I've thought about it, and I am now comfortable with the notion that Ron Wellman is the real-life Rachel Phelps. She wanted the Indians to finish dead last so she could move the team to Miami, get out of Cleveland, get a new stadium, and a free membership to the Palm Beach Polo Club. If Wellman can drive down basketball-related revenues enough, Wake can afford to buy the Joel cheaper than we could have hoped to do while we were actually good. All he has to do is hire a functional retard as the basketball coach, run off all the players, and watch attendance plummet.
Coming soon to a Wake radio broadcast near you (sub in Stan Cotton for Harry Doyle):
