- Todd Rosiak (http://blogs.jsonline.com/muhoops/archive/2008/04/07/williams-initial-thoughts.aspx) blogs his conversation with Buzz Williams (http://blogs.jsonline.com/muhoops/archive/2008/04/07/williams-initial-thoughts.aspx). Terrific work by Todd.
- Here's Rosiak's article from today's edition (http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=736536).
- Here's the MU Tribune on the hiring (http://media.www.marquettetribune.org/media/storage/paper1130/news/2008/04/08/Sports/Buzz-Williams.Named.New.Head.Coach-3308626.shtml).
