10th Annual FFC Day

[TSmith34, Inc.]

What does FFC mean?

Free From Chicos.

It's a medical term.  Unfortunately, no matter how many times the mods disinfect the place, Scoop only remains clean for a short time before the noxious, unwanted fungus grows back. You don't know of a way to permanently get rid of it, do you?

Well your feeding into the story as Tomny Naismith tells it.  I was a student pre-Cream, Dukiet n oneill years and even during tge very darkest times, far far darker than pre-Crean there were never as few as 200 students in the student section.  Please recall Dukiet was well below . 500 and there were far more than 200 students.  Often times good representation in the upper deck, far more than 200.  Then Deane won 100 games in 5 years, 20 per avg.  and had 2 really really good teams, but as Tommy Basketball tells it there were 200 students!? 🤥🤥
Total bullcrap and anyone around during thise times knows it.

I was a student during the Deane years  My roommate and I showed up late for the game where Larry Hughes dropped 40 on us and were able to walk right down to the middle of the removable riser seats for that game. The lower level of the student section wasn't close to full for that game and that was not uncommon during those years.  Other than the ND and Cincy games the student section barely trickled into the upper deck sections and we couldn't pack the student section for the ND game when 77 was retired.

Deane may have won 100 games in five years but his final two years brought little enthusiasm or optimism to the students and everyone knew the program was on a downwards trajectory, which is why he was fired.

Do you have a relationship with Coach Crean and Williams?  How do you know this stuff, you seem connected in some way.

People talk.  Some in the department some outside of it.

BTW, pretty much everyone in the athletic department really likes working with Wojo and his wife.

Quite certain billy hoyle/warrordad/chocos are one in the same.

nope.  I joined this board after reading for a while to call out Chicos on his know-it-allism (if that's not a term I'm coining it now) and posting of misinformation.

You know when I first joined,  people accused me of being Chico's because I didn't hate TC. There are other fans who were neutral/liked the guy

Whew!! That's a relief!! Not as much a relief as winning boatloads of games and going deep in the tournament, but I guess beggars can't be choosers!

It's OK to want both

Of course it is, TAMU, but i'd rather have a Nick Saban who is demanding of those who work with him (and himself) than a Bob Dukiet who plays piano at the annual Christmas party.

there's a difference between "demanding" and "being a dick," as Crean was.  Then Buzz took that to another level to the point people longed for the days of TC and Joani.

Examples?  Otherwise hard to believe to be honest.

Making managers valet park his car every day. Having admins bring him his meals course by course, even when others were in there or had appointments and were waiting for him. That's what Buzz evolved into.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

But did his managers flush for him?

WOW! A manager parked his car? You've got him pegged, Billy - he's a regular Joe Stalin!

[UNC Eagle]

Hallelujah--a decade free of that cs'er and his snake oil sales pitch. Didn't take long for the folks in Bloomington to get his number and now he's Athens' problem. Don't reserve a etching spot on Stone Mountain 'cuz that ain't happening and he's no threat to rise again. Adios mf'er and the horse you rode in on.
