He does have a proven NBA pedigree...

So it sounds like he can recruit disciples

[Warriors4ever]

But we would be the only fan base who could truly believe that our coach walks on water.......

[Lennys Tap]

Because non-MU fans aren't so emotional about how the season ended and realize he has this program in a far better place than where it was when he took over.

I think you're confusing "team" with "program". The program Wojo inherited had won 7 NCAA tournament games in the previous 4 years. It was two years removed from a Big East title (when the Big East was the premier conference in the country). Our last 3 teams had gone 9-9, 14-4 and 14-4 in the conference. It had been to the tournament 8 times in the previous 9 years. He inherited the Al, an NBA arena (since updated) and a strong financial commitment from the university. Certainly he produced a better "team" this year than the one he inherited but I would argue that he has a long way to go to get the "program" back to where it was under Buzz (or even Crean).

I don’t know.  At best, MU82 will be agnostic towards this hire.  At worst, he will throw all his Marquette gear on his neighbor’s yard.

Damn thats funny, I love The Onion.

But he'll only use 12 scholarships at a time, until some transfers.  Only then will he add a 13th.

After Buzz and Crean, I don’t know if we want another coach with a God complex.

[Marcus92]

Tired: Wojo to VT.

Wired: Markus Howard, Sam Hauser, Joey Hauser, Sacar Anim, Theo John and Brendan Bailey all transferring to VT to follow the coach that recruited them.

Book it. From trusted sources.

[4everwarriors]

Not trying to play into this at all but Markus and Brendan were in Michigan City, Indiana this weekend. Not quite sure why and if anyone else was there.

Probably transferrin' ta Northwest Indiana State, aina?

[GOO]

So, I am not following, what would Michigan City or Gary have to do with any of this Wojo to VT stuff?  Please explain it to me.

Fair.

Jesus F. Christ, Doc, if our new JC has a better year than this past season's two JC's did, I'd happily wear gear emblazoned with Ted Neeley's photo. Better than the Golden Chicken, for sure.

Some plane registered to a VT booster flew from Gary IN to Roanoke, VA. A VT fan blog has convinced itself that the only reason that would happen is because the booster flew to Gary to pick up Wojo for an interview on VTs campus. Because if I'm a coach, I totally go with the school who makes me drive 2 to 3 hours though Chicago traffic to get to a private plane that could have picked me up 20 minutes from my house.

Ted Neeley reference! Even Jeopardy would find that obscure, even during its Tournament of Champions.

Solid. Made my day already MU82. ("Everything's alright, everything's fine . . .")

Once a year the team will get together to practice slapping five until their hands hurt.  It will be known as Palm Sunday.

Ba-dum-bum. Ching!

[Marcus92]

Tired: Buzz Williams to Texas A&M.

Wired: Buzz Williams to the Houston Rockets. Team owner Tilman Fertitta, who took over in 2017, has seen enough from head coach Mike D'Antonio to know he won't win an NBA title. And he sees one of the greatest basketball minds of his generation in Buzz.

I don't know how to love him ... what to do ... how to move him ...

[Marcus92]

Sources report that Mike Deane will come out of retirement to replace Wojo as the next head coach of the Marquette men's basketball program.

DePaul already rehired Lazarus and brought him back from the dead. Not sure a second miracle is in the offing for MU too.

Wojo would have managed better if he had a plan...

What's with Buzz? Tell me what's a-happenin'.

[NCMUFan]

A couple of questions:
Would VT pass the Coach K sniff test?  MU did.
Wouldn't Wojo want to prove himself before possibly jumping ship?
I like Wojo, but let's see, two years of no tournaments, one year of NIT and two years of NCAA 1st round exits.

[Marcus92]

This was probably the last place I'd expect to read a reference to Jesus Christ Superstar. Scoop never fails to amaze.

[WarriorDad]

Quite a bit of smoke about Wojo to Virginia Tech last 24 hours.  Unfortunate if this true.  Starting over again is not my idea of moving forward and making progress when we are already making progress with the current staff.
