Brad Stevens looks like a nerd

It's going to sting even worse if/when NCSU and Debbie Yow make a great hire for the Wuffies.

I just feel like Wake Forest basketball is dead.

The fall of Wake sports from the "golden era" circa 2006 to now is rivaled only by the fall from grace of one Ron Wellman from 2006 to present.

yea this blows, considering I entered Wake Forest in 2006. Suffice it to say that I'm becoming particularly jaded at this point.

I have heard a lot about the [Redacted] hiring and at no point have I heard anything about Chris Mooney. This does not mean he was not pursued, but if he was it was close to the vest.

The names I have heard (in this order) are Stevens, Smith, Brownell. Stevens turned the job down. We did not have enough money to hire Tubby. Brownell and Wellman were unable to reach a contract agreement with the assistant issue, and Wellman panicked and called Jeff.

I cannot confirm this is 100% true, but I'm very close to the situation.

If this means that we could've had Brownell but that Wellman wouldn't budge on his insistence that Brownell take on Dino's assistants, then I think I'm going to kill someone.

I was telling my wife last night that GT and NCSU could well make great hires with young, energetic, exciting coaches and I will be even more depressed about the future of WFU basketball.

True Stack! And don't forget socks, names not on the uniforms and if the latest is true, our guys will eat steaks properly. :thumbsup:

Taking the names off the back will result in atleast 4-6 more wins. Guaranteed.

I know [Redacted] mentioned it, but are they definitely doing this? I like having the names on the back.

Was money an issue with Stevens? Could we have gotten him if we offered more?
