Who’s the new Big Daddy (RIP) of the group that can get us some solid inside info?  I am of the thought that there is no way Wojo is let go with that buyout but I’m hopeful I’m wrong.  But we need some solid info one way or another so we can all move on.  Not just buyout speculation.

This is spot on. Every time someone states unequivocally that Wojo will not be fired, they offer no proof let alone evidence. Its true because they said it, right? Reminds me of someone on the national scene who has been doing just that for a number of years now. I get someone saying that he will probably not be fired, but there is still the possibility that he will be.

The next 5-10 days could get interesting. I'm hoping that a big donor or two will help with the buyout and rescue Marquette basketball from this nightmare coach.

Ask poster Bad Reporter....
He has stated on numerous occasions, most recently yesterday, that Wojo is gone and is looking for $1,000 bets.

At least its not so bad that we are now calling our team:

"The Spartans brought to you by Rocket Mortgage."

There are many things that could be done to convenience wojo to leave MU. Cut his budget to near zero would be a good start.

I like the dead-hooker-in-the-hotel-room idea that someone threw out there.
The shaka sign, sometimes known as "hang loose", is a gesture of friendly intent often associated with Hawaii and surf culture.

If you want to slum down to an AutoZone, Bo Ryan can help out.

I think the official title of Xavier's basketball coach comes close:

"The Sedler Family Men’s Head Basketball Coach Travis Steele"

Oh man, what was the rumor with that again?  He hired somebody to kill a guy at an AutoZone or something?

Michigan football has a sponsor for just about every coaching position, I believe

I don't think it get interesting at all. MU is in a fiscally bad spot right now. Do you really think Lovell, who has implemented austerity campus wide, want the optics of buying out Wojo. Not a chance.

It’s not really news Bo Ryan killed.  He’s been feasting at night for a millennium at least

That's an interesting way to look at it.  What's the trend?

In my 50+ years of attending MU basketball I have never been more disgusted! Wojo is a nice guy, represents the university well and recruits great kids!! Yet he could be the worst coach for the past 50+ years. Bob Dukiet era was bad but he had zero talent...Wojo has talent. It will be very difficult for Marquette to move on and eat his extended contract but something has to change in coaches.
I disagree with the talent part.  Of the power 6 conference teams we players only UW and Butler were less athletic and we were 3-0 against them.
