Bruce Weber?: Tulsa World

[seniorsooner]

Is Weber trying to get a raise ala Pastner?

I don't think there's any way he gets a raise. Honestly if he tried that I think the admin at Illinois would say "see yaaaa"

As I recall, you said some nice things about Bruce.

As I recall, you didn't say anything about Bruce. Nor will you.

Sid did you see Joe at the women's game the other day?

Tell me some good things about Weber, playmakr. Talk me off the ledge.

In the tweetasphere, Illini fans seem ecstatic.

Birchell's tweet is no longer on his page. Hmmm.

lmao

Illini fans have a very high opinion of their basketball program. Therefore, making the tournament on a consistent basis is considered a failure.

I remember a lot of OU fans that were ecstatic to see Kelvin go. Fans can be idiots.

Now that you will be kissing Brucie's arse, you better buy some ChapStick.

I would like him if he would be able to still get some Chicago kids to come to Oklahoma. I like his motion offense a lot I just think he has had trouble finding guys to fit as well as the great group he had in 2005. I also like he has had success offensively and defensively at Illinois, so there is the capability of putting both ends of the floor together.

This could be pretty good. Illinois fans think too much of their program. They have a good basketball program but if they make a bad hire like we did they can pretty much turn into a complete cellar team in the Big 10 instead of a constant NCAA type team.

I will give any Coach a chance to prove his worth. Was Ada able to help you with that search function?

Thanks. I shall sleep on it.

I would like to see some Chicago guys here too. How many have we had in our history? Big Old Booger, 04, NMSooner, other Sooner historians? The only ones I can think of are Calvin Pierce and Aaron McGhee if you count him I guess.

He's won 70% of his games as a head coach. We could do waaaaay worse.

This.

Does anyone else get the feeling that this is some sort of April Fools Day joke?

It's sad to be in a position where "we could do worse" is a legit endorsement. I miss Kelvin.

Weber's good enough that nobody on the board even floated his name because they assumed we couldn't get him.

 

[Soonerman]

I guess I'm in the minority when I say I would be somewhat excited by this hire. A Buzz Williams hire this is definitely not, but I would be more than content at this point.

The first sentence was an endorsement.

For those that would honestly lose sleep over hiring Weber, please go find that bridge you've been talking about so much.
