Have seen this game played a few times, each time it has been just a persona played...

hope Buzz is different...  think Buzz is different...

Topper....who would know better on handle a team than the person you hired to run the team? Very few of us understand the complexity of a modern day basketball team and aside from basic rules I think the cosch should be in charge. Buzz talking about the kids never being loved shows just how little most of us would know about these kids. Basic rules are known but if you do not allow your coaches flexibility no way can they recruit or compete.

I agree, but that has nothing to do with the point, so not sure what you expected out of your post.

Hoop...agreed tighter leash if needed. Truthfully do you think our kids have behaved that badly that tighter leash was needed or was it new guys trying to be tough?

I do not know.  I've only read what I see in the papers which was not the greatest publicity.  I have heard other things, smoke where there is fire stuff, but do not know if it is true.  By the reactions you and muguru are making from the administrative side, it leads me to believe that maybe some of those other things might be true.

I think the biggest problem MU has had over the years is how they identify themselves as a program. I was listening to Roy Williams talk about Kansas and how he feels about that the program he left. He said it is OK to love two universities. Of all of former coaches how many do you think still love our university? To me the answer is none, with exception to Majerus for different reasons, and thst speaks volumes to me. Coaches come and go at many schools but I am afraid our culture is not one that embraces our coaches.

Tom Crean still loves Marquette. The feeling is obviously not mutual, but I've separately discussed it with two people close to Crean (one a former MU player) who said that Crean definitely roots for MU and misses MU.
