If it happens
« on: March 17, 2014, 11:39:05 AM »
If Buzz would leave,who would you want as coach.I will suggest Danny Manning(Tulsa),Rex Walters(San Francisco),Brian Wardle(UWGB) and Bobby Hurley(Buffalo).Everybody will probably say Gregg Marshall,but I don't think he would come to MU.

I love what Manning has been doing at Tulsa. I really dont think Buzz will leave but for arguments sake I would say Manning, Wardle or Chew.

I say we hire Bobby Knight.  Not only would MU get the one of the best coaches ever for his swan song, we could finally get people to shut up about Tom Crean.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

Might as well get it out of our systems early... perhaps that way we can talk about something else more productive during the off-season.

willie warrior.

He knows SO much more than Buzz about evaluating players.

If willie turns it down, Ners might be a good plan B.

Cuz we all know Buzz is a quitter so one bad year is sure to make him tuck his tail between his legs and leave.

I think that that choice would cause trouble with the NCAA.  I hear that his babysitter is a highly ranked prospect from Philly and when he follows the kid to Marquette, some would charge undue influence.

Wasn't Knight the top rumor when Crean left?

If Chew is considered, I don't see all these Illinois players he was suppose to be in on coming to MU.
As much as I bashed Buzz this year, I hope he doesn't leave. It was just a bad mixture of personalities
and not much talent. Buzz will get it right. He is the face of the basketball program. Otherwise Marshall or some noted coach.

The thread was awesome.

I dont even know what the original topic was, but by page 45 it started morphing into what the best fishing spot was on Lake Erie

He had all the chance to leave last year, did not, now after a bad season if he left, I would consider him a quitter. He made this mess happen, now clean it up, it will make him an even bigger
target in the future if he can that, if he gets Stone, he will be warrior.

If Buzz would leave I think it again would show we are lacking something to keep young talent. It really would be time for the admin to evaluate the good and bad and try and figure out why we would lose a guy making the kind of bread Buzz makes. Not sure on my thoughts on Buzz staying or going, but believe there will be a lot of chatter in next couple of weeks regarding Buzz.

FYI---when I mean my thoughts, I hope he is here for ten more years, just not sure if that happens.

This is the deal.If Buzz does not land Stone,he will not be here that much longer.The reason is he had 2 top players in his own backyard in Looney and Stone and could not get either.That tells him it can not be done.

That's if Buzz feels like he needs top 10 players to win. Looney was never staying in the midwest, MU was never, ever an option.

Izzo doesn't need top 10 players and doesn't want them, if Buzz needs them and has to leave because of it, then he's not that great of a coach.

Doesn't mean a thing.

Kentucky, Kansas, Duke, NC, UCLA,  and Arizona are going to get most top 10 players. Doesn't matter where they are from. It has no effect on Buzz' job status whatsoever.

Now, if these in-state guys were picking UW consistently, there might be a grain of truth to your opinion.

Buzz is only going after players who are willing to go to class, work harder than they've ever worked before, sit through and learn from his "life lessons," and make new friends through Buzz's Bunch.  I have no idea if this describes Stone, but if it doesn't, he isn't coming to MU.

He should be.

Between this season and multiple losses to high seeds in the first two rounds of the NCAAT Georgetown fans should be unhappy.
Shut this board down at the opening tip.  If they win, open it back up.  If they lose, keep it shut it down until the next morning.  - Sultan of Slurpery

Buzz also doesn't go after players who have their hands out. It's no coincidence they don't recruit/ stop recruiting certain players. Time will tell with stone. His recruitment will heat up very soon.

Georgetown is a little different animal. Their student graduation rate is well over 90% - much higher than most schools.

If JTIII gets in trouble it will be because the men's basketball graduation rate is less than half of the school's general rate. This despite the fact that most players are there 4 years.

I just "googled" Buzz Williams rumors and the first site was a VA Tech chat room and they are saying they would take whomever Auburn doesn't choose between Pearl and Buzz.

This is such an awesome right of passage every spring.
