Buzz Williams thinks this Syracuse team is the best

[dasher]

team he has ever coached against.

I hope our guys aren't reading some of this stuff. It's enough to mess with your mind.

I want to hear this on that Tuesday after the National Championship game in April.

I like all this positive press and everything, but that just sounds crazy.

not sure how to take some of this gushing praise from coaches. lots of times coaches do this, in part, to build up their own team.

Not usually a Buzz Williams fan. I do want to emulate his time out "speech" to his team when they were down 18-2 to Louisville. Supposedly he called time out and then said nothing, not one word, just looked at them for 30 seconds. They came back and won. I almost tried it last night when my 6th grade team got behind 12-0 after the 1st quarter. All I said was "Do you want to win?"... heads nod a couple yes's..."Then act like it" and I sat down. We won 27-19. I knew we were better than the other team so it wasn't a matter of x's and o's, just effort.

I was so hoping you lost something like 34-6. That would have been hilarious.

In any case, good job on the comeback.

I quit coaching youth football after this last season. 14 years, don't even have a kid who plays anymore. It was fun while it lasted but just got wore out.

Buzz hasnt been a head coach for very long so Im not sure how many great teams he has actually coached against. Now, if Calhoun, Ol Roy, Coach K and a few others were to say something like that, I would take more notice of it. Nice compliment, nonetheless. I still think the guy is bum, though.

I thought for sure thats what he was gonna say. "Do you want to win? Then act like it" and i sat down.

Then we lost 34-6.

This includes those Uconn, Villinova final four teams and the Louisville pitt syracuse ones from the 08-09 season. Had it not been for UNC or a bad Uconn/louisville matchup then one of those teams could of one it all in the toughest basketball season to date.

This also includes our 09-10 team (which says alot) and last years UNC team. Thats pretty big props.

This might get your blood boiling. These guys are a bunch of jealous morons. UNC last year was better than Cuse this year? LOL. These boys are hanging their hats on the big wins against us last year. Edit. Well I cant post the scout forum on here. but it's on the Marquette scout site.

But it was just coach speak they say. They can't face the truth. It's not a coincidence coaches are saying this, it's not just 1 or 2 or 3 or 4, it's been every coach they have faced has had something great to say.

BFD... a gratuitous platitude from one of the 3 stooges.

Love this post and plus one. That has that special feeling to it.
