This is the deal.If Buzz does not land Stone,he will not be here that much longer.The reason is he had 2 top players in his own backyard in Looney and Stone and could not get either.That tells him it can not be done.

That's if Buzz feels like he needs top 10 players to win. Looney was never staying in the midwest, MU was never, ever an option.

Izzo doesn't need top 10 players and doesn't want them, if Buzz needs them and has to leave because of it, then he's not that great of a coach.

Doesn't mean a thing.

Kentucky, Kansas, Duke, NC, UCLA,  and Arizona are going to get most top 10 players. Doesn't matter where they are from. It has no effect on Buzz' job status whatsoever.

Now, if these in-state guys were picking UW consistently, there might be a grain of truth to your opinion.

Buzz is only going after players who are willing to go to class, work harder than they've ever worked before, sit through and learn from his "life lessons," and make new friends through Buzz's Bunch.  I have no idea if this describes Stone, but if it doesn't, he isn't coming to MU.

Where's one of those Hoya posters? Is John Thompson getting the same treatment after Georgetown's season?

He should be.

Between this season and multiple losses to high seeds in the first two rounds of the NCAAT Georgetown fans should be unhappy.

Buzz also doesn't go after players who have their hands out. It's no coincidence they don't recruit/ stop recruiting certain players. Time will tell with stone. His recruitment will heat up very soon.

Georgetown is a little different animal. Their student graduation rate is well over 90% - much higher than most schools.

If JTIII gets in trouble it will be because the men's basketball graduation rate is less than half of the school's general rate. This despite the fact that most players are there 4 years.

I just "googled" Buzz Williams rumors and the first site was a VA Tech chat room and they are saying they would take whomever Auburn doesn't choose between Pearl and Buzz.

This is such an awesome right of passage every spring.

C'mon man let's get Coach Reeves from Carver High, he would recruit the urban areas well, he's got the NBA and Chicago connections down and I think he would come cheap....
