Apparently this should have been named the nickname tournament, as much like Warrior's, Tanned Tommy has been dominating the Idiosyncrasies region. Creaned has been plug away and has been tested, including a tough fight with a #1 seed, will that serve it as it tries to take down the tanning salon?  Will we have an all nickname left side of the Final Four?

Creaned/Buzzcut/Boned
This is a mean that has existed for a while, crossed over from dirty badger boards, and has transcended coaches, both at MU and Wisconsin.  Essentially a derogatory term for speculation that a player was asked to leave a program to make room for better talent.  First coined by Becky boards to describe players leaving under Crean, it was then transferred to Buzz.  It became BOned once Wisconsin had a little hedge trimming of their own.

Tanned Tommy
Many nicknames were generated for Tom Crean after his departure for Bloomington, Indiana.  One that stuck as a meme was Tanned Tommy, referencing his amazing ability to always be at a perfectly bronzed skin tone throughout the long, cold, sunless winter's of Milwaukee.   One wonders if Tom inspired Dick Bacon, or the other way around
"A Plan? Oh man, I hate plans. That means were gonna have to do stuff. Can't we just have a strategy......or a mission statement."
