KW Article Not Real Positive

[Buesch N Chips]

I knowing someone personally who used to work at the PJ Star, and he just texted me this -

"Will you tell the people on BradleyFans that KW is the biggest Bradley honk ever?"

KW is an alum. He doesn't want BU to fail.

Ask him if there was an issue at the beginning of Les' tenure that got the relationship off on a bad foot.

Read KW's piece after BU won in the big dance.....I don't think he always wanted Les out.

Just to be clear, I don't think anyone has ever questioned that KW is a BU fan. People are suggesting he doesn't like JL, and that KW didn't want JL hired, which I still believe to be true. I'm not saying he's worng at this point or anything like that, just clearing that up.

While I have not ready every article from KW, I have never found him to be as anti-JL or anti-BU as some on the board seem the believe he is. It definitely sounds like he knows something... If not, it would be very dangerous to a columnist's credibility to write that a coach under contract has only 20 days left. I have heard similar unsubstantiated rumors, but it would seem odd to print that statement without excellent inside knowledge. The timing definitely seems strange.

I agree.

He only wants the coach fired like he has for a long time (about 9 years).

KW wants a successful program on the Hilltop...the same as everyone else on this Board. He just disagrees with the process and feels that the person in charge is not fully capable of guiding the program to that level. Is he wrong??? I don't think so...

Personally, I hope his prediction of + or - 20 days is accurate.

I think you could find posts from people saying he doesn't like BU...But you could also find posts on a message board claiming the world is flat.

I for one didnt want JL hired...he was my pick 7. wayne was 8.

what does that mean?

Bingo

And, it should be noted, KW used that one piece for years to defend that he was fair to Les. Even years later he pointed to that one piece to show balance. Not exactly balance, IMO. That would be the article where he said Jim Les had "finally arrived" as a credible Division 1 coach.

KW was harsh in today's article, but I don't really have a problem with it. He has been more fair towards Les this year than in the past.

Agreed

I've stopped reading KW a while ago.

I always thought he was a flamer and liked to make people mad.

Recently - it was pretty much confirmed to me by someone else.

So why does anyone care to read anything from a flamer with an agenda out to make people mad?

After winning 3 of 4 games, I was about to get back on the JL bandwagon, but last night reminded me of why I jumped off (starting last season after the Western Carolina game) Our guys played well enough to win, but the coaching didn't give us much of a chance.

If Les is gone and we don't lose key guys (DSE / JP / WL), while getting Remy & DS to commit regardless of the coach, I'm fine with that.

Someone who can get players (SM, TB, DSE, JP, WL, JE, SH, RA) to just do what they do best, would be nice.

If Les stays, then I fully expect him to bring BU into contention next year...or else.

[real fan]

Everytime someone writes an article that is critical of BU basketball and the coach he seems to have an agenda, will I was not fooled by are mini winning streak because I knew our coach would figure out a way to screw it up and last nights game proved once again he is over his head when it comes to in game decisions, he continually substitutes us out of runs and then benches players that are having good games like he does not know what has been going on out on the floor.

Haha, I've been lurking. It's tough to talk Bradley BBall right now without getting too heated. Especially when I'm not sure of my own opinions, lol.
