You realize what kind of image Buzz would have if he did that to us? Plus the kind of image WCU would get?

Not that it matters Buzz has a press conference here in 2 hours.

I know what your saying completely. Its a very interesting situation. Its getting talked up pretty good on the WCU board at Delphi. By Buzz saying "probably" to the paper a couple of times he might have pissed off the admin at Coastal. I'm just interested in seeing what happens. Stay tunned. I'm going to go visit the Coastal board and see whats going on.

Bobby Cremins did that to South Carolina, returning to GT 2 days after accepting the job. Now he can't get a job coaching. Don't know if those 2 things are related but he seems to have a bad reputation .

I forgot about that.

Dang maybe we can get Crimens!?

Cremins hasn't had it since the early 90's. He couldn't recruit anywhere but New York and in the end of his career he couldn't even do that. If USC is looking to replace Odom I wouldn't recommend Cremins. They should look for a younger, more exciting coach.

USC will hire Greg Marshall from Winthrop if Odom leaves any time soon.

Buzz and family looked pretty happy to be at the beach. His parents even drove from Asheville to attend the press conference.
