Ain't played nobody, PAWL!
I think the CW was generally either Currie or Buddie.
Not sure there was anyone else in the list short of both saying no.

I’ve said several times that reality or not, the perception is Currie botched this and he’ll be remembered that way.
Does anyone outside of Knoxville (or numbers) remember him this way? Does anyone outside of Kansas, Tennessee or North Carolina even know who he is? I don't think that perception but what I think is a very limited, and isolated, segment is going to influence basketball coaches that we are interested in hiring. His primary goal early is to find the best basketball coach possible. The most relevant prior experience is his hire at K State. That is what people will reference.
Matta isn't going to come in giddy as fuck to take over Wake and then shake Currie's hand and go, "Wait, are you that guy that fucked up the Schiano hiring? Barbara, get your coat."
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Wake Forest needs an AD with more testicles than Ron Wellman, not less.
I disagree with the concept that he fucked up the Schiano hiring. His superiors overruled him. Schiano would be winning now. But whatever moving forward.
Greg Schiano will go down as one of the most important guys in WF sports history. Let’s seize on this opportunity and get behind JC.
Check out twitter today for the perception on Currie. It’s still a good hire for us at this stage given what’s gone on with the AD overall but the only real reason anyone knows who he is outside of Kansas, Tennessee, and NC is because of the very public Tennessee football debacle.
And Tennessee instead hired Jeremy fucking Pruitt. Tennessee football blows and is a thing of the past.

Yup. The Vols' fanbase views on Dave Clawson should be enough of a reminder that what is a good hire and good fit for Wake doesn't match well with perceptions in TN
As someone who gives drew a lot of shit, I’m impressed that he called this one.
