FUCK YOU, RON WELLMAN

I’m not responding to the troll but taking the opportunity to say the billboards were the most entertaining wfu basketball related event since Mr. Wellman fired Dino Gaudino.

Sure, out of control fires are always so entertaining aren't they? This is why no one else bothers to offer a differing opinion on here anymore.

Think some of the things done by the fanbase are uncalled for? You must be a troll or parody.

Want the team to still win? You must be an AD shill. What's wrong with you?
 
That's my main point. Ron Wellman being responsible for everything that is wrong at Wake Forest is the biggest strawman argument of them all.

Not everything. Just what’s wrong with the athletics he directed.

The fact that he was able to do what he did to the basketball program over the last decade without any push back speaks to a huge problem with the school.

Agreed. I still have the newspaper ads that were ran during that time too.
 
*sigh*

Okay then. When we start to be good again in a few years, you might want to just stay away. After all, some of Danny Manning’s recruits might be on the team, and you’ve sworn off affiliating with that disaster. Also, they may be using facilities that Mr Wellman worked to get us during his tenure, so there’s another conflict for you there too. Nah, just give the Deacs a break for the next 10-20 years. We got it from here.

hahaha just keep on sighing you stooge. I have no conflict of conscience when it comes to my loathing of Wellman and the stooges in the "donor class" who have stood by idly and allowed these circumstances to take shape and suck us down into the abyss of irrelevance and anemic mediocrity. Hell, we are an insult to the word mediocrity since John Collins left and even then, we were a highly flawed team that did not improve at all defensively throughout the season.

But I digress, I've earned the right to have this opinion between my family's and my own personal investment in tuition, post-graduate support of the athletic program (countless games, road trips on account of my love of the Deacs) and there is no issue at all with reconciling my disdain for this current state of affairs and my eventual return to the fold, so to speak, should things ever turn around. I'm not going to be a complicit party to this continued malfeasance and lack of accountability in our AD. So you can take your "holier than thou" \ I'm a better fan schtick and cram it till it hurts buddy!
 
But he had nothing to do with the Clawson hire, right?

Dude, get the fuck out of here. Ron Wellman is one of the shittiest people I've ever been forced to continuously listen to in my life. He is the Wake Forest equivalent of Donald Trump. I hate him with a burning passion, and I hope the rest of his life is miserable and tormented.

I assume you are either a family friend or a relation to that pile of shit. So here's to hoping that you relay my sentiments to that poxfaced bastard at Thanksgiving dinner. Now kindly fuck off.
 
I'm pretty sure that Mike Buddie did most of the heavy lifting on the Clawson hire, which was kind of baffling in the first place.

Fuckin A
 
So he hired a good football coach, or at least didn't fuck it up, yet he continued to retain a coach clearly in over his head for at least two seasons too many. So there is some degree of competence there (based on success of Wakes other non revenue teams too) which only makes his refusal to address this huge mistake even more maddening / egregious. Id almost rather have him be terrible across the board so we could blame that than his holier than though ego.

I was sitting in the football recruit section when he rolled in on the harley and a player asked me why people booed. When I explained the 17 YO said "oh, that makes a lot of sense".

Ron Wellman is only part of the problem. Nathan Hatch is also part of the problem. Neither are the real problem.

The real problem is you and the other Deacs that not only tolerate mediocrity but encourage those who have destroyed the program, razed it to the ground, and then salted the fields.

This problem only exists because there are enough people that matter who are okay with it.
 
Biff can ctd89 be relegated to only posting in the F U ronnie wellman thread?
