A little after 9 AM per Marquette Athletics twitter feed.

He was just on...MU was the first thing they talked about to lead the show off. They showed the game highlights and DJO's shot over and over. Buzz was a great interview as always.
Buzz said they got in at 2 a.m and he went to bed at 4 a.m. and woke up at 5 a.m. Basically talked about how MU has made it this far based on their toughness and resolve. Says the toughest team may not always win, but it gives you the best chance for success on and off the court. Said UNC will have more talent on the floor of course and on the sidelines in terms of the guys in suits just like against 'Cuse. He talked about his postgame lockeroom celebration and how it was something that his players will remember for the rest of their lives and that's what makes it so special.
PLEASE TELL ME YOU TYPED OUT THE WHOLE CONVERSATION!!
My wife called me on her way to work to tell me Buzz was on KLove, the Christian radio station. Buzz called in on his own to thank them for the service they provide. The woman DJ had no idea who Buzz or Marquette was. Not sure she knew what basketball is. The guy at least said he watched part of the game last night.
Buzz said they got back at 2:00, he tried to sleep at 4:00, and ended up in the parking lot of his favorite breakfast place at 5:00 waiting for them to open. Said he was listening to the radio in his truck and decided to try to call in to thank them. Surreal!
His favorite breakfast place isn't ma fishers!!!!

The funny thing about this story is that it is 100% believable.
