@GaryParrishCBS Sources have told @CBSSports that former UCLA coach Ben Howland is expected to be involved at Marquette.

Wouldn't be a bad move.

Buzz Williams left Marquette for a variety of reasons, sources told ESPN. One of the biggest was new league/new TV package.

the troubling part is he likely does not view it as a lateral move.

Frankly, I think you may very well end up better off. Hope you get someone how wants to play a more uptempo style. You are going to have a lot of options. Hope your administration makes a solid choice. Not Ben Howland, however. No retreads.

Have fun rebuilding that crap program Buzz. You were given a strong Marquette program, never actually built it yourself.

Sick of this s***.

Hopkins would be great, but I see him going back to Cuse when Boeheim retires.
