Article on Wilson and Burton

Digger Phelps?

No, our beloved AD.

Worth repeating......

"Truthfully, I didn't want to go to Marquette," Burton said. "But I fell in love with (coach) Buzz (Williams). And the more I thought about it, I just thought I could become the face of Wisconsin basketball."

Wilson agreed.

"All the way through, we both said we probably wouldn't be going to Marquette," Wilson said. "But Buzz was different than most coaches.

"He never talked to me about basketball. It was all about life and what I'd be doing 20 years from now. And Marquette is just a big family."

I think ultimately Derrick will be backup player for MU for 4 years. Nothing wrong with that. I think you give the keys to Duane(like Crean did with DJ) and live and die with him. His upside down the road is worth the intial growing pains.


You can't start DW, Vander, O'Tule, Jamil and Juan. Not enough scoring. No playmakers. No shooters.
