Three jobs in 2 months? Hope he sticks at this one, if it's true.

Strange that he lasted just a month at Illinois.  Guess something about Illinois put him off or we have much more to offer him.  Very strong hire for Buzz.

I would like this hire for so many reasons...hiring him right out from the University of Illinois would be really fun.

IWB is saying that this is the guy he was referencing and thinks its a done deal.

Oh and this should make up for any bad feelings about Aki going to Memphis.  Hiring a Big Ten assistant just a month after he went to Illinois is a damn good move and not something that an "unstable" program would do.

This does ease my mind a bit. Gotta think that this will help with Nunn.

He recruited a great deal of the talent that lead Murray State to their success this past season.  Frank Haith hired him for that reason...Groce hired him because he is a Chicago guy.

I like it.  Chicago and Milwaukee are important to our future and we have to recruit well in these cities.  Too much talent that could/should end up at MU.  

I like the the national recruiting and we have to continue it.  But picking up local guys like Taylor and Burton/Wilson is a big key, of course.

Is this a promotion for Issac to MU?

First two names that came to mind for me: Ishmael Wainright and Jameel McKay. Wainright is a guy Marquette has shown interest in, and Chew has ties to Kansas City. McKay plays at Indian Hills CC, where Chew used to coach. Both are 2013s, not sure how things will play out and if we'd have room for 2 more in that class, but Chew's reputation could help land one or both, in addition to likely helping keep our ties to Chicago.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say "yes" and further that this hire pretty much settles the "which is the better basketball school - MU or Illinois" debate.

Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

It sounds like he's a good guy, but what's the deal with Illinois?
I started reading the first link and thought something was screwy - he just got hired there! Is this indicative of instability?

Who knows?  Maybe he didn't get along with Groce...maybe he likes Buzz all that much more...maybe MU offered him more money...maybe he decided that it would be better to change a bad decision early.

maybe he always wanted to coach at the "SLU of the Northwoods"

For giggles I checked out a couple of Illini forums and they sure didn't disappoint.
They can't fathom why a guy would leave a "top 15 school" for Marquette.
Tee-hee. As delusional as ever.

Top 15 in the Big Ten?  I guess that's safe to say.
