What do Kam Jones and Joey Hauser have in common?

[5DollarPitcher]

Oh Mrs. Hauser, stop reading Scoop.

I'm Mrs Hauser because I think it's cringe that, 4 years later, we still have fans obsessing over this kid's every move, taking some sick joy in his poor play?

Even I mostly gave it up on hammering Wojo now that he's long gone, but look at you - a true embarrassment.

[5DollarPitcher]

This post by you is disinformation and taken out of context to make yourself look better. Classic.

Surprised you didn't mention how that post was wojos fault half way through.
I can go through threads that don't have anything to do with our past coach and you bring him up all the time man.

But then back up your emotional dump truck whenever someone says something about two players who quit on the team.

The stevens point boys quit on the team... Wojo at least was still trying to win the games. Maybe not the way you wanted 5$Bitcher... but he didn't quit on the team.

Was he a good coach? Most likely not... and was rightfully fired. But he didn't quit on the team.

This is borderline lunacy

[fjm]

This is borderline lunacy

Which part?

[5DollarPitcher]

Which part?

The defending yourself shi**ing on a kid that hasn't been associated with the program for almost half a decade part.  That part.  Move on.

You quoted all my stuff and said it was borderline lunacy. And the only part was me saying they quit on the team and the coach didn't?

That's a pretty low standard for "borderline lunacy".

You need to work on your definitions.

I don't care who quit and who didn't.  They lost and they're all gone now.  They were all bad for the program.  Move along instead of acting like a jilted lover that's irreparably damaged.

You look beautiful today, Mrs. Hauser.

I do appreciate that sentiment.
If you don't care. Then why do you still always bring up Wojo tirelessly?

Go check my history since he's actually been fired and the subsequent offseason when the program has moved on.  I haven't except where it may be relevant in discussing the current state of the program.

I also get particularly bothered that we create THREADS dedicated to this irrelevancy nearly 5 years later.  When's the last Wojo thread you've seen?  Meanwhile, we have a 50+ pager going in Superbar tracking these guys' every move.  It's a different level of obsession.

No, maybe by you.

They both ended up with great coaches.

Dude we had a shitty coach, people adjusted.  The Hausers adjusted a little before we did. Say thanks to the blog boys. 

It's hilarious and pathetic to me that y'all think it's cool for us to bail on Steve in 2021 but it's terrible that Steph and Dave bailed in 2019.  It's hypocritical and it's goes against what we are as a program.  They didn't leave, they turned the light on.  Build em a freaking statue.

Izzo definitely has had a great coaching career, but ...

Since Hauser started playing for the Hall of Fame coach in the 2020-21 season, Izzo has a .617 overall winning percentage and .522 in the Big Ten. Before that season, Izzo's winning percentage was .723 overall and .696 in the conference. ... Sparty won the conference title the 3 years before Hauser arrived; in Hauser's first two seasons they finished 8th and 7th (we'll see where they land this year). ... Sparty reached the Final Four in the last pre-Hauser tournament. Hauser had 5 points and was benched in last year's NCAAT loss to Duke.

But there's still time, and maybe they'll find glory together before this season is over.

I am a fan of both.    Now.

This is a thread posting a blog about the state of the Shaka-led program that devolved into discussion / debate about previous coaches, including Wojo.

This thread is nothing like the obsessed schadenfraude you see with the Hauser threads.

Those are facts.

Process them any way you'd like, Mr. I'll Die on the Hill of Houston being "far and away the best team in the country."

I'd rather die on that hill than constantly post facts about a kid who hasn't played at Marquette since before the pandemic started.

Seems strange to constantly visit threads dedicated to subjects you have no interest in, but you do you!

The interest is the embarrassment you provide by bathing in the minutia of a kid's career who transferred from the program 5 years ago.

Joey's a sexpot. What else is there?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Honestly overall I have seen a lot more post obsessively praising the Hausers than crapping on them until recently.  This season the Hauser worshippers have started to teeter off and there detractors have continued on.

Both sides are weird to me, I don't get either one
