If I had time, I'd visit a Maryland hoops message board ...

... and make sure they know what will happen the next 3-4 years. In particular, I would tell them, "Over the next 3-4 years, don't get frustrated that no one on your team is over 6-8, ignore the mumbo-jumbo, and enjoy a trip to the Sweet 16 right before he leaves. Do NOT give this guy any of your money after year 3. He'll use it to recruit players for his next team. "Your Year 4 team is going to be killer, but that's it. Don't get your hopes up." :)

Ol' Buzzard. What a trip. Cicada like, in his arrivals.

The Buzz Manifesto is incomprehensible

Grudges don't look good on anyone.**

His teams historically struggle in his first year.
Chris ColemanAdmin 03/05/26 09:56 AM ET
He may do this on purpose. Makes year 2 look better. Year 1 is "culture" yr**
SynthHokie 03/05/26 04:04 PM ET
The only reason he went 16-14 at A&M? Boots.**
Will StewartAdmin 03/05/26 01:26 PM ET

I'd kill for a year-4 Buzz team once every 5 years. Because it's been 37

So, the Maryland fan base is pretty knowledgeable and brutal
Vippie1 03/05/26 12:41 PM ET
Buzzworld. Now that would be some kind of theme park!

Years down the road. Kelsey would be a great NBA coach. **
st_andrew 03/05/26 02:33 PM ET
He'll be there a good 2-3 more years. I could see him end up at a place
reestuart 03/05/26 10:59 AM ET
That man could sell ice to Eskimos, and sand to desert dwellers! 😂**
HokieNL 03/05/26 01:24 PM ET
The Big 10 is the last league where you would want a 6-8 center.**
jrc3rd 03/05/26 08:57 AM ET
He’s got 6’10 and 6’8 wings coming in next year.
GoldCoast 03/05/26 09:09 AM ET
And they'll be top 10 in the nation in knowing the national anthem**
GCHokie34 03/05/26 09:25 AM ET
