I could not get the link to attach

But, JS just posted a piece about mu
and the problems WOJO is having

I'm sure Lovell and Scholl were just hoping no one would notice how bad things are.  Guess that's not working out too well

LOL

Starting to feel kinda bad for the guy on a personal level, but a change is so obviously needed on all sides. I hope he can get himself a soft parachute landing like Ricky P Jr. and wish him the best of luck in his career.

I felt bad for him for about a second and then realized he's probably made close to $10 million during his time at MU. I stopped feeling bad very quickly.

[JimsTimeOutFan]

I also feel kinda bad for him.  I didn't love that billboard for that reason. Public shaming is probably not necessary. Admin should take mercy on him and end it! then again, why feel bad for someone who is going to likely earn more than most Americans do in a year to not coach a sport....On a personal level i wish him no ill will

[GoldenWarrior11]

Frankly, I'd be surprised if Wojo lasts the weekend.  I'm sure they are internally discussing a way of cordially separating, however that looks like.  Perhaps a mutual parting of ways, where Wojo accepts a reduced buyout.  He gets a nice parachute, the school is off the hook for for money that it thought it would, and the school can be free to hire a new head coach and staff (maybe even backload it to offset the upfront cost of paying for a buyout). 

Still sad.  MUBB should never have come to this point.  But we have, and now changes need to be made.

I think you meant "a lifetime".  Or multiple lifetimes, if his buyout's $6 million.

Why in the world would Wojo do that?

[CountryRoads]

At this point, I feel bad for Wojo as there is nothing that he can do about it. The ball is in the Admin's court. They either need to fire Wojo or come out and publicly support him (at which point the anger can be directed toward them).

I would be surprised. What reason would Wojo have to take less money? He's got a contract and seems willing to coach for MU. Unless he really wants out, I see him trying to win next year and use that for a better job to stick it to fans on the way out.

These guys aren't wired like that.  That would be akin to quitting

No chance Marquette fires Wojo without having a coach lined up.  Zero.  So it won't be for a few weeks if it happens.... unless the replacement is available earlier.

Wait did someone make a fire wojo billboard? 

[Mu8891]

I would ( almost ) feel bad for him
Except for the MILLIONS of dollars

I really think the Admin was / is clueless.

But now it's all out in the open.  No
One ( except Dodds ) buys the Covid
Excuse

Lots of other P6 schools are firing guys and moving on ... the coaching carousel is on full steam

( TJ leaves UNLV to go to ISU ... so now UNLV is open )
Indiana... MINN ... BC... etc etc

How can this possibly end well ?

A ringing endorsement for Wardle!

Your assuming this athletic department actually cares

Ding ding ding. Plus Lovell really likes Wojo. Their tenures are likely tied together.

[Uncle Rico]

If you like terrible basketball and even worse offense, you can't do much worse than BW

[panda]

They had a really tough year...Although they didn't say it would be tough until after the season when they fell short of every pre season metric set out.

And they wouldn't be complaining about the tough year if they actually played well....

But they had a really tough year and it definitely doesn't count.

Is that why you continue to excuse Wojo-Dukiets mediocrity? Fear of another usurping the power of your King?

I don't.  Brian Wardle is not a good coach.  Replacing one bad coach with another one is pretty stupid
