Crean took the student base from 200 student season tickets to over 3,000 sold each year. Still happens today, because of Tom Crean!

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.

The SEC has quietly accumulated a great collection of well-known coaches.  In addition to Calipari, the SEC now has Crean, Barnes, Martin, Howland, Pearl, Avery, Kennedy, Anderson and White.  Lot's of experience there. 

I have no doubt that Tranghese was working behind the scenes to help the SEC step up its basketball side of things.

If "rolling" = two missed NCAA tournaments and one NCAA tournament win in the 5 years before Buzz took over - then yeah.

Why is it that you used five years here, but in the other reference to DePaul vs Virginia Tech it was only two or three years? 

If you applied the same consistency then rolling would mean three straight NCAA tournament appearances and no misses, plus a team that was very good for Coach Williams first season. 

Would you say Virginia Tech is rolling right now after two straight NCAA appearances?  I would, so why five years in your example?

Yeah, that’s why the athletics staff longed for Tom and Joani during Buzz’s reign of error.

So TC snubbed you once, grow up, get over it.

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

Pearl has done a very good job at Auburn.  I Will be looking forward to the first Auburn Georgia game next year.  Can Crean keep his undefeated streak against Pearl going.

A small, very insecure creature.  One prone to name dropping, hyperbole, and untrue statements intended to make his life seem less pathetic than it truly is.... that is a Jamie

Starting to make more sense the comments I'm seeing.  To answer your question, no.   Will leave if you want me to, did not realize my comments were somehow toxic or harmful.  Found this message board entertaining which is why I signed up.

meh, who cares?    He seems to have moved on from his anti-buzz obsession.    He hasn't been vindictive or personal in this iteration.  He hasn't chronically name dropped.   Let him be until he reverts.
