[quote="Mike Zaun" post=291746][quote="Ray Morgan" post=291745][quote="Mike Zaun" post=291744][quote="fordham96" post=291743]It's going to happen I'm told.[/quote]
Before or after Christmas? I kid of course. Admittedly my patience has been wearing thin, but hope this is true. Any timetable?[/quote]
If your patience is wearing thin because the university is not moving quick enough to satisfy your timetable, I would suggest you follow another program.[/quote]
Hold on, let me get a sharpie and add that to the list of things Zaun can't do. (Whips out my white board and Expo marker and begins writing), "Never joke about anything involving the program as it shall always be taken the wrong way". Actually, has anyone ever mentioned a Sharpie on the forum at one point in its existence? That would qualify as "beating a dead horse" which would break another one of Zaun's exclusive rules.
My opinions are not earth-shattering or novel. I hope we seal the deal but no need to attempt to push me to root for another program due to a joke.[/quote]
Your opinions are rarely even relevant, but I agree with you, that was a bit inappropriate. They should have been pushing you to therapy.

[quote="Adam" post=291777]It looks like we're getting some good news, so no need for this thread to turn sour.
Hoping Rice is on board sometime this week. Then all we need is Heron to be eligible and this would be the best off-season in a very long time.[/quote]
Even if we get Rice and Heron is eligible, some on this site will still find something to bitch about

I just want to get the same feeling again I got when we were about to play G'Town at MSG primetime for a chance to dance and we won. A blend of excitement, pride, nervousness, but overall camaraderie. Going to Stout after in the chilly air and seeing everyone drunk and happy. Taking the train home with guys chanting, knowing we likely just locked up a bid and people stopping me to ask if they won. I truly miss that and our starving fanbase deserves success. Lord knows we have suffered enough!

The great thing about MZ is that he majored in psychology and perhaps has a masters degree. He's like a tumor that majored in oncology and doesn't know what malignancy means.

Nice post Mike. Hopefully this year we can dance w/o getting there by the skin of our teeth. I haven't been to a BE tournament game in many moons but seriously considering making the trip this year.

[quote="L J S A" post=291786]Watch him go nuts and throw a ball at Ponds' head in the first practice after we've been clamoring for him for 18 months.:lol:[/quote]
Holding my breath!
AH no-oooo! Don't say that! LOL.
Hey LJSA, you may have nailed the date!
Congrats, if so!
Regardless, 'when' this happens, how sweet it'll be, because he 'completes' our Staff.
He's not a savior, but he's a talented hoops junkie and coach...who 'right-sizes' our staff versus our major competition.
Wonderful, 'when' it happens.

Or fire a ball at MZ for being annoying.
Actually I take my share of swipes at MZ, but it may be nice to lay off him for a while. He's not a bad guy

This thread is the very essence of self fulfillment. For my part, I have been sifting through Q Anon's posts for Rice references (although I was hoping for Donna, back in the day). Oh well...

Yes some bitching & moaning but not by you or me or most posters.
Good times are here and ahead. We are blessed - except for someone i.e. Chicago Days holding his breath lol

A lot of Hamilton vs. Jefferson on this thread, which is great, except when you see so much activity you think something happened instead of its us being, well, us. August in NY is a terrible time to keep it sane, apparently in Indiana also true, let’s give it a try for one more week? The not so small tea leaves seem pretty fragrant for Utopia Pwy

Heard Rice's Aunt Tilly is having a 90th birthday celebration at the end of this month so things will have to wait until after that.
