What will you be saying when he's CONSISTENTLY bringing in top 10-20 recruiting classes??
What if he gets Tyshawn Taylor to stay??
What if he lands Jamil Wilson??(i'm sure he'll get no credit for this one as many will say he's from Racine, he was going to MU anyway).
Point is, the players that he will be coaching have complete confidence in him, especially the leader of the team(DJ), why shouldn't we as fans?? The man deserves a chance doesn't he??
I agree. Fine, we get it, you didn't like the hire. Isn't it time to move on and focus on the positives?
I suggest, since its not changing anytime soon, that posters quit bashing the coach until such time comes that he proves incapable or the like.
Give the man a fair shake and chance to prove himself as everyone must start somewhere. We will all know soon enough whether this was the greatest heist since the Great Train Robbery or whether MU made this selection with their collective heads so far up their heines that they never see the light of day again.
I am willing to give Buzz his chance. It was never his fault that he was hired.
MUGURU---getting Jamil Wilson would be great for Buzz. I would say it was all because of him, not any other reason.
I don't think anyone is bashing the coach...I don't see anyone that doesn't want him to succeed. Landing Wilson and Taylor would be incredible.
People are frustrated by the process. It's just a cathartic period at this point for some of us. I can't imagine people aren't going to give the man a fair shake. Next season we will be a top 25 team most likely, depending if Buzz can keep Trevor or not. Fulce sounds like an interesting player, perhaps in an Eford mold. I don't expect anything out of Otule next year, big men are raw especially freshmen. Taylor would be huge and I hope like hell Buzz can get him. If he doesn't, I do NOT blame Buzz.
NO ONE IS BASHING BUZZ YOU FLIPPING IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some of us just don't think he is right hire.
I am confused on why anyone is against Buzz. I was one of the more outspoken about the Buzz hire, but it never was against Buzz. I question, and still question, the adminstration/BOT on their decision. But there is no way anyone can hold Buzz responsible.
You can question the school and their decisions. They have made mistakes before and that opens them up to a critical eye.
Time to forget about the past and rally around the program. All the negative talk here is simply unbecoming of what is supposed to be a Marquette board. If some posters want to continually gripe, maybe they should go elsewhere. These posts certainly are not productive. Move on people. WE Are Marquette. ( By the way, there were several very moving We Are Marquette chants at the awards banquet ...too bad they were not captured for viewing here as the true MU backers showed their love Thursday night ).

Huh, I was slated to go and purchased a ticket but couldn't make it at the last moment due to something that came up.
Yeah, I mean, Cura Personalis people!

This stuff never gets old.
You're a better MU fan then I am because you had the time to go to a dinner party. Pfft.

My thoughts exactly. My fandom is bigger than your fandom.
Fans - He is our SOB, so get behind him and lets see what happens. Crying about the process is such a waste of time at this point in time.
I would like nothing better than for Buzz to take next years team deep into the tourney and use it to be able to recruit a top class for '09 and beyond. However, a lot of damage has been done by TC leaving MU that needs to be repaired. As a top 100 recruit - it would be difficult to commit to the unknowns in the program right now. Given some time and some success - that will change.

My apologies, I couldn't convince my wife that a $500 plane ticket to fly out for a basketball banquet 2000 miles away was appropriate.

There is no time...continuity!
