JB Live Post-game Presser

[Cuse181]

Reading WAER’s thread it seems he’s back, reading waters comments, he’s gone?

Idk if I should to be sad about one thing or two

 

[jdubs30]

This is what I posted yesterday: Been told 1 more year for JB

Let me highlight some of it:

I am hoping that the JB decision is locked (whatever it is) and that JB and the University are ready for this week at the ACCT and are ready to be rowing the boat in the same direction, hitting the same cadence.

If he's retiring, great. Let's do it respectfully and celebrate his extensive achievements. If he's not, the plan next year has to be crystal clear. The message has to be in full harmony.

I have stated my preference for the coaching situation, this isn't commentary on that. This is about how next steps are handled, messaged and supported.

Yeah, didn't happen.

All involved parties should be highly embarrassed.

"I hope we can come to a good agreement but that remains to be seen"

 

[SU91]

The university will have to “let him go.” He can’t do it himself.

 

[Doc5120]

My take - he wants to continue to coach, but it's SU's call. And it seems like he is putting them in the position to make the choice.

 

[Orangezoo]

Facepalm

 

[Brooky03]

The flood of well-wishes for him are going to ring so hollow.

 

[RF2044]

Well, he just clarified that he wasn't announcing retirement.

That was a good question there at the end, to push him on that.

 

[orangezen]

He sounded so sad

 

[MikeSU02]

Well, he just clarified that he wasn't announcing retirement.

That was a good question there at the end, to push him on that.

Embarrassing for both JB and the university.

What a joke.

 

[PauliePeppas]

What a stubborn man

 

[ROCuse]

JB: "I think I've made it about as clear as I can."

LOL... he did the absolute opposite.

 

[Cusefan69]

Tough when things suddenly come to an end. Tough game, end of season, end of long career. Tough discussion in front of people.

 

[Tango32]

That was so awkward... seems like SU says time to go and he doesn't want to? That was so odd

 

[phil77]

Stubborn old man

 

[CuseBBall]

That was weird... Maybe he will retire if he can pick his successor? That would be his agreement. That or they fire him.

 

[SWC75]

The follow-up should have been "If they want you back, will you be back?"

Matt Park said "I think he wants to be bought out."

 

[Orangezoo]

Well, he just clarified that he wasn't announcing retirement.

That was a good question there at the end, to push him on that.

At this juncture feels like a quick statement with no questions then having the kids talk should have been the move.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

I'm not retiring, you're retiring.

 

[Lukeyloo]

I feel yucky after watching that. sad situation.

 

[pearl31]

sheesh

 

[Scott11]

He would not answer the question whether he wanted to return or not.
