The venn diagram of schools that would hire Wojo, and the schools that Wojo would leave Marquette for, do not come close to intersecting at this point in time.

I will never buy another vehicle without heated seats, and I believe all seats should have the option of being hot.

Have some patience, FFS.

You can get air conditioned seats (maybe called 'cooled' or 'ventilated'?) on a number of makes and models.  IIRC Saab was the first.

Exactly. Well stated.

Most every make offers them now.

Wasn't MU in on Hurley during the search to replace Brent?

I swear I remember thinking "I like Hurley.  He's East Coast, played in the Big League, and he's a head coach."  (I also remember Hurley's name being thrown around when Willard's seat was red hot).

In hindsight why did MU pass (so easily?) on Hurley?

I don't think so. Hurley was coming off a first year at Buffalo where he went 19-10 with no postseason. He was a hotter name the next year when DePaul was looking to replace Purnell after Buffalo went 23-10 and made the tourney.

Wasn't someone saying Hurley is more Buzz than Wojo when it comes to the rules?

How f*cked up is DePaul?

Back in 2015, they interviewed both Bob Hurley and Bryce Drew...and ended up with Dave Leitao.  Hurley has ASU beating top 10 teams on the road, and Drew is putting together one of the best recruiting classes in the country at Vandy.

And DePaul continues to be DePaul.

While they put $70 million+ into an arena that they cannot remotely fill, but couldn't find a few extra dollars to pay Hurley or Drew who would have filled it.

Yeah I'm sure both Hurley and Drew ran away from there like I did from my freshman year "Screw Your Roommate" Dance.

But regardless, there is a reason they ran.

As Sultan indicated, Drew and Hurley both turned DePaul down. But that's because DePaul was too busy being DePaul. If they had better leadership, one of those guys would be heading the Blue Demons right now.
