Yeah this makes sense. Should be interesting to hear the whole story if it ever comes out.
Yes it will I want to hear what Duane Wilson has to say about his RS. People here tried to crucify me for bringing it up.

Lots of details will be flying.

Bottom line: Williams is a huge classless BSer.

At one point this year I was going to post a poll asking what would happen first, Buzz getting us to the final four or getting us on probation. I decided not to post that, since I'm not very liked around here to begin with. Also, I just went back to having another drink and forgot about posting the poll :)
Melissa--you are liked by some. Just not some of the huge Buzz slurpers, many whom are not saying much rifgr now.

Many packed their bags and ran away at the first sign of adversity. 


Just typed that about the departed posters, then had a moment when I realized how ironic that was.

Huggins wanted Todd...recruited him hard...Todd chose MU over WVU...

Even if that was true it would raise more red flags.......

Something is up for sure.

Why else would he take VA Tech so quickly?  The season is still going on.  The coaching carasoul hasn't hardly even started.  If he waits a few weeks a better job comes up for sure.

VA Tech with our without Buzz is not gonna ever be a top third team in the new ACC.  

Im starting to believe some of this...

Sorry guys....No investigation. Get over it. The guy was an egotistical maniac. Good riddance.

Possibly long run last year dragged things out.

Earlier their was a post that said it was the $2m buyout that stopped Buzz from going to Minnesota last year.  The source was a Minneapolis reporter.  The year before was SMU, The year before that, as Hunt noted, Oklahoma was prevented by money from hiring Buzz.

This is why the administration (cords) was not caught flat-footed.  Been working on this for some time.

Not everybody who defended Buzz is gone.  I supported him as much as anybody until about four hours ago. Now I recognize him for what he was. I was wrong.

Who says there has to be an investigation in order for buzz to get axed?

This is not knee jerk decision. I love Buzz, but not for everybody. That said, he coached like a guy with a chip on shoulder this season which gives cause to long term commitment.

At our old level probably, but with this "new" Big East...not necessarily no...Jay Wright, JT3, Cooley. I don't see that ego. Follow Jay on Twitter he's a good guy.

I certainly didnt...Buzz did not get fired...

Buzz was given an order/request and his ego couldn't budge so he bolted for the first job. Should have waited for OSU.

That's the odd thing, Wake, BC, Okla State and more coming next week (and the week after).  Why didn't he wait?  Could he have been in a hurry to get out of town?

jsglow

I have no indication that he was asked to leave.  But I am 100% certain that he had detractors at MU's highest levels.  Best of luck Buzz. Thanks so much for the memories.

Is this you knowing something or speculating. I've lost track of who actually has connections here.

Doesnt seem very smart.  I know for myself.  If I am not happy at a job I start to put feelers out.  Go on some interviews and do a complete search.  Take the best job I can find after a thoughtful search.  You know, leave when its convenient and best for me.  Not for the company I am not happy with.

Helps us that he left early. We're not missing out on anyone now

Maybe buzz leaving after last year was not far fetched

Goose, you were a year off, but you were the first to call this.

Wish I was wrong but this was not out of the blue IMO. Much more to story, hopefully Hunt is in the ball and shares it.

He doesn't have an agent. Maybe that was the one honest thing he said while he was here. Maybe Buzz is just a hillbilly from Texas who is actually genuinely unintelligent and didn't wait for a better job...

The guy was quirky beyond all belief. This looks like another quirk in the Buzz "BRENT" Williams saga.
