5 pm press conference

that's the fucking problem. He's from the school where you ignore issues and hope they go away and work behind the scenes but avoid honesty at all costs. Enron and shit

One thing is for sure: not a damn thing Wellman or [Redacted] has said in public in the last two months was the least bit true.

Article from Scott Hamilton... The headline says it all.
 
Well that was the fucking weirdest thing I have ever seen.
 
Sorry if it's been mentioned, but it's unfair/irresponsible to use Green the way Wellman has been since he was injured. I don't want to insult Green, but at the risk of doing so, he wasn't projected to be the next Duncan. Why keep stacking more pressure on Green in the presser?

I don't want to believe that Wellman is doing it to be covered both ways. By that I mean it's like Wellman implies that "if we had a healthy Green we wouldn't be here because [Redacted] would have won enough to get an extension," and then time passes, Green plays and doesn't prove to be a game-changer, and Wellman says "well, he had a career-altering injury... imagine what it could have been."

I'm not saying Green can't be that guy, but why does Wellman have to go to the extent that he did in this presser and other interviews in the past. I don't want to believe it's a weak CYA measure, but I can't argue anything else.

Well, when something is obvious.... it is obvious.

Nearly hour-long meeting? Didn't Wellman present it implying that it took as long as the civil rights movement or am I wrong?

Nah, that timeline was established by Wellman in his presser today.


Of course, the decision was made weeks ago, but lets just go with what Wellman said today... that was an hour long discussion before the team meeting was called.

Me too. I swear, he was not that much of a dickhead when I was at Wake. Even if he did always confuse me with other guys on the team.
 
well, it sounds like we've got years' worth of board memes if wellman screws up this hire.

I stand corrected.
 
Ron told a bunch of tall tales when he introduced Bz four years ago. This performance shows he still hasn't learned his lesson. We know he is lying and it is unbecoming and upsetting on so many levels. He is supposed to be a role model. Shame on you Ron. Please retire.
 
I like Ron Wellman. I am unabashedly WellmanIn. . .but there was a lot of bullshit being slung at Deacon Tower today. Why has Ron gotten to the point where he can't fire anyone? Yesterday. . .fucking yesterday. . .[Redacted] was telling Dan that the was pressing forward. Today he resigns. Bullshit! Why can't he just say, "We love Jeff [Redacted], but winning is part of the mix and we just have not done enough of that these past four years and we had to make a change." Why can't he say, " Attendance has been way down and we just can't afford to be patient any longer?"

Ron. . .you are assaulting our intelligence, man.

Exactly. You beat me to it. Why can't the man fess up? Let the fans know he was wrong? That Buzz wasn't the guy to lead the program? That though we "want to do things the right way," winning is just as important? Fuck you, Ron. We're at least as intelligent as you. Man up.
