It is disturbing how our Athletic Department and key members of the BOT have developed an "us vs. them" mentality between their faith in Wellman/Bz vs. the 99% of the fans who are up in arms over the current situation. Ron Wellman in his decision and unwavering support of Buzz has alienated a small but extremely faithful and dedicated fanbase that need to be united for Wake Forest to thrive. It is devastating to our great fans when the AD's response is to blow off and question the decency of fans who demand success over whatever platitudes and plans are driving Bz's tenure at Wake Forest.
When the fans speak out, LISTEN to their concerns. We are smart people who understand the reality of the awful situation that was brought about by an extremely questionable buddy hire under the oddest of circumstances. The results have confirmed everybody's worst fears about Bz, Wellman, and the direction of our program. If Wellman has a presser and fully supports/brings Bz back and rips into the fans who haven't given him a chance and supported the school (which is a very strong possibility), expect most of the fans to just give up on you. You can't run a program where your biggest supporters are ready to tear you to shreds over your downright awful hire and refusal to address their concerns. Own up to the reality and address it in a meaningful way. The way our AD is run like a fiefdom is an absolute joke and the fans deserve better.
