Marquette’s Williams Talks Coaching Rumors… Sort Of

 Send This Story To A Friend

Marquette’s Buzz Williams is believed to be one of the leading “fall back” candidates in the Arkansas coaching search.  Why “fall back?”  Because most folks in the Natural State want Mike Anderson from Missouri to serve as the Hogs’ next coach.  But Williams’ name keeps popping up on candidate lists right alongside Mizzou’s Anderson.

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel asked him about the rumors involving Arkansas – and Texas Tech and Oklahoma — but the Texas native didn’t have much to say.  Well, that’s not exactly true.  He actually had a lot to say… but it was pretty much just off-topic rambling.

Summary: Williams says he wants the media to focus on his team, he doesn’t read the internet or the rumors that can be found there, and he’s not interested in talking about other jobs.

One thing Williams did not say during the Q&A: Nyuk, nyuk, nyuk.
