Virginia Tech Fans

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.

The order of operations does matter.

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.

While the timing is not ideal we’d have to let it play out before knowing whether this was a set back or a blessing in disguise. There are upgrades to Wojo in terms of ability to coach.

A key question is whether the smoke is white or black ?

You and I have different definitions of smoke

[wadesworld]

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.

He was already hiding in the Michigan City, IN bunker knowing him, Markus, and Bailey were gowne.

But isn't all the "smoke" coming from one source ... some guy that thinks Marquette is a stone's throw from the Gary Indiana airport?

Without that, what else do we have?  It's all a circle jerk back to this post.

No, there are other VT people(completely separate from flightaware watch), that are saying similar things. It is not all based on this.

I just can't imagine Wojo wanting to be known as the guy that takes the jobs  Buzz Williams doesn't want anymore.

I just can’t imagine being known as the school that develops VT’s future coaches.

Are you referring to the VT blogger who called Mick Cronin "Mark Cronin" and couldn't even spell Gregg Marshall correctly?
Is that your "other VT people"?

Thank you.  Know I get it and I'm less concerned that we lose Wojo.

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

Yeah, and from Nads, of all people. Only in America, aina?

Well we're already the school that develops Iowa states future players may as well extend that to coaches too

[genious expert]

Correct. There’s literally no smoke other than some guy going off the rails tracking flights across the midwest. And the VT fans are playing a game of telephone and somehow coming to the conclusion that Wojo to VT is a #donedeal

I've been following this more closely than I care to admit, and there seems to be no smoke that does not originate with the SportsWar flight tracker guy.  Almost every new article or tweet points back to this rumor.  There have been mentions that, should Buzz leave, Wojo is on a list of coaches they are or could be interested in, but those have mostly died down since Saturday.  The really interesting thing is that there is no tracking of Buzz's movements.  Wouldn't that be the best way to show that your coach is leaving?

One thing I am curious about is Wojo's suspension of his twitter account.  I have assumed that it is because of all of the vitriol fans were tweeting at him regarding the end of season/NCAA losses.  I wouldn't want to read that crap either.  But maybe he is looking.  We'll know when we know.

Wojo was in Milwaukee filming Inside Marquette Basketball yesterday. Can't believe people there is anything to these rumors.

The Markus rumors on the other hand...

You do realize him filming that means nothing right?? I mean until you are officially announced somewhere else, you are still the Coach at your current institution and have the same obligations as you have always had.

1. Not true. If MU knew he was leaving he wouldn't be filming anything. Nor should he.

2. My main point is he was in Milwaukee. Not anywhere else. Which disproves all of the "flight tracka" stuff.

He easily could've hopped on the flight back to milwaukee after the flight to gary dropped off his family. I mean come on that's only logical

No one knows he's leaving.  Buzz hasn't even signed his A&M deal yet.  Really it doesn't indicate anything.

And as for #2, coaches don't really travel to interview for jobs like the rest of us schlubs.  They don't even step foot on campus until something is announced.

No one knows he's leaving? Do you think Wojo is the type of guy to keep MU in the dark?

[cheebs09]

I feel like it’s more likely a GE Healthcare person using that plane rather than Wojo.

They taped the show yesterday. Buzz is still at VT. Wojo might be having preliminary conversations at most. None of that prevents him from doing his job here.

Well,  Marquette is in Michigan, which is close to Gary
