Fluff

Interesting that someone had posts removed and a thread locked and returned to the same topic? I agree.

You know Fluff, the old fence sitter.  Never a strong opinion either way.  Lesser men would call him "milk toast", but he hasn't taken a side on sliced bread.

As for 1 ball, the dude has 8000+ posts and no one remembers his old user name.  Irrelevance defined.

Crean doesn’t particularly stand out as an analyst, but he’s a salesman and has the gift of gab, so he’ll have a Lavin-esque career in tv, I think.

Wojo, on the other hand, is awful.  He likely signed a one year contract and that’s the only reason the network is still running him out there this late in the season.  Shaka’s press conferences are a revelation after 7 years of watching Wojo sweat and mumble his way through media availability while snipping at reporters and making every excuse in the book as to why the team wasn’t winning.  Boy, did he ever suck as Marquette’s coach!

After having a thread locked down last week over your post over the dentists, I seriously cannot believe you would double down on the "dentist". Frickin joke.
Your need to act as the Scoop Hall Monitor is quite something.

In retrospect, I am wondering if he has a career playing piano?

Thanks to Coach Crean for bringing Diener, Wade, Novak & the 3 Amigos to MU. The Final 4 run. Positioning us for a move to the BIG EAST that continues to pay off to this day. For making peace with the university and continuing to be an advocate for Marquette.

Thanks to Coach Wojo for accepting the buyout and beginning a new life as a hot yoga enthusiast in Utah.

I agree with this analysis.

I moved on from the Wojo era the day he was let go. Really have no feelings about him and grateful MU pulled the trigger and relieved him of duties. Even more grateful for the hire they made.

This.  'Nuff said.

Back to Big East Tournament anticipation.

The host asked about their greatest Conference Tournament achievement.

Crean said losing to UAB to give them time to regroup and start their Final 4 run in 2003.

Wojo said ‘watching’ JJ Reddick explode on the scene as a freshman and win the ACC Conference Tournament.

How embarrassing!!!  Lol

That's pretty pathetic but not at all surprising.

If Tom Crean is named AD after Scholl retires, I'm good for it. 

If he wanted to be our Barry with a strong staff of lieutenants around him, I think he would be great.

No thanks. Barry wasn't very good and my guess is Tom wouldn't be either.

Teal? I mean the guy oversaw WI for 2 final fours, 4 rose bowls, a hockey championship and runner up, 2 WVB runner ups and a championship.

Idk about the rest of WI sports but I'd happily take that type of performance under any admin whether they're an a$$ or not

Barry's hoops team when to 2 Final Fours, he just hired Luke Fickel and his football team has three four Rose Bowls since he left the sidelines. 

AD's are fundraisers and heads of state for big state dinners.  MU has some very good people "under" Scholl.  They can keep the train on the tracks while Tom shakes some trees for cash.

Barry didn't hire Luke Fickell.  Chris McIntosh has been AD for over a year.  Nor did he hire Bo Ryan.

Barry wasn't very good. Believe me they were behind in A LOT of areas when he left and McIntosh has been playing catch up since.  The model you are talking about, where you can slot a former coach in just to raise money, went out of style about two decades ago.  Hire a professional AD, who runs a competent and contemporary athletic department, and the money will follow.

If you believe that Luke Fickel got to UW without Barry Alvarez...

LOL.  Luke Fickell got to UW without Barry Alvarez.  It was McIntosh working with the football booster whose name escapes me that got him to Madison. Barry's been unplugged and sitting down in Naples since he left.

My overall point is that when Scholl retires, they should be in a great place to hire a competent athletic director from another institution. IMO you have an alumnus at Loyola Marymount who is very highly regarded, with a great background at multiple institutions.

Sultan is right.

Barry was also involved in the Bo massage scandal, both were banging the same woman or something.   Can't remember exactly.

McIntosh has full control over UW athletics.

Yup.  McIntosh has the moneyed interests in his pocket at the moment.  It’d be better for Badger hating if Barry was still around to be honest
