I Hope Buzz leaves MU after this season

I think they'd trade Keno for a sack of used socks in a heartbeat.

Cleveland Browns fans would traded Bellicheck for a box of rocks when I was there.  UCLA fans with Lavin.  UCLA fans with Bartow.  Etc, etc.

Situation, timing, etc, etc, all come into play.

Seems like ages ago. Who were other possible candidates other than Buzz after Miller and Bennett pulled out. Did the decision have to be made that quickly. I know they were afraid of losing recruits, which happened anyway. Were there no other possibilites? Would there have been other candidates available, say April 20th?

MU was interested in Anthony Grant who was Virginia Commonwealth's coach at the time - and he said thanks but no thanks.  The reality of the MU situation is that no solid, upper echelon exisiting coach at another BCS type of university is going to leave the program they are at (assuming things are going fairly well - which you'd have to think they would be in order for them to be an attractive candidate) to come to MU.  Is it any surprise that our best coaches thus far since the days of Al have been young assistants - Majerus, O'Neill, Crean, Buzz??

We've seen what happens when MU tries to get an established/veteran coach - Dukiet and Deane.  This is my biggest beef with those who hate on Buzz - if not him, then who??  Considering we were shot down by the above...
