# @go_marquette They've had others, I know. But none on the road, that long and in the locker room. That was a first in 9 years for me. about 9 hours ago via web in reply to go_marquette

# Little note for #MUBB recruiting wonks: former Milwaukee Vincent star Phillip Nolan was at the game, and in the locker room afterward. about 10 hours ago via web

What do we know about Nolan?

Milwaukee bigman who switched to high school in New Jersey.

I presume a potential recruit attending a post-game team meeting is within NCAA rules?  Maybe it counts as a visit, but I bet he heard an earful.

He is very skinny and may be a project, but he is ranked in top 100, is 6'10", and 16th at his position. We should land him.

Nolan's a 2012 and we were the first school to offer him while he was still in Milwaukee. He's been ranked in the top 100, though I think he's fallen out in a few services. Projects as the face-up four that we've been hoping for. He'll have to add strength, but he's definitely more a four than a five, which would be really nice to go along with Otule (for a year) and Gardner the year after.

He reminds me of Merritt in high school. Played for Milwaukee Spartans. I thought he was offerred by Texas last year.

I haven't watched him personally, but here's his ESPN profile:

http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/recruiting/player/_/id/111668/phillip-nolan

Most services have him as a top 100, with him checking in at 91 on ESPN and 89 on Rivals. He was listed as a 4-star universally, but some services have dropped him to a 3-star since his transfer to St. Benedict's in New Jersey. He's usually described as a quick, face-up power forward, which sounds like exactly what we need to go along with Otule and Gardner up front.

They can be in the locker room but they can't engage in any game-day simulations, such as name-plates on the lockers. Also if there were any former players in the locker room and the recruit talked to them I think that is a viiolation. I think Iowa was in trouble with something like that. Seems like there is a wide variety of arcane rules and regulations.

Also according to that lameass thread, this is the guy that was in the locker room during the meeting. Did this eyewitness of yours stand by for an hour and 15 watching this guy?

Yes, the eyewitness was an MU grad, an award-winning writer, who waited outside the locker room for 75 minutes. And the recruit was NOT in the locker room. He was waiting outside the room.

Is this your proof?

Apparently, there was a recruit, a good-looking 6-foot-9 player who sat patiently outside the Marquette locker room, waiting for Bonehead Buzz to rear his bald head.

"Apparently"? Doesn't sound like someone who waited outside the locker room for an hour and 15 watching a potential recruit stand there for an hour and 15. Sounds like hearsay to me.

Give me a break, ecompt. The guy is a small-town prep sports reporter whose lack of professionalism oozes from nearly every sentence of that blog. It's mind-boggling that he would decry a lack of professional courtesy and standards in the same column that repeatedly refers to a far more accomplished person as "bonehead" and other clever names.

Regarding his "award-winning" journalism, as someone who's made a living in that profession, I know full well that means absolutely zip. Next to the entertainment industry, there is no more self-congratulatory profession than the media. We give ourselves awards the way Little Leagues give out trophies (i.e. everyone wins one).

Wow.

I guess he needed a reason not to like Buzz, and he found it, which then gave him the ability to do the classic sports writer's cliche of going off on some rant that really doesn't relate to the first part.

THE BULLET POINTS:
- Buzz is annoying because he is late
- Also he cannot recruit (see Taylor, Tyshawn who is "great" at KU)
- He takes on too many JUCOs
- Vander isn't good
- Oh, and being late is clearly a sign that he's over his head

His writing actually reminds me a little bit of Woeful. Not many facts, and very "ranty" if that is a word.

This goofy blogger wrote this ...

The NCAA and Big East Conference have regulations that the coaches are supposed to adhere to after games. There's a 10-minute cooling-off period, followed by the losing coach and losing players, then winning coach and winning players. It's a policy that is religiously enforced during the entire NCAA Tournament.

---

Is this true?  And he wrote this down in the comment section ....

No, it's not the first time Buzz has pulled this routine...In fact, he did almost the same thing last year at Newark and Marquette won that game. He wasn't found for about a half hour last year. This was far worse.

And no, it's not the first time this year, because I received assurance from the Big East office that he had done it ''several times'' and was already once warned.

Has anyone heard about any of this before?  I have not.
