Screw this thread. And screw you, simonn.
Before, we all blamed Fowler. Like, he shouldn't have handled the search publicly, and really, he shouldn't have. It was humiliating. But now Yow is taking it private, and the media are still there to get us. They get us the way they always have. They never suffer any consequences for what they say, and they've been allowed to do it for so long that everybody thinks it's normal and right. It's not normal and right. It's just hegemony.
Also, I've never in all my life heard somebody worth anything call Valvano a dirty coach. He had his flaws, and we all know them, but even Dean Smith and Coach K strongly defended him when he came under those bullshit attacks. Were you raised a Chapel Hill fan, simonn? What is wrong with you? And what is wrong with the rest of you for not saying anything?
Is anybody paying attention? We've been publicly rejected by two coaches already by way of Miller's dad and Seth Davis' Twitter account. Why did Yow even bother to do this privately? I mean, they're always gonna bash us. They'll just evolve to new media like Twitter:

Didn't we hire a search firm so we could avoid this? It's not like she would be networking and passing out business cards to the coaches.

LOL @ BridgetSPK thinking V was clean
simonn is right. Valvano was the Calipari/Calhoun of his time. Face it. The school screwed up by overreacting to it when the NCAA didnt have much hard evidence but to pretend that everything was A OK under his reign is hilariously naive
Reading that post was almost as funny as watching NyM410 defend Calhoun or the unc fans defend the football scandal

If I remember right, she also said that she would be looking at coaches herself, and if she found a good candidate she would move forward on her own in that regard. She didn't give up her powers by hiring a search firm4/3/2011 7:09:46 PM |

No, he's pretty accurate actually. V did what most coaches do only he got caught. He paid the piper. No shame in anything he did. Just unlucky, really.
Basically college fans are the most hypocritical in sports. If "your team's coach" does something wrong he's misunderstood and the NCAA is out to get them. If "some other team's coach" does something wrong he's a crook, cheater, asshole and kicked your dog.

The people in media won't get paid unless they write a column. It's hard to write a good column when there isn't much info out there. So they end up making up stuff writing some stuff with all kind of speculation. Sometime this speculation might turn to be true just by chance. This is is basically what is happening between N.C. State coaching search and media. 4/3/2011 7:44:53 PM |

^^^Again, what exactly did he get caught doing?
And how did he pay the piper? I wasn't going to pursue that point, but since I didn't edit it out in time... What happened to him? You've identified him losing his job. How did he lose it? What else happened to him besides him losing his job? What happened to NC State?
You've confirmed tower's analysis, given us a lecture about fan dynamics, and talked on about how you're a hypocrite. Now how about you provide just a few details about the events you just provided commentary for. 4/3/2011 7:48:53 PM |

Quote : | "After all that we've been through, how can I leave these guys?" |
can anyone substantiate that? I'm hoping we get Smart but if that quote (or something similar) is true maybe he will stay at VCU...
just found this too
Quote : | "Just talked directly to the VCU athletic director, Norwood Teague, and he told me no contact from Missouri or North Carolina State reps asking for permission to talk to Shaka Smart.
"We're status quo," Teague said. This was at 4:45 p.m. or so on Sunday.

DY is waiting for the tournament to end and then she'll start answering her phone. Until then, Barnes, BD, and Smart are wasting their time leaving messages on her voicemail. 4/3/2011 9:56:18 PM |
