When will the Press Conference Be?

[p8triotfan4life]

to announce Hewitt's removal as coach...Here are your choices:

as soon as the team flight arrives to Fairfax tonight after we lose @ Dayton?

tomorrow morning?

Saturday Night at 11:59 pm after we lose @ St. Louis?

March 12, the morning after losing in the A10 play-in game and giving him $85K bonus 11 days earlier?

 

[Vurbel]

Most likely, the last option.

Ideally after the St. Louis game.

P8,

Evidently, you haven't been following this board closely. The team will travel by bus from Dayton to St. Louis.

 

[p8triotfan4life]

evidently I haven't Pablo. Possibly because our program is a complete joke right now.

Edit to my above post (new choice):

Perhaps they won't allow Hewitt on the team bus after the game tonight and tell him to pay his own one-way flight back to Fairfax to gather his belongings?

I'll give it about 4 days after our last game.

 

[wijg]

I say May 1

2016.

That is the day his current contract runs out. At least part of me is still afraid he won't get the Ax this year.

 

[Washingtonian]

Well, this should have happened when the spring semester started, but hopefully it happens in St. Louis.

Mason fired Paul Westhead on March 4, 1997. This was 4 days after #9 seed Mason lost to #8 UR by a score of 85-57 in the first round of the CAA tourney.

 

[Saul Pewitt]

I hope it's a press conference to announce a contract extension.

If I am BE, I dont hold a press conference to bring any more spotlight to how bad our coaching situation. Not even a press release.

Just one day hold a press conference and announce a new coach!

The less we talk about Hewitt the better....

 

[99 Patriot]

I predict a typo-filled press release is put out Saturday night around 11:00.

You expect the AD to keep the firing a secret even with social media?

Yep. I would deny until I hired the new coach...just for shits and giggles...

 

[Walter]

Won't we be able to track when the University sends its private plane to pick up the candidates like the big schools do?

 

[JPgmuswim]

My guess is Monday March 16th, the day after the A10 championship game.

 

[CHRISTOPHER JAMES JOLLAY]

Either after the entire A-10 tourney or 1-2 days after Mason's loss in the play-in round.

Depends how long Edwards and perhaps Cabrera want to stay in NYC.

 

[sigmanorm]

My guess is a single tweet that says, "University searching for coaching candidates, must like Green and Gold and be willing to relocate to Fairfax. Visit www.gmu.edu for details."

I wonder if there's an unwritten rule not to make any announcements during the A10 tourney? If so, then JPgmuswim's prediction might be correct.

Likely there is.....any announcement might be seen as detracting from the publicity focused on the actual A10 tournament.

Good question. I doubt the headline would detract from the tourney, but perhaps.
