Official Hoops Coaching Search Thread - Welcome Danny Manning!!!

Seems pretty damn confident. Don't know the guy but to say he's been saying it all day and that he's the source. Someone def told him. Wow to Marquette for pulling this off with no ad and no prez if true.

Makes you wonder what we could do without our overpaid AD and pres....

I'd wait on Goodman or Borzello or Parrish etc. This would be a huge story so they should be on top of it.

agree

 

[deacondamo]

Wonder what our final offer was. Buzz to VT really fucked us.

 

[CumberlandDeac]

I'd be more inclined to believe this guy if he actually wrote a story on it.

 

[LilburnDeac]

I am away from the boards for a couple of hours. Left thinking that we had missed out on Shaka, got back and found new hope, and then in less than 20 minutes those hopes are shattered. Please end this madness!!!!!

Jim Ganzer ‏@theIWB 11m
@joshlepak I tweeted it this morning and updated my subscribers all day. Never backed down, told readers don't believe 5:00 rumors too,

He seems awfully defensive in his twitter stance offering up reasons why he was so confident. Good journalists have solid sources and a quiet confidence that doesn't need ego stroking. I'm a bit dubious. I'll wait for one of the "bigs" to confirm.

Those who know say we pay an incredibly small amount on administration (athletic and otherwise) than other institutions.

Guys. Chill. This Ganzer guy said the same thing 6 hours ago. Then that was shown to be bullshit, and everyone freaks out when he says the same shit again. With no new info?

I am told that nothing has changed from earlier today on the Shaka Smart situation. #mubb

I meant overpaid based on performance.

 

[Deacsfan27]

I won't believe it until Goodman tweets it.

 

[Fuck Your Couch]

Goodman currently breaking/confirming Kelvin Sampson to Houston.

This is fun.

Ryan Nobles ‏@ryanobles 5m
Just talked to @pipspicks at @Fox6Now in Milwaukee. His sources are confident that #ShakaSmart is on the verge of becoming HC at Marquette.

Ryan Nobles ‏@ryanobles 4m
Should preface @Fox6Now report.. neither school has independently confirmed #ShakaSmart to Marquette story. We continue to ask.

And what does "I am the source" mean? Shit, is he Shaka Smart himself? Or the lawyer writing the contract?

And people wonder why twitter gets a bad name...well, this and stupid people only interested in porn.

 

[wakelaw13]

And his followers have steadily gone up. In case you were wondering about motivation
