Duke fans vs. VCU fans

[Tums Festival]

He all know how some VCU fans invaded Scoop last week and tried to mock us and tried to spread as much mis-information as possible.

Duke fans have been quite the opposite, some saying they've become Marquette fans. Some sample tweets:

Pretty pumped that @steve_wojo is coming to Marquette. One of my all time favorite. Definitely a new @MarquetteMBB supporter. #dukelove

Team Byrd ‏@CoachByrdDog  35m
In addition to being a Duke fan, I have now become a Marquette fan! Marquette names Duke's Steve Wojciechowski Head Basketball Coach!

Jill Murphy ‏@JKMurf  54m
“@realgranthill33: Congrats to my guy @steve_wojo on his new position as coach of the Marquette Men's Basketball team. ” New Marquette Fan!

What a refreshing change.

There is a difference between promoting an assistant and poaching a head coach.

Part of it is because we aren't STEALING their coach. We're giving him a promotion (I think we debatably offered Shaka a promotion too...). This is a proud day for the Duke program.

You do realize their is quite a difference in taking an assistant away and a head coach right?

They like Wojo...they are happy he is getting this opportunity...if we had taken K I think it's safe to assume the reaction would have been a bit different.......

The VCU fans were douchebags regardless.

In all seriousness though, could you imagine the implosion that would occur on the VCU boards is Shaka ended up coming here?
