IWB on twitter

Somewhat of an interesting corroboration on Twitter from the head coach at Manual H.S. in Peoria:

@Dwilliams1515 "Been saying since last week Shaka Smart to Marquette. . Hearing the terms are Agreed upon. . We will see...#NCAA"

[Galway Eagle]

I'm waiting till it's on Wikipedia to believe it.

Solid find here, good work.

A reliable source will help me calm down...

[Avenue Commons]

This deserves a bump.

If it ends up Shaka has been playing MU to gain leverage at VCU that's going to be upsetting. But you'd think Wild and Cords are wily veterans and could see if that were the case.

[MarquetteFan94]

If you search Shaka Smart on Twitter, it is blowing up.

Since cat is out of the bag.....

Goooooooooooooooooooooooose

Maverick is now your wingman!!

Ners


I am with you completely. Want it signed, sealed and delivered.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Some Wisconsin Badger folks implying Shaka for the last 36 hours was getting closer.

Thank you, I thought I was the only one that remembered that....and the fact that he said it on recorded audio the DAY BEFORE BUZZ LEFT

"He's got a great job at MU.   Well paid.   Great practice facility.   Just basketball.    Good conference, great TV deal.    Wife and kids love it here.   Buzz isn't about the money, he is about respect.   As long as that is ironed out under the new administration, IWB sees Buzz at MU for a long time."

I guess he wasn't "Ultimately Inside" for the 6 weeks prior to BW getting shown the door...

This might be the hardest I've laughed in a long time.  Excellent post!

Is Jim Ganzer reliable?  No hate to him I only met the guy a couple times in class. 

Jim is a great guy.  When I was a student during the final 4 run.  He had a hotel room in Minneapolis that he did not want to use so he let me have it for free!!!   
His brother drove me to Minneapolis.  It was great.  Excellent family

He wasn't necessarily wrong.   Respect didn't get ironed out with the interim administration or the new one.   Buzz left.

Ah so there is another Jim Ganzer in Milwaukee! Crazy small world.

Agreed.  Sounds pretty spot on to me.  It wasn't about money in the end.  All about Buzz trying to cover up something two years ago and then feeling disrepected ever since with the new AD and President who tried to control how he ran the program.  Two years of putting your name out there for jobs and a 17-15 record ended up with Buzz getting pushed out the door.  Clear he wanted out and we didn't want him anymore.  The new conference had very little to do with it.  Sad but could have been avoided on all parts.  

IWB has been the best source of inside information regarding Marquette Hoops for a long time in my opinion.  The only time he missed the boat was when he was throwing out false buy-out numbers with Crean's contract.  This goes back to the old jsonline forum days.  Where is Abe Froman now??  

I feel good about Shaka signing with MU.  Why? Because I trust Ganzer, who has been right a lot of times and wouldn't post it unless he felt pretty confident about the info. Patience.

He was wrong. This story began 6 weeks before BW bolted. IWB made this statement as BW was packing his bags for VPI. Doesn't sound all that plugged in to many people here.

Talk about slurping? Go the Brew City board where you have a dozen or so guys bad mouthing Scoop in every thread while sticking their noses up the moderator's ass.

[NavinRJohnson]

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey! What the hell are Goose and I??? Chopped Texan Liver??

What's good for the Goose is good for the Ganzer.

[tower912]

You mean guys who used to post here but got fed up and left?    Sorry, man.   IWB has been the ultimate MU insider for a while.  He has made basketball in the Milwaukee area his life.    Just because you disagree with him doesn't change that.
