Could just be me, but this seems a little strange. Particularly given TG Sr's comments. Almost like we're celebrating the fact that our leading scorer is transferring for reasons, in part, we are all aware of. I'm sure Gibbs will say all the right things. Would be great if they took calls, would love to hear the response to some questions we'd all love to hear be asked.
Bad idea. I am interested in SHU players. I don't care why he left or who he is. He isn't a Pirate.

And I'm sure Carino will be fawning over him when he calls in. Weird move all around from a PR perspective.

The experience they will gain doesn't seem to be very beneficial if it's just a standard, conservative interview. They can do that with any one of our existing or former players. If they ask some tough questions it will be far more productive in their development as media members. What's the risk? Gibbs transferring? I'm not saying railroad him but there are a lot of ways to make this a potentially compelling interview by asking about certain things in the right manner.
I have met Sterling Gibbs in person and spoken with him and gotten a sense of him as a person. He's a human being first and somewhere down the list he's a Pirate. I support our WSOU staff in seeking out interest stories as well.
Sheesh.
Sheesh.
Gibbs...yawn. Let's move on. He is no angel. I laugh when Pelzman calls him a class act. How many class acts do you know who get multiple suspensions and have given a cheap shot for the whole country to see? The best is, and many of you might not know this, but a short time before Gibbs announced he was leaving, Willard and Lyons asked him flat out if he was coming back. Gibbs told them he was definitely coming back. Willard then chose to use the ship on a big (Anderson). A week or so later the kid says he is transferring. Some class act.
What I said came out sounding bad- I appreciate what he provided on the court ,some of the great performances he provided on the court that led to some great wins, I wish him well as a basketball player and also wish him good luck as a human being in life. My belief in GOD is what helps guide me thru each day, GOD is caring and loving and accepts all people and I try to live my life by accepting and treating all people the way I would like to be treated.

I don't think WSOU is concerned with towing the company line or any PR perspectives. I hope not, anyway. I didn't get to listen, but I thought it was a smart bit of programming, hosting the guy who was out best player but who decided to play his grad year somewhere else. I'd have liked to hear why.
Come on Source. No chance that happens. I feel about him like Gene Hackman felt when the townspeople starting chanting for Jimmy Chitwick. Let's cover our team and the kids who want to be here.
