We need to talk about Willie the Wave.
Now this isn’t a conversation about his often-misunderstood public perception, his rocky past or (shudders) The Wave Rangers — in fact, Willie is actually admired outside of the Malibubble. Nor am I advocating for replacing Willie because Pepperdine’s athletics site does say he’s “here to stay.” I’m just saying he needs someone on the sidelines to accompany him during games with little-to-no crowd support.
