They are apparently firing Seth Greenburg...but they waited this long before doing so?

Smart of them to wait to be sure that Buzz hadn't accepted the SMU job, before pulling the trigger.

You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

I believe they are still looking to fill the "Coach in Waiting" position. Maybe he takes that to keep the SMU dream alive.

I'm going to miss him and the annual fun of watching him moan about not making the NCAA tournament.  It's an NCAA Selection Show tradition like no other!

article essentially infers that Greenberg sucked to work for/with. could also be construed as weird insular university-speak.  either way, hard to believe there's anything here the AD didnt know 2 months ago.

Not sure what you're going after here. Unless I missed something, neither of the Reds and neither of the Larrys ever coached at our fine Jesuit institution.

Seems like there were some issues between Greenberg and the AD/athletic dept. Seth's absence at the dept workshop must have been the final straw. Still odd timing though.
