LET ME BE THE FIRST TO WELCOME BUZZ WILLIAMS!!

[LastWarrior]

Can't say you were my first choice or second choice (Bennett & Lowery) but i'll support ya!  Those better be some hell of good recruits you're bringing in!

[🏀]

Welcome, what will you do with the (hopefully) $1 million we are saving by hiring your ass?

[groove]

lazy hire

[drewm88]

Welcome Buzz. Count me as a doubter who can't wait to cheer you on your way to making me look dumb!

[mugoose]

I really hope Buzz has some commits for a real staff as there are a lot of reasons to dislike this decision.

Second. Let's see what the guy is made of. I hope like hell we'll all be eating crow this time next year.

The Buzz Williams Show with Denis Krause.

I don't know which one I dislike the most, Buzz or Krause.

[TallTitan34]

I shall support you Buzz Williams!  Welcome!

Think he drinks Pepsi?

[MR.HAYWARD]

its not our job to agree or disagree...it is our job to support!!

Welcome to MU Buzz let's hope you go down in the great line of MU coaches such as Hickey, MCGuire, raymonds, Majerus,and Oneill

It's not?

[bs4173]

Also, some would argue that great line of coaches kind of stops at McGuire...

[Marquette_g]

Buzz - I wish you all the best and you have my support.

Now go get a stud-filled 2009 recruiting class (maybe one or two players taller than 6'5")

[Chicago_inferiority_complexes]

No, it's not your job to disagree. Your only job is to shut up and take it, just like every other decision this University makes.

Now go open up your checkbook.

AMEN... that's the Marquette way!!

[bs4173]

The sad thing is that this was the MU administration's perfect chance to being mending fences with discouraged fans. Unless Buzz brings home a BE title, a deep run in the NCAA tourney or something of the sorts (especially given that he has 4 great players on the court), it's going to get harder and harder for Marquette's administration to gain ANY trust from sports boosters.

At least they've done great things academically?

[THEGYMBAR]

I want to be the first to tell Buzz Williams to buzz off. To big of a gamble. Funny thing is I bet this guy would take the job for $250K. We did not need Dick Strong to authorize this hire. Soda revenue at the girls games to pay this stiff.

[Fox Valley Warrior]

Boy you have a lot of built up anger!!!
You could be totally right and you could be way off,but for God sakes
let the man try do do his job before you rip the living crap out of him.
I hope your not in thr HR field.

If Buzz is our head cowboy, it's time to circle the wagons and fight like a team.  If he's our guy, then there is no good in not supporting him and the team and potential recruits who are looking for uniformity.

If he's the guy, it's time to unite. WE are Marquette.  And, that includes Buzz.

Let's GO MARQUETTE!

[mwbauer7]

Buzz will take us to infinity (the BE Championship) and BEYOND!

Spot on. Some of us would do well to follow the example that the fine young men who have been suiting up in Marquette colors the last three years have set in the past few days.

[Jumping Jesuit]

And here I thought we had a good shot at landing Roy Williams after UNC's game against Kansas.  But seriously, I welcome Buzz and hope he continues the success we have seen thus far.

[only a warrior]

as the Talking Heads song says.... "We're on the road to nowhere".....

[Marquette_TEE]

I still don't like the choice, but he seems like a good guy.  Don't good guys finish last?
