The actions of Buzz were most definitely putting people in bad spots, as Cheeks posted above. I was not privy to it, but I heard the stories from solid sources, and it serves nobody to elaborate. That said, I plead guilty to absolutely loving our product on the court under Buzz. I felt a bit conflicted knowing how the sausage was made.

From the day he accepted the job as steward of our proud program, I have been nothing but proud of the group of guys Coach Wojo has assembled and coached. They represent us in a world class manner. I have no doubt our basketball product is about to match the elite status of the character of the guys representing the brand. If you think these are just good students with top notch character and nothing more, boy you are mistaken. These are hard-working and tough competitors of the highest order. With talent. We've seen them rise and then fall. I wouldn't bet against them.

Which is why I won't elaborate....maybe on my deathbed....but does no good now.  People in the know....know.  Those that are in denial or don't know can be pissed about that or stew forever for all I care.    I wish him well, glad he is gone.

We are in 100% agreement regarding the facts of all of those hires. As for Cords, he was a decent guy and the three coaches all probably appreciated more after they left. It was nice of the guys to send praise Cords way. I think Bill is a nice guy.

The quickness of the Buzz hire mirrored the Deane hire. Both of the hires were down by MU folks, with limited outside group help/support. I hated the Buzz hiring process to this day. Honestly, that is why I started the thread on Saturday regarding MU being prepared or not. They have log history of making knee jerk decisions.
Yeah Cords was OK. He canned Dukiet when he saw the writing on the wall.

You have literally scores of posts claiming wrongdoing - acting as if you "know" something you clearly don't. Among the lowest people on earth are those who tell you "I know something about so and so that would make your hair curl. I can't tell you what it is, but take my word for it, so and so is evil". Character assassination by innuendo - few things are more cowardly.

I know volumes more than you do no this, and there are other posters here as well.  The fact that irks you to no end is good enough for me.  There is no innuendo, he's gone and the university is better off for it.

I just have one question, chicos: Did you or did you not promise to reveal all about Buzz once he was gone?

I seem to remember that you did. If so, and if you don't want to be a liar, you should. Right here, right now.

If I am wrong about that, and you never did threaten/promise to reveal all ... okey dokey, I misremembered.

Maybe....I like my third place position in the pool right now here on Scoop...I like that I think the tournament is a crapshoot and so does Mark Few, Coach K, and others.  I like that judging a coach 4 to 5 years is appropriate, or calling the college game a guards game more than a decade ago.  But to each their own.   ;)

chicos, can you please take a break from patting yourself on the back to answer the question I asked a few posts ago? Thanks!

I don't recall making that specific promise....feel free to do the work since you are making the claim....I said other shoes would drop, that I did say.

Thanks for the answer. I am far too lazy to go surfing through years of Scoop threads to try to catch you in a fib.

But others aren't, so we'll see!

Have a good one.

You just got done saying my choking dogs post was deleted for me and I showed you it wasn't, it was changed by me but no one deleted it.   If someone wants to find what 82 thinks I might have said (he's not sure, benefit of the doubt to him), by all means have at it.  To my knowledge, not backpedaling.

That's fine, hopefully they are better at it than Adam.

Come clean or drop it. Buzz is long gone  so tell all or give it a rest.

I spoke with Cords shortly after the Wojo decision came down. He was very candid and up front. His words " We felt Cuonzo was running from something and We felt Wojo was running to something"
Yeah?  How was his body language?
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

I remember this clearly: you were going to spill the beans on the "Inside Bert's World"

So, either gather everyone around the fire and spill the beans in full lurid detail or shut up

I have no doubt that Jams does have info in regards to Buzz's dealings while at MU. He has said that he would share some of that info and I wish he would do so as well. My guess is that we will wait a long time for him to share anything of substance. That said, he is correct that an assistant was not fired over a free t-shirt and a ride home. Anyone that believes that, is trying hard to believe that.
