Does anyone have the stats on the top 6 scorers handy? I am curious on the spread and why they said top 6 versus top 3, etc.

Take a breather everyone. This is a good segment - maybe not exactly what we want but plenty of material and read between the lines from Odom. However, I would not have stated the return of 5 out of 6 leading scorers as a positive sign of a program recovery...the best of the worst is still...

This is true and I highly recommend reading this article (all of it) to provide some color from another university that encountered this change. Recommending "all" because the 2nd page is priceless...

I am only mid-way through Season 2, but if Wake Forest became the Game of Thrones, what would it look like? Who would the characters be? Jamie Lannister "KingSlayer" = Ron Wellman "ProgramSlayer"

Wellman is the ProgramSlayer.

Sweetness.

It is the Year of the Snake in China so he may fit better there.

Yep, we don't even look for gems anymore and develop them. No more Timmy's. It looks like they will lose this game, but Marshall and his players did a hell of a job.

Wellman..."Wichita State has a lot of tattoos. Not the Wake Forest Way. Bzzz is doing a great job not recruiting these guys." What a douche.

And Bzzz has none of Shockers' coach traits and it does not help when spouse asks if the black and "gold" on court is Wake Forest. This is pain at its finest. Bzzz - this is how you EARN loyalty and respect...

RW is a racist, a bigot, and a homophobe. This should NOT be new news. Racist - his culture talk, anti-rap, and anti-tattoo unfairly discriminate against a certain group of people. Bigot - hello fan base - this is directed to us. He cares only about his own opinions not facts. Homophobe -...

We would not let them in the hockey house. They got pissed and stormed the house. There were over 10 police cars. Everyone ran. The freshman were caught and tackled by the cops. It was a hard tackle so they had to go to the hospital (they had open bloody gashes) and then they were arrested...

I want to see if we have progress on our initiatives first. If we don't, I'll hammer this point in far more detail in the fall in a separate thread. I don't want message diversification to dilute the main message. We need basketball to succeed first - it helps keep the non-revenue producing...

I will give you as much as I can, but media will focus on basketball - that is the bigger message that will generate change. Hockey is another example along with baseball as supporting evidence. Don't forget baseball. Hockey was threatened with the cancellation of an ENTIRE SEASON and instead...

No - definitely not. Why do you think I am so pissed. I thought hockey was a one-off case, but now that I see what is happening with the basketball program, I think that he has a systematic pattern of destroying championship programs. Why? Who knows...jealousy, put in his own people...
