Article on Jamil Wilson's recruitment

[MUBurrow]

Maybe Wilson didn't want to commit to a first yeear, unproven coach..he went elsewhere..saw that Buzz could coach, recruit..and now it makes his decision that meuch easier to come play for Buzz...

So Jamil Wilson can't celebrate when Marquette is successful either?

Acutally he can..because he's a least bright enough to figure it out after 2 years..unlike some..

Good point..and I am all for people having a consistent opinion...but don't bellyache about him being named the coach 2 years ago..and that he'd have no chance to compete for Wilson against the likes of Izzo and Rick Barnes...but now..a year later when we get Wilson..start criticizing the sh$t out of Buzz for "cutting" Newbill..and bringing in Wilson (especially when  -3EMer-wasn't present in the conversations between MU and Newbill...they guy - 3EM'er has been all over Buzz's a$$ about the Newbill situation...and when he started posting here had a major problem with Buzz being hired and questioned his recruiting ability...now..Buzz isn't recruiting in the "right way."  I brought up the post from 2 years ago as I found it ironic 3EM'er has been bitching for the last week about the Newbill situation..and found it ironic he was bitching about Buzz being hired 2 years ago due to his lack of experience and "likely" inability to recruit..which I think Buzz has clearly shown..he can recruit.

I admit my self-righteousness must be getting in the way of understanding just what in the he11 your rambling point is.  

I further admit that I questioned the rushed manner in which MU hired Buzz who had a glaringly short resume for a coach of a Top-20 program.

And I further admit that I questioned the seemingly unethical manner in which Buzz pulled Newbill's scholarship.

So your point is exactly what?  I shouldn't criticize Buzz for being underqualified because he was sufficiently savvy to lure a marginal high school player into signing NLOI, but then had the "recruiting ability" to breach the offer in favor of a better player?  

Or is your point that only blind loyalists should bother posting?

After a review of your post history..one thing is evident..you are critical of virutally everythhing associated with  our program..Buzz, the results of the Big 3.  Are you possibly a Badger troll in disguise? And no..Buzz didn't have the recruiting ability to greach the Newbill NLI..he had the recruiting ability to eventually land Wilson..which you implied could never happen when up against Izzo, Texas, etc...Hopefully Buzz can live up to your "Jesuit values."  And..who did you want MU to hire after Bennett, Grant, Sean Miller and Keno Davis turned them down?  Perhaps in your self-righteous illusions, you think MU is a destination job...the results of our search after Crean left pretty much illustrate that Providence, Arizon, Virginia and Alabam were all seen as better jobs than MU.  Why criticize Cotttingham for hiring Buzz after we'd been turned down by the other candidates?  You probably are the ype of guy to think the Bucks could land a LeBron or Carmelo in free agency...just isn't gonna happen..

I rest my case.  You're a knob.

OK. You didn't like Buzz when he was hired and were quite vocal about it. Then you disappeared during his 2+ years of success after success. Now you're back to rip him again.

I don't think only "blind loyalists" should be posting but I am suspect of those who only come around to attack/bitch/moan etc. Where ya been hiding?

I'm not hiding.

My name is Michael Flynn.  I live in Wauwatosa and work in Racine.  "3Mer" refers to the fact that I graduated from Marquette High, Marquette University and Marquette Law.  I am still paying on my law school loans 11 years after graduating.  I am a season ticket holder. 

I read MU Scoop to get insights into things I don't understand.  I rarely post except when the insights fail to adequately explain things such as the bizarre manner in which Buzz was hired or the bizarre manner in which Newbill was treated.

So you're saying you only post to attack, bitch or moan. Fair enough.
