Buzz Williams vs. Al McGuire

[NersEllenson]

good point, it is coach speak. In fact, I will bet the Milwaukee winters may wear down the Texan.

Only fear I have of Buzz leaving is when the University of Texas  or Texas A&M jobs open..Rick Barnes is 56...don't see him quitting before 65..so hopefully this insulates us for 9 years.  Turgeon is going strong at A&M and is only 45.  I don't see Buzz leaving to go to an SEC/ACC school for weather reasons.  So long as he is able to continue to attract strong recruits to MKE..and MU stays in a BCS conference..I think we are safe.

Let's worry about Buzz taking us past the first weekend of the tournament before we start comparing him to Al.

I think of this thread in the same way as the DWade vs. Al thread...

There is no way Buzz could equal Al, because Al built Marquette.  Even if Buzz matched his accomplishments, he wouldn't be thought of as Al.  He'd be the Roy Williams to Dean Smith.

Actually, Buzz is Al, reincarnated.

Seriously.

Don't beleive me?  Go here, and look at the picture.

The internet doesn't lie.  It only misleads.

Gotta agree. Buzz has a lot of promise. Al put a lot of bombs on target. Big difference.
