Manning Returning for 2019-2020 - b/c basketball decision, obvi

Have on good authority that everyone will return, even Hoard. Jaylen likes being a student at WF and his sister is playing at WF this fall.

Of course, that can change but that was good to hear.

You may be right, but I highly doubt he comes back. Has Wake ever had a player enter the draft process and ultimately come back? Paul, JJ, Teague, Aminu, Crawford, Collins, Doral all did this and never came back, draft or no draft.
 
Clawson deserves better than being surrounded by all these fuckin' morons. I just hope he doesn't come to realize this
 
very first question:

Q: Was the buyout a part of the decision?
A: Danny’s continuation is based on our belief in him and his staff and the future of our program. Otherwise, we do not discuss contract details publicly.

It's shameful that Wake's alumni allow the administration to hide their incompetent decision making process behind this policy. This program needs transparency.
 
“I think that’s created chemistry with this team. This team is a fun group. We’re not where we want to be. For the first night of the first four, 10 of the guys were over at my house eating pizza and watching games. That hadn’t happened in the past, but this is a different group”

Exactly where we want to be in March, sitting around watching tv and eating pizza dreaming of getting back to the first four.
 
Is it realistic to think Currie might fire Manning after he gets the job in May? Seems like he wasn’t really involved in this and I don’t know why. If not, maybe he fires him during the season. Who knows at this point
 
so if it's true that Bz actually resigned and his wife hated being in WS... is it possible that the billboard and all the other fan-driven push to fire Bz actually worked? And taking a classier route this time around and assuming that Wellman isn't a complete idiot fucked the fans with another year of Manning?

You're welcome

Does he not realize how pathetic this sounds? He's back because the players like him enough to go to a pizza party at his house.

like the Godfather when Michael sends Carlo to Vegas, promising he wouldn't make a widow of his sister, then as soon as Carlo gets in the car Clemenza does the deed

No, it's not realistic at all, but holy SHIT would that be a Fuckin' A move by Currie. Like, one of the most awesome and cold-blooded things that's ever happened. Again, would never happen, but a boy can dream.

Eric Williams came back. JGray may have went through the draft process as well the same year.
 
They worked hard in practices is my all time favorite line in that talk.

It would really be a shame if Hoard ends up in Europe. Sure he could make good money there but he has a legit NBA skill set. Doesn’t seem like too many players bounce back to the NBA after going to Europe post college ball.

Wow, I missed that quote. Absolutely pathetic. The majority of the players on the team have no business playing in the ACC. This Mickey Mouse, Little League shit just doesn’t cut it at this level. Absolutely pathetic.
 
" I even paid for the pizza, thanks to the ridiculous contract I got from Wake Forest thanks to the man sitting beside me"

Posted this on another thread- Vanderbilt's new AD just fired Bryce Drew and his looking to move him to another position on campus rather than paying his buyout. Now that's a baller move.

This. Is. Mind-blowing. Is this a Danny or Wellman quote?
 
I bet Danny fucking expensed the pizza and soda for his NCAA watch party. Small time operation.

Actually, I envision Danny just snapping his fingers and Ron hurriedly fumbles for his checkbook
