Title: J.S. MU preview
Post by: w0bbie on November 11, 2010, 09:11:25 AM
An article by Rosiak detailing JFB's journey to and at Marquette.

Also linked at the side under "Related Coverage" is this quote from Jay Bilas about Buzz.

"Buzz Williams has done a really good job at Marquette," Bilas said. "He's an unbelievably hard worker. Talk about a guy who pays attention to detail. I was at a clinic with him a couple of years ago and I kind of joked with him about being the Rain Man in basketball. He can tell you how many times they have come off one side of a ball screen in a half, how many times they have attacked the middle, paint touches and all these kinds of things they do.

"I also called (Marquette) a few years ago Team Purell because he went through that thing where he was so worried about germs that he was giving everyone a dollop of Purell before a practice and it was all over the office," Bilas said. "He has done a good job recruiting. His teams have an identity. He does a really good job of getting five to play as one out on the floor. I have really been impressed with Buzz and the way he goes about his business."

Yeah I just read that preview.  Interesting story about Butler.  I knew he was Fulce's roommate but did not know that he had an offer from Kentucky, his dream school, out of juco.  Had he gone to Kentucky would his first year have been with Calipari or did he come in the year after?
