Yes, I'm going to freak out for a moment...

How will this affect our 2014 commits? As well, further, what about 2015, 16, 17 kids? Nick N? Stone?

We could very quickly bottom out. Especially if assistants who have created recruiting in-roads leave like Chew.

unnatural carnal knowledge.

Yep this sucks.

I am not terribly worried about our instate guys, or even the Chicago born players like Steve. I don't see Burton or Duane leaving, and I feel the same way about the MU lifers like Noskowiak, Cohen, and Flory. I'm not even convinced this will affect our status with Stone.

If we obviously didn't know what was going through the mind of a 40yr old why would we even pretend to know what is going through the mind of a teenager?

When has that stopped anybody on this board before.

Burton said he was shocked and surprised. But he also said he was staying at marquette

I'd be surprised if he left. It has a chance to really be "his team" next year

Nick N. just tweeted that people need to stop asking him questions, because he has no answers right now.

Attaboy. We're just as committed to him.

We'll soon see that the program is bigger than one man. Players staying, a coach with three Final Fours reportedly expressing interest in taking the helm.

If he follows Buzz, he will sit his first year anyway.

This is where I have the biggest problem. Is that his players are shocked. They should be the first to know. That to me is the most classless thing of the entire situation.

2012 Warrior · « **Reply #13 on:** March 21, 2014, 05:42:39 PM »

Buzz always said the program was about the players...

Lets keep it that way and hope the players know

Don't think that's true if we release him from his LOI but I could be wrong

Hell yeah to Burton...love him taking a leadership position and stating his intentions right away. Milwaukee kid, who wanted to be an example to Milwaukee kids...shows he'd at MU for that reason above Buzz.

Also think with how bizzarely Buzz coached team this year - this may actually HELP retain some of the young talent...can't think for a minute JJJ, Burton and Dawson all weren't scratching their heads...wondering WTF?

He means if he goes to VT, Buzz will not play him.

I really just want to keep most of our incoming guys. If we can get a coach like Howland I will feel infinitely better about our recruiting chances. Chew will just be damage control to keep his connection with the recruits.

Rockmic87 · « **Reply #20 on:** March 21, 2014, 06:05:11 PM »

Howland also has proven success with bigs (i.e. Love). Our only hope for Stone.

mu_hilltopper · « **Reply #21 on:** March 21, 2014, 06:05:47 PM »

Serious question .. why would any player (beyond juniors) stay at MU? There's just a world of better opportunities out there right now, for a transfer or new recruit.

Obviously, if you're from Wisconsin and want to play close to home, ok, that makes sense. Otherwise .. really?

MU, via crushing losses of the Big East, ESPN, and now Buzz leaving is half the program it was 12 months ago. Brutal.

Exactly why we need a proven coach (i.e. Howland). This is not an appropriate time to be giving someone a chance to prove themselves.

Recruits can rest easy. Marquette will hire a coach interested in playing the best players, not who he "believes in". Good riddance.

Marquette is a really good job, they'll hire a great coach and continue to be a high level program.
