Head Coach
Buzz Williams seems to know what he’s doing. In six years at Marquette, he went to five NCAA Tournaments, culminating in an Elite Eight run in 2013, and had a record of 139-69. In five years at Virginia Tech, taking over a much worse situation, he had a 100-69 record and made the NCAA Tournament in each of his last three years with a Sweet Sixteen run in 2019.
