Good to see Butler getting some love. Sounds like a potential 2nd round pickup for the Detroit Pistons.

"Buzz (Williams) preaches defense at Marquette. Defense is 85 percent of our practices easily. Coming from that coaching and history, that's all you know."
Thats interesting given the amount of heat Buzz was catching last year when the team failed to play good team defense. Several infered that Buzz didn't care about defense and never had since the days at New Orleans. In retrospect it seems to me that Buzz always emphised defense. The problem last year was too many new kids and inexperience at what I beleive are the 2 most critical defensive positions in college BB; point guard and center. I think we'll see significantly better team defense this year even with Jimmy gone.

I would love for you to be right.
