williams first attempt at a big splash for MU athletics turned into a big splash on the court due to the planners failing to factor dew into their grand plans.    

[Groin_pull]

You're hopeless. 

Hope you're still supporting Larry when MU is looking for a new head coach next year.
Idiot.

[Bocephys]

Hope you're still supporting Larry when MU is looking for a new head coach next year.

Stay classy.

[4everwarriors]

So who takes the financial bath on this bj?

I'm not supporting Larry Williams.  You are like a little kid, who when proven wrong, just says "nevermind....it wasn't important anyway."

I mean seriously, this thread started because people thought he dressed oddly.  

[MUCam]

LW looks like an idiot and I am not in the "I hate LW" group. But seriously....try to dress a little professionally.

[4everwarriors]

Did Larry even open his mouth in the whole cancel/not cancel scenario?

[TallTitan34]

People are really going to bash Larry for getting us into the Carrier Classic?  Come on.

[madtownwarrior]

Wow, this board has some serious dickheads when it comes to LW..,.

[Pakuni]

In the long and storied history of MU Scoop threads, this is by far the most stupid.
Congratulations, nitwits.

The fans....for sh*ts and giggles I went online and buried in their terms and conditions is this...

"There will be no refund in the event of inclement weather."

They could at least allow them to write off the value if it's going to charity now...

Predictable... "

Were they allowed to select their seats? If so, can they still write it off?

[ATL MU Warrior]

Yeah, the OSU AD was wearing a freaking sweatsuit.  He obviously is trying to turn OSU into...oh frack it, nevermind.

Reads like something a lawyer would write.
Larry Williams is a lawyer.
Do the math.

Have to hear from The old Chicos first before it can be that stupid.

You guys forgot that this is the "Walmart Carrier Classic."  Walmart dress code applies. 

[Mufflers]

With his hat down low, he looks like Louis CK.

With his hat down low, he looks like Louis CK.

Why? Because he has a goatee?

C'mon, we have had lots of threads dumber than this one.

OH DON'T LET REALITY INTRUDE ON AND CONTRADICT MY "I HATE LARRY WILLIAMS" WORLDVIEW, WHILE I SCRATCH AND SNIFF MY A**.

Good ol' Larry. What a clueless, classless moron.

Great.  THREE MUScoop posters outed themselves as useless, pathetic GARBAGE.  FYI, if you want to judge people based on clothing, there's always Project Runway. 

Until then kindly, F*** OFF.

I hate Larry Just as much as the next guy but what is he supposed to wear at an outdoor basketball game??

[lab_warrior]

In my stupid, pointless, subjective opinion that matters to NO ONE, LW looks like an idiot and I am not in the "I hate LW" group.  BUT, I am in the "I am incredibly stupid and petty" group, so  But seriously....try to dress a little professionally.

FIXED.

[jfmu]

My main concern is the condition of that hat. The guy must sweat more than buzz...he hasn't even been here that long

[mr.MUskie]

was it sweaty?  kinda looked like a camo pattern to go with the unis.

[Skitch]

I can't wait to see the thread after Larry wears a Hawaiian shirt in Maui next week.

[MUHoopsFan2]

You guys forgot that this is the "Walmart Carrier Classic."  Walmart dress code applies. 

LOL...they do look like something one might buy at walmart, but you can still get some good looking stuff a wal-mart my friend.

[4everwarriors]

Does Larry even play golf? Maybe he found the brim layin' around the Old Gym, yelled "finders, keepers," and decided to rock it.

[CoachRaymondsClass]

At the start of the "discussions," I noticed that Larry looked real comfortable standing at the edge of the huddle waiting for someone to call the play. Buzz needs to get him a deal with his clothier.

And as long as I'm nitpickin' how big bucks people represent mu University, would someone please tell Broeker to stop walking around constantly chomping vigorously on gum. A little old for that Broke, and not classy. My friends call him the "gum chomper."

It was a good thing Buzz was there to negotiate.

