I'll tell you what, I dig everything that Buzz Williams is about. He feeds off of hard work. He understands his 20-something year-old players and they understand him. He preaches about character, and lives everyday with high character in the forefront of his mind.
As a student at Marquette University, I could never have asked for a coach that better embodies the values of the institution. I know that's something Coach says a lot, but I believe it. And that's why it is easy for me to get in line and support this guy and the players who play for him.
For one last time in the 2008-09 season, he spoke to the media. MUTV was there to cover the press conference that was a bit different than all the previous sit-downs with Coach Williams. Today, he didn't shed a tear. He told us he hates goodbyes, and that he'll miss being around his guys more than anything. But "Coach Buzz" got pretty laid-back with us today, and shared his thoughts on the Missouri game, the season, his seniors, and more. Take a look at the four-part presser on MUTVsports.com (http://mutvsports.com) or below:

I'm working on getting to the Final Four, as Detroit is my hometown. But no matter what, we'll continue to have content flowing from our site. So thank you for your time, but know we're still working here at MUTV Sports.
What an AWESOME guy to have as our coach. I really like how Buzz is coming into his own and he comes across as a much more likeable guy than our last coach......maybe its because he's for real and not a total phony; now its even clearer why the players like him so much....
