Interesting little article by Jimmy Butler

Not quite what I would have expected him to say about his time at Marquette, but I guess it puts the final year improvement into better context.

Big thanks to Wesley and Lazar!!

Buzz had a lot of flaws but it is amazing what he got out of his guys. Not many better at finding diamonds in the rough and making them shine.

Beware PlayersTribune stuff....it’s just a PR firm
"I hate everything about this job except the games, Everything. I don't even get affected anymore by the winning, by the ratings, those things. The trouble is, it will sound like an excuse because we've never won the national championship, but winning just isn't all that important to me.” Al McGuire

And good things about Crean two years ago in an interview I posted here.

Wes last night has great things to say about a guy he called WOJ.

Buzz did great work with Jimmy. And Lazar. And Wes. etc. Strange dude but a simply phenomenal coach.
