Not a Buzz guy

[Blackhat]

I guess familiarity really does breed contempt.   I wanted the guy hired.  But his style of basketball, I can't get used to it...I friggin hate it with a passion, no defense.    Wish Marquette all the success in the world, it's just hard to watch a Buzz coached team.

[MUBasketball]

And you were on here complaining about the same thing after the previous 10 wins right?

Oh wait...

No defense?  Did you see the turnovers the "no defense" created in the 2nd half?

As for watching the team.  I trust your post was meant to be in teal.  If not, man, I don't know what to say.  This is one damn fun team to watch.

Seriously? They are 10-1. Did u think we would be undefeated?

[Blackhat]

haven't said anything when we were winning even when we looked like crap against Washington.....wish the team success and won't ever root against Marquette.....just don't like Buzz or his mini me.

Well, it was fun. Thanks for jumping off the bandwagon after 1 loss.

Freaking crybaby.

ONLY TEN AND ONE?!?!? We should have 15 wins by now. ONLY 10TH IN THE COUNTRY... IN BASKETBALL?!? WE SHOULD #1 in Basketball and AT LEAST qualified for a BCS BOWL!

BUZZ NEEDS TO BE FIRED IMMEDIATELY

[MilWarrior]

I am glad they are still some sane posters on this board. We were beaten fair and square. We still have a great team. Buzz has done an unbelievable job! We're a top 15 program! It's his first freaking job! What do people want??????

[avid1010]

they gave up 67 points, and played like crap.  so much of LSU's offense was because of MU's inability to rebound for most of the first half, and DJO letting what should be his team down the last two games.  if someone would have said we'd be 10-1 after this game at the start of the season we all would have been thrilled.

I like Buzz a lot, but I share your frustration with the defense.  Partly because it goes against everything I have been taught about playing defense.

[Boone]

Color me NOT a Stone Cold guy. What an asinine post!

[Blackhat]

LSU shot 58% usually shoots 38%....that's been a theme with Buzz.

Buzz doesn't learn to coach defense don't be surprised if the loses stack up for a sub .500 BE year.    We were .500 last year and early signs aren't good despite our "hot" start (UW only good win).  

Hey I'm happy for Marquette just had to get that off my chest.  

[esotericmindguy]

State your case  if you're going to make ridiculous claims. What style? The style that lead them to the sweet 16 and #10 in the country?

[Nukem2]

Buzz did not have his best game tonite, but this thread is ridiculous.

[marquette09]

We had a bad night, $hit happens, move on take care of business Thursday.  Buzz and the team are alright

[ATL MU Warrior]

that airballed three from 45 feet was RIDICULOUS!!! What's he doing taking that shot? 

[Clam Crowder]

Yeah man his record through his first however many games is friggin awesome, and we just had our first 10-0 start since the Al days...sooo you should probably just stop talking

[tower912]

SC, you've been giving off that vibe for years, thanks for putting it in the open.   Completely disagree with you, and the problem tonight was the offense.    The defense was adequate.   Clearly missing Otule.    And we still created an insane amount of turnovers, just failed to cash in at the other end, which could be partially LSU's doing.

you're little phrase at the bottom of your posts should be in teal also-..."because stone says so?  that is funny right there.  that being said, stone, you have the right to state what you did and were very courageous to do so, but i am very curious what your motivations were and why you felt the NEED to post what you did because you knew it would generate some blowback.  but taken at it's word, if you have trouble watching this team, what do you find easy to watch besides womens beach volley ball?

+1  Benford as interim coach for the UWM game!

[MU82]

When one figures the complete package - recruiting, preparing, game coaching, relationship with players, etc. - Buzz probably is MU's best coach since Al. And I am a skeptic who dislikes hyperbole.

[NersEllenson]

Thanks Stone for completely outing yourself as the classic example of just how insane some in a fan base can be.  Show me 1 other coach in his 4th year that has a better track record than Buzz...if you want to say Brad Stevens, go ahead - how's his team doing this year with the guys he recruited?

Just goes to show that for some you need to do more than a Sweet 16 in Year 3, and that you better go undefeated in Year 4 to meet expectations.  Buzz sure isn't getting it done having us be a Top 10-15 program in Year 4.  Marquette is the epicenter of college basketball, and recruits simply beat down our door BEGGING to play for MU.  All top flight big men are dying to come to Marquette.  Really, the only school close to as attractive as MU to players is Kentucky.  Why doesn't Buzz sign more 5 star players?  

[kmwtrucks]

Coaching College is probably 1/3 recruiting which I think Buzz has done better then any coach since AL (I would like him to take more chances on Bigs then again Roseboro, Mbao, McMorrow did not work out)
1/3 is getting to player's to work hard, buy into your system, communicating and getting the most out of there IND talent.  Buzz has done this pretty well.  WES, Lazar, Jimmy,  got better under Buzz and more then likely DJO will all be drafted.

Lastly 1/3 is Coaching and scheme.  I would say of the 3 this is Buzz's weakest link but he still has not been bad.  We have won just as many games Vs teams that were clearly better then us as we have lost against teams that were clearly worse. He is also still Young and only in his 5th year of head coaching.  How many 5th year coach's that are 40 are great game coach's?

So stop posting then....we won't miss you. In the immortal words of the old bartender in Boondock Saints "Why don't you make like a tree, and get the f*ck outta here?"

[Goose]

I love our defense and the ball pressure. LSU made some tough shots and we played poor offensively. To me best part is we could have still won the game. I'll take this type of D for the next ten years.
