Buzz's Gold jacket

[Bo Ryan's Massage Therapist]

Anyone have a photo?  I want one!

[GGGG]

I couldn't figure out if he was elected to the NFL Hall of Fame, or started selling houses for Century 21.

[madtownwarrior]

he did not have it on for very long....

What our record when Buzz wears the gold jacket?

Interestingly enough, While Buzz is a fashionable dresser....college basketball's worst dresser has officially hit the stormy seas.

Additonally, locally columnists and editorials are now openly questioning whether Crean is or should be on the clock, how IU can look this poorly coached, and potential new IU coaches.

A Fire Tom Crean Twitter handle is blowing up.

All, this with two projected first round draft picks.  If they both leave after the season, next season will be another debacle in Bloomington and I cannot see the guy making into 2016.  MAC is where he belongs anyway.

Crazy stuff. The natives aren't just restless; they are wielding pitchforks and torches. Sadly for them, methinks they are stuck with him for at least another year or two, though.

It's amazing how quickly threads get co-opted.  I'm astounded sometimes.  "Buzz's jacket is cool."  "YOU KNOW WHO ELSE WEARS JACKETS...?!"

They all want the man gone now but they know the buy-out will force the school to keep him around for a while. The pathos is palpable

It's Central Michigan! It's Central Michigan!

It's sort of entertaining the first couple times you see it, but it gets to be too much very fast.

Every day this happens, it's an indictment of the mental midgets who occupy far too much space in this fanbase.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

So Buzz's gold jacket is somehow connected to Tom Crean?

ya, opposed to the really smart people like Golden Avalanche...just ask him.

I'm know he can land another head coaching gig somewhere, but I would take him back as an assistant in a second.

Why?  I can't figure out why that would be good for Marquette.

Actually, I'd take him back as an assistant too. The guy obviously has some established recruiting pipelines.

[source?]

So Buzz's gold jacket is being considered for an assistant position? 

[willie warrior]

Pretty pathetic--people having woodies over a coach's coat. Wonder what Miley Cyrus is sporting these days.

Are you kidding?? U would really want that prick associated with MU?
Plenty of great hard working assts out there.  
I never for a second held anything against him for leaving, and how he left?...well he could of handled it better, but there is no good or easy way to leave.  
Now him contacting and attempting to poach all of our commits!!! That is absolutely unforgiveable.  Buzz n MU will never forget that!!

Is this a fact or a speculation?

Yes. Tom Crean, working with the "Zizzo Group," is responsible for the Gold nickname. Buzz' jacket is actually a ceremonial L'Hommage to his mentor.

I didn't make this up. These facts were posted on Scoop.

Can't talk about her clothing these days because she isn't wearing any.

And we all know that whatever is posted on Scoop is Gospel.

By the way, it is time to bring back the Bumblebee baggies. Saw the Oregon game yesterday--take a look at their psychedelic floor. If NCAA allows that, they cannot ban any uniforms for being "distracting" We need to bring Bo back to design new uniforms. Hell, if they do that, I may even make a cash contribution. And then he can design some coats for Buzz also.

Found a picture of the jacket

Found a picture of the jacket

Thanks....good pic. Love the jacket.

--> I'm not an Alum...been in Milwaukee only 8 years...so maybe there's something I'm missing about MU culture and history....but I don't understand the hate for Crean? I don't think its warranted. Will people hate Buzz if he goes to Texas or wherever to coach one day?
