I support your decisions.  Wife, husband... same thing

Where the heck did that come from? Did you not notice the comments were from two different people?

Keefe, are you one of them, or one that was 120% smarter?

Not smarter but certainly a huge believer. When hired by Cap I went through the executive program in Fairfield. Ended up using Six Sigma for everything - forex hedging operations, swaps, warrants and derivatives, charting operations, etc... I had always associated Juran and Deming with manufacturing. Was I ever wrong but couldn't stop slurping once I got a taste for the Kool Aid. We brought in Black Belts from around the world to ensure best practice. Those guys are worth their weight in gold!

When I moved down to Singapore we used them for Clinical Trials. Again, could not have been successful without them. Our partners from Sun, Harvard, and Quintiles were blown away by the precision we engineered into the most seemingly mundane tasks. There is no substitute for quality control in everything one does.

When your kid is not developing where he/she should be then you do everything you can.   Either you are not a parent or don't intend to.  I put every penny I make into my kid.

There's only so much that can be done. Money and helicopter parenting won't help much

But I digress

Thanks for the concern.  We are fine -- disappointing on many levels but optimistic for the future. Buzz in my mind was great for the program; disappointed he left and don't think it is a university issue.

Let's hope the next guy is half as successful as buzz and twice as nice as Tom Crean at Indiana.  May the basketball gods shine bright...

I think you will find a number of people who worked with Buzz weren't finding him to be Mr. nice guy either. 

It is what it is

From what I've heard from some coaches of other sports at MU, the one thing that can't be said about Buzz is that he's humble.  That part of his persona was a total act.

But are any coaches humble?

Wouldn't it be great to get a guy that wants to be here for the next 15 years? 

Outside of Coach K, Pitino, Boeheim, Mark Few, and a couple other programs, how realistic is long term coaching stability?

Buzz's tenure was far too short IMO, but MU's situation is the reality that 95% of D1 programs deal with.  Sure, with the money MU invests in their program, you'd hope we'd have a 15 yr coach, but unfortunately that isn't a reality.

Mike Scioscia of the Angels, is humble.  One of the nicest  guys I have ever worked for.  In college, a number of assistant coaches I found to be humble as assistants, but I don't know if being in the other chair changed them.  Tim Buckley was a humble dude, so was Dwayne Stephens.  Some guys on Deane's staff were as well.
