I mean the game is the game. This is nothing right?
We know how far Buzz recruits can get us so I'm not too upset. Most likely a blessing in disguise.
I tried my best to make this post not sound a-holeish and this was the best I could do

I mean that's pretty much where I'm at as well. Bucky and Buzz weren't recruiting the same pool of players.
LOL. I like him telling the story like he hadn't made the decision to leave while holding the MOU. Dude was gone the second that Maryland offered.
But I'm not sure what Buzz could have done differently in that scenario. Just poor timing all around.

No one who Buzz would want is good enough to play for us anymore.
That's how I look at it.

This is something every coach does
If Buzz hadn't left Rice would be an Aggie. That's the recruiting world in hoops

Myles Rice shoots 41% FG and 32% on 3's, which is an improvement on his 27% on 3's the year prior to that, as a 6'2" guard. I'm good.

not saying those are great numbers but for context Wade was a career 37% | 32% shooter
Screw Buzz
Not surprised.
My life would be substantially better if I didn't have to listen to Buzz Williams talk again

Man of honor!
Solo
In their scrimmage payne went for 26-9 and Turkson 10-11
Against the UMBC Retrievers and they won by 1 point lol… Maryland fans were mad that they looked bad offensively and allowed too many open three's lol, they better buckle up
For someone that can't coach offense and gives up too many open threes, he sure did win a lot of games here
Don't forget he also fielded a team of undersized orphans he found scavenging for food on the side of the road.
Truly incredible.

Buzz shouldn't have had the guy come on an official visit to A&M knowing he was probably leaving? That was the wrong thing that he did?"
Should we be mad?

Water under the bridge.
Don't hate the player, hate the game.

I don't know why we would
Not even game 1 and Bucky seems more Aggie and excited about A&M than dour buzz ever did…
I owe Buzz an apology. I was critical of his recruiting efforts at A&M. It appears he was recruiting after all

Fake Christian.
Buzz-ball was kind of painful to watch, IMHO.
But at least he wasn't recruiting his own players while playing for the national championship. There's that.

It amazes me that there are so many buzz apologists here. Is it just because they were so certain he was never going to leave and was our basketball savior that they can't handle it mentally how wrong they were about him? Just glad he moved on on his own and we didn't have to buy him out.
lol wut? He did really really well here. But his run was up and he got a lifeline

Agree. This is honestly just the circumstance that is going to exist when you have a coach switching to a roughly equivalent job. Some coaches will be able to smooth over the awkwardness of such a situation better than others.
Hardworking, Unselfish, Fearless
It's nice to have a coach who is on board, and a team player, and suave and classy and does and says all the right things, but there is only one thing that truly matters to me over all the other things and that is whether Texas A&M is winning games when we step onto the basketball court, and we definitely did that under Buzz Williams albeit after a rough start. Its not about liking him now, or whatever, its an acknowledgment that he got the job done here.
I know many of you want to boil down everything to some metric like "making the sweet sixteen" and label him a failure or whatever, but anybody paying attention can see that he was better coach and a bigger winner than many coaches who make it to the sweet sixteen once or twice.

Sure, it's part of the game now.
But for him to admit to it like this? What a chode.
All that bull**** get better, walk the Christian life stuff he espoused as his principles and values as the code for Buzzball?
I hope we get to play them in the NCAAs and Bucky stuffs his punk ass in his book club locker.
