How 'bout Buzz going to TAMU, baby?

Nice try turning this thread back.

This is correct.  What Strong et al were doing was not illegal, but they did not disclose to stakeholders that they were doing it.   That is how they got dinged.  Other funds doing the same thing (after-hours market-timing arbitrage) that had disclosed their practices were let off the hook becuase they were transparent about what they were doing.  Normally this sort of violation would have resulted in a slap on the wrist for String Funds but opportunistic Spitzer was out for blood.

I'm certain Strong didn't do any afterhours trading. That was the 2 other named firms that Spitzer went after. Canary capital was the primary issue. And Dick doing some unwise personal trades with his own money in the funds.

Teams like to announce big name hires during FF weekend. Buzz will get a lot of air time as the new A&M coach this weekend.

Buzz will be great at TAMU. I also wouldn't be surprised if he ends up getting seriously paid by KU if/when Self ever gets pinched by the NCAA. I believe others have said it, but this is not BW's last big pay day.

Now Buzz has become a political lightning rod.  Blue state Virginia has to stop red state Texas from stealing Buzz with "dirty" oil money.

By Alex Miller , Texas A&M blogger Contact Alex Miller on Twitter: @AlexMill20 There's been soft buzz about Texas A&M hiring Virginia Tech's Buzz Williams to be the Aggies' next head basketball coach over the weekend, which has given Hokie fans time to try and keep their head man. One Virginia Tech fan has started a GoFundMe titled "Keep Buzz in Blacksburg …

Blue State Virginia?  My guess is you don't spend a lot of time in Blacksburg or the surrounding areas.  I go there about once a month these days.  Not exactly a bastion of blue or red there.

I really don’t get Buzz Williams’s career path. Went from Marquette, to Virginia Tech, to now Texas A&M. It feels like these are downgrades at every step. Marquette is a much better basketball program than the other two.

He still hasn't changed the color scheme at coachbuzzwilliams.com, but I'm sure it's coming soon.  Any bets on whether that happens before or after the official announcement?

I’m really hoping VT’s article announcing Buzz’s departure includes a picture of Scott Monarch. Would be nice to end the relationship the way it started.

Get ready for the usual Buzz stories:

- ## days on the job
- Going to Final Four with no money looking for a job
- Writing X letters each day
- Naming all Presidents
- "Buzzing" around as a student assistant

Time for us to accept that the new Big East isn’t all that respected. Sure it’s a cute little basketball conference but definitely well behind the big 4. VaTech is bottom of barrel job in ACC and is on Verge of poaching two big east coaches.