[ZiggysFryBoy]

I think he's the dude who used to walk Wisconsin Ave. in a grubby overcoat lookin' for a handout.

The Good Bum.  dude wasn't looking for cash, he was picking up cigarette butts.

Rumor had it was that cat was a Duke professor of some kinda social science doing a research project and lived with his brother just off campus.

Rumor also had it that Britney Spears was going to school at MU.

[Goose]

Not a lot of LW loving out there.

[Canned Goods n Ammo]

I don't like Larry, therefore I think his hat is dumb.

I like Larry, therefore I think his hat made him look like an "everyday kinda guy".

I don't care about Larry, and I don't care about his stupid hat.


The correct answer is #3. Always remember that.

[bilsu]

choice #4 I am not so shallow that I look for stupid things to criticise.

[Dr. Blackheart]

Every Athletic Director (all three) associated with the Carrier Classic was a Domer.  In the epic struggle of Man vs. Nature, only a Domer would be arrogant enough to think Man would win this one.

Meanwhile, the butcher, the baker, and the floor wiper was left to do a real man's job.

[Blackhat]

Had a terrible dream last night .....

A skinny Buzz just led Kansas to a national championship and was cutting nets while Larry was cutting my lawn.

[MarsupialMadness]

I don't have any opinion on LW as a person or on his hat last night, but I do subscribe to the notion that as a semi-public figure representing MU, he should look presentable.

[GGGG]

You guy are acting as if he was wearing shorts and a t-shirt or something.   He had a suit jacket, a button down shirt and dress pants.  Yeah, and a cammo Marquette hat.  He looked a little fashion challenge, but was more than "presentable."

Then I saw complaints that he wasn't involved in the discussions like Gene Smith was.  Of course we know that if he did engage in these discussions that he would be accused of stepping on Buzz's toes while making a basketball decision.

Yeah, I know I come off as a LW defender.  I frankly am pretty neutral on him so far, but I think ragging on this kind of stuff makes people sound very petty.

Some folks can't take off their anti Notre Dame glasses.  In High School I hated everything about the 'Eddies' at Marquette High.  In college many became my friends.

[Aughnanure]

II dont understand this thread

[jfmu]

If that was camo I stand corrected. To me it looked like salt stains from a old hat

[nyg]

Salt stained MU Golf hat. 

[Dr. Blackheart]

Sorry for the margin fXXX...but a MU Golf hat that is salt/sweat stained according to Scoop CSI.  Three things:
1.  Larry is dressed fine.
2.  This was a ND alum network deal...kudos to Larry for getting MU into this big event.  He bet big but this also missed big.  IF MU knew the water was an issue Thursday night, Larry should have insisted it be moved.  That is his job.  That said, this was an awesome event if it would have come off. Excellent opportunity.
3.  Some need to grow a recognition of an irreverent sense of humor here. 

[Frenns Liquor Depot]

Why are we getting on Larry for his dress -- Ohio State's AD is wearing Mom Jeans.

[T-Bone]

Buzz looked like a roadie for Captain and Tenille.  Who cares.

[romey]

I found it interesteing how the commentators kept pointing out how the Ohio State Athletic Director and the coaches were involved in conversations with the officials about whether to play or not.  They made that point at least three or four times and I don't believe they ever mentioned LW as part of that discussion - almost as if they didn't recognize him, or were ignoring the fact that he was in the huddles.

Ah, nothing like a little "Muscrat Love" reference on a Fall Saturday afternoon.

I believe Gene Smith was the chair of a recent NCAA Tournament Committee. Also, his name and face have been shown quite a bit due to all their scandals. I'd probably take it as a good sign they don't recognize or think it's notable to mention Larry Williams.

[tower912]

Larry's hat didn't bother me.   I have a couple of MU hats more sweatstained than that one.   Larry did nothing wrong here.      The fact that there was concerns about the condensation 24 hours prior and they didn't go to Plan B is far more troubling.

If the hat was sweat stained, I have a hard time understanding how the sweat got out to the edge of the visor.

Yes, with Buzz of all people.
