Minnesota paper reports that TM is sticking with Marquette

Great news.  I am glad we have more proof that is is in fact, staying at MU.

what have i said the last 3 posts regarding this topic?? I have connections with the team and told you he'd be back 2 weeks ago!

what exactly are your connections other than eavesdropping @ humphrey?

being around the Al as well as others close to the team.

I think it's safe to say he is coming back.  What have you heard around the Al and Humphrey about TM lately?

same as what i've posted, i feel like the blind guy from the Bible who no one believed was who he said he was...i've stated that TM is coming back for the past week...the facts haven't changed, Rosiak backs what I said about TM not knowing where the rumors were started and that he was in shock when he heard them.  One week ago, you could have read the same thing from me in a post on this very board...

perhaps the Buzz hiring wasn't the disaster some of us thought it was.

Agreed. The typical doomsdayers predictions are not quite panning out. Good for Buzz!

Out of curiosity, and I haven't seen them but they could be there, has there been anyone here that has predicted doom?  I guess actually I do remember one post that said something like enjoy next year because that will be the last good year we have or something, but I honestly can't remember anyone predicting doom.  I've seen a lot of posters say we could have gotten someone more experienced, someone with a wow factor, someone that makes you say "awesome", someone with a proven track record as a head coach but I honestly don't recall anyone here saying doom and gloom is coming. 

Those of us not thrilled with the process of the hiring are hoping like hell Buzz is the real deal, why wouldn't we?  Seriously.  I honestly don't think we'll know until 2 years from now because next year should be a stone cold lock of a good club even if Barry Switzer was coaching it.  We'll know a lot more after two seasons from now, unless next year goes unexpectedly which I doubt it will.
