Flashy First Seasons

With Alabama and Georgia already leaping into the 2009 job fair, The Minutes takes a look to see which schools are getting the best returns on their '08 hires. (Admittedly, most of the guys on this list walked into pretty good situations in terms of returning talent.) Seven coaches doing the best job in their first seasons at new schools:

Buzz Williams (18), Marquette. Last season's RPI: 22. This season's RPI (through Monday): 14. It's a beautiful thing to inherit three senior guards who can really play -- but still, nobody was expecting to see the Golden Eagles undefeated in Big East play halfway through the conference schedule. Williams has taken Tom Crean's foundation and built upon it, and now Marquette is a top-10 team heading into February.
