Now that (the new and reconfigured) Big East play has started...is there a rivalry or venue that you will miss from the prior Big East and is there a rivalry or venue from the new Big East that resonates with you and will develop going forward?

To go off this...

Is Dreadman a person close to the program? Your son? Your secretary? How do they already know that Jajuan told you he's transferring after this season? Has Jajuan actually told you that?

really??

Why did it take you so long to make the change of giving Dawson more pt over Derrick?

How was STJ's knee the day after the game? Any swelling?

I'd like to know if he thinks there has been a concerted effort by opponents to get Davante off his game thru pushes and/or borderline plays. If so, have they seen something in Davonte's demeanor that would lead them to believe he could become distracted?

It seemed to me that this was definitely the case vs. Georgetown, although Davante did a great job staying focused.

There is no doubt Buzz scours Scoop as an essential part of his game planning. What strategic nuggets from this board has Buzz appreciated most in making him the success he has become?

As a coach, how does it feel seeing guys like Dawson and Taylor contribute in a big game on the road? How does the distribution of playing time contribute to team morale?

That was good--made me laugh.

Do you actually think having DG double team the GT guards near the top of the key at the end of regulation and leaving his man wide open at the basket for easy fgs is a good defensive strategy. Aren't you just exchanging baskets if you make any on your end and eating up precious seconds?

ZiggysFryBoy · « **Reply #39 on:** January 22, 2014, 02:33:26 PM »

what does Buzz think about the women of the IDF?

River rat · « **Reply #40 on:** January 22, 2014, 02:35:50 PM »

Buzz, it would appear you were accosted and battered during Markel Starks traveling violation and subsequent scrum late in the Georgetown game. Where was Leonard?! Will this be a negative mark on his next performance review?

Homer, don't bother with this one. He's already had the question answered by several scoopers in another thread. They informed him it's a widely used, highly effective defensive strategy. Everyone else gets it so I wouldn't waste the time

Does the reffing appear to be as inconsistent and confusing to you as it does to me and, if so, what is the Big East doing to get control of this (e.g., do they review games and grade refs on performance in this area, do they have a process for schools/teams/coaches to note problems with reffing, etc.)? For example, in some of our games it looks like they are trying to strictly enforce the new hand checking rules and just generally calling a very tight game with many touch fouls. Other games they appear to be ignoring the new hand checking rules and letting the teams whale away at each other.

Answer this question carefully or Buzz will be paying fines out the wazoo!

Does Buzz have a favorite poem he would care to share with us on air?

BCHoopster · « **Reply #45 on:** January 22, 2014, 04:27:39 PM »

Buzz, after seeing Duane Wilson, does he look like he is 100% percent yet? Secondly, have you figured out how you will use him next year, as the point or 2 guard?

How are the recruits doing in High School and do you see any of them getting significant minutes next year?

Steve Taylor, is he 100% yet or does he have a ways to go, it looks like he is not as explosive yet compared to last year?

NavinRJohnson · « **Reply #46 on:** January 22, 2014, 04:32:29 PM »

I still see the lack of a Jae Crowder, Vander Blue, Junior Cadougan type leader among this current group of players. Gardner and Mayo for example, are good at "gettin theirs," but not necessarily good at taking the needs/shortcoming of the team upon themselves. Jamil does many things well, but doesn't seem willing to take over when needed, again to take the needs of the team upon himself.

Related side note to illustrate the point, has Davante Gardner been told not to go to the ground after a loose ball? Seems he's much more comfortable bending at the waste and reaching for it (usually unsuccessfully).
