Pretty sure someone stated that the "insider forums" like IWB and Dodds have indicated they get less access than when Buzz was around.


Not sure that was entirely Wojo's doing.  I think that was more about the athletic department's reaction to #donedeal.

Gotcha. Just was trying to shed some light on that perception.

This is what I was referring to.  Brew alluded to it in a thread a while back.

I'm pretty sure that's just Wojo's general policy and has  run things that way since he got here. I don't think that matches with the statement of "he's not afraid to cut off access to his program" which implied that he as maliciously cutting off access in response to criticism.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

The Milwaukee Journal Sports section is a shell of its former self.  Steele and Potrykus can’t afford to burn bridges.  It’s as simple as that.  Editors don’t care

For all of the ridiculous talk that the UNC game saved his job (totally disagree with the fact it had any impact), losing tonight will probably move the needle.
"All the ridiculous talk" didn't exist. No one said it saved his job.

Hopefully you and silent verbal got a package deal on that strawman.

It did from several posters.

The wonderful thing about this site is that you can look back through my posts and actually see in real time when I said how ridiculous that talk was. I’d suggest you do that before saying anything about me in the future.

I'm not gonna go through posts because I don't want to waste the time, but there were at least a few Scoopers who seemed to think Wojo was quite possibly gone after the Seton Hall loss, got new life after the Butler win, got his job saved by the UNC win, but could be in trouble again after the UConn loss, and very well will get the boot if we lose again to DePaul.

They seem to think that Lovell, Scholl and BOT members haven't already made up their minds and actually are judging Wojo game-by-game. And these fine fans say that anybody who has the temerity to root for Marquette to win any game is guilty of accepting mediocrity and of accepting having Wojo as coach forever no matter how shytty things get.

It's such a fun, albeit clueless, narrative.

If he was being judged on a game by game basis he’d be gone already.  They will keep him another year because they suck and don’t have the will or motivation to truly rectify the program’s situation.  Or pit us in this position in the first place.

Due to the wonderfulness of the site, I was able to look back through your posts to before the UNC game even got scheduled and couldn't find a single instance of you saying how ridiculous that talk was.

Now, it is possible I missed it, and if so I'm sure you can correct me. But I suspect the lack of such posts was because no one seriously posted that the UNC game saved Wojo's job.

I don’t think that.  I do think he’s lazy and mails it in and wouldn’t know how to report news that isn’t spoon fed him by the athletic department

Wojo needs Mike Deane as an assistant on the bench?
If Mike Deane was an assistant the way this team plays defense, we'd be out of timeouts before the first commercial timeout!
