INDIVIDUAL
INSTRUCTION Marquette basketball student-athletes separate themselves from the rest through
personal individual instruction. Marquette Basketball's Skill Development Program is designed to help a player show constant improvement in different areas of his game while helping to assure that he is staying ahead of the competition. Regardless of position, the MU staff coaches every player to be the best he can be. Marquette players are reminded on a consistent basis,
“every day in every way, get better and better” and “players are made, not born.” Perhaps no player signifies the staff’s ability to develop talent better than
senior forward LAZAR
HAYWARD.
Primarily a reserve in 2006-07 as a freshman, Hayward enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in 2007-08, resulting in all-conference accolades. The Buffalo, N.Y., native established himself as one of the top players in the league as a junior after finishing among the conference leaders in several categories.

CAMP2009
he Marquette University men's basketball team concluded its second “Boot Camp" this past October, capping 10 days’ worth of intense conditioning workouts at the Al McGuire Center.
“Boot Camp” consisted grueling conditioning work twice a day, with all results based on strict time standards. Each of the players who participated in the sessions worked together as a team and if one player didn't make the time, no one on the team received credit for completing that segment. At the conclusion of the final day, head coach Buzz Williams distributes official “Boot Camp” T-shirts. Only those who have completed the grueling program are allowed to wear the shirts. 12

The sports medicine department places it emphasis on functional/integrated training. This form of training allows us to focus on the complete body of the student-athlete, while focusing primarily on core strengthening and core stability. This newly focused area of sports medicine is likely to minimize the occurrence of overuse injuries, poor muscular control and muscle imbalances. As a result, this allows the student-athlete to perform and train at optimum levels.

A QUALITY
EDUCATION
Marquette is a Catholic and Jesuit University Marquette is a Catholic, Jesuit university dedicated to serving God by serving our students and contributing to the advancement of knowledge. OUR MISSION is the search for truth, the discovery and sharing of knowledge, the fostering of personal and professional excellence, the promotion of a life of faith, and the development of leadership expressed in service to others. All this we pursue for the greater glory of God and the common benefit of the human community.
EXCELLENCE Our students, whether traditional or non-traditional, undergraduate, graduate or professional, come to Marquette University to share our commitment to the pursuit of excellence in all things as a lifelong endeavor. They come to join a community whose members — faculty, staff, students, trustees, alumni and friends alike — believe that education must encompass the whole person: spiritual and moral as well as intellectual, the heart as well as the mind.
FAITH OUR VISION is to provide a Catholic, Jesuit education that is genuinely transformational, so that our students graduate not simply better educated but better people, and to do so with such excellence that when asked to name the three or four best Catholic universities in America, people will include Marquette as a matter of course.
As a Catholic university, we are committed to the unfettered pursuit of truth under the mutually illuminating powers of human intelligence and Christian faith. Our Catholic identity is expressed in our choices of curricula, our sponsorship of programs and activities devoted to the cultivation of our religious character, our ecumenical outlook, and our support of Catholic beliefs and values.
LEADERSHIP
MU RANKS AMONG NATION’S ELITE UNIVERSITIES
As a Jesuit university, Marquette embodies the intellectual and religious traditions of the Society of Jesus.Through an academically rigorous, values-centered curriculum, our students receive a firm grounding in the liberal arts, preparation for work in a world of increasing complexity and diversity, and formation for life as ethical and informed leaders in their religious, cultural, professional and civic communities.
Marquette University ranks 77th among the top national universities in the 2009 edition of America's Best Colleges, released by U.S. News & World Report. Marquette was once again one of only 25 universities recognized for service learning under “Programs to Look For.” Service learning programs involve volunteer work in the community as an instructional strategy, enriching the classroom experience.

"I came to Marquette University wanting to be a basketball player, and I got that and a lot more. The years I spent at MU were some of my best years ... in basketball, the classroom, on campus, ... everywhere. You cannot beat the Marquette experience!" — D o c R i ve r s
Glenn “Doc” Rivers became the sixth former Marquette player to claim an NBA Championship when he guided the Boston Celtics to the title in 2007-08. The championship was the first in 22 years for the storied franchise. An All-American at Marquette in 1982, Doc closed out his career with 1,234 points and still ranks prominently among the school's all-time leaders in points, assists and steals. Following his college days, Rivers enjoyed a 13-year career in the NBA playing for the Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Clippers, New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs. During the course of his career, he averaged 10.9 points, 5.7 assists and 3.0 rebounds. Rivers was selected to play in the 1988 NBA All-Star Game and was honored by the Pro Basketball Writers with the 1990 J. Walter Kennedy Citizenship Award. Following his retirement in 1996, Rivers joined TNT as a basketball analyst and served in that capacity until June 1999, when he was named the head coach of the Orlando Magic. In four-plus seasons at the helm of the Magic, he directed the club to three playoff appearances and in 2000 was awarded the Red Auerbach Trophy as the NBA’s Coach of the Year.

L L A B
I would hope that a successful season is not predicated on a specific number of wins. I would hope that a successful season is that every single member of our staff added value to our players as humans, and that our staff helped facilitate that our players had success academically. For the 13 men who have chosen to come to Marquette, their decision was based on more than basketball. The coaches and support staff that I’ve hired — their decision was based on more than basketball. We, as a program, are part of an institution that is much bigger in the realm of what life is about than a specific number of games we win. Of course we want to win as many games as we can, but what our program is about is much deeper and more involved than how many games we win.
A
We want our program to be a microcosm of life. Life is much bigger than the game, but what they are able to learn from the game, will have lasting impact. ‘Character Revealed’ is the cornerstone of everything we do at Marquette University Men’s Basketball!
The relationship must have the right foundation, so that as it continues to evolve, everyone involved in the process is on the same page. Like any other successful relationship you have, people must know you are “REAL.” You can only have those types of relationships, when all parties involved are truthful. I am going to tell the truth whether it is during a timeout of a game, or while conducting a home visit, during practice, or over the phone. The relationships built, are built in a way to last. They are not built to last until signing day in one manner, and then from that point forward the relationship is changed to a completely different manner.
What will constitute a successful season for you?
T
I believe that how we operate on a daily basis, and what we emphasize, will be the traits the players carry forward once they leave here. At the end of each day, month, year, decade, and lifetime, your character will always overshadow your accomplishments, whether good or bad. How their “stories” develop, I trust will be somewhat molded by the lessons we teach while they are here. “Character Revealed” is seen in a myriad of ways in everything we do, not just what we do on the court.
In our profession, I do not believe what we do on a daily basis is ‘recruiting.’ What we do is all based on building trusting relationships. Once the relationship begins, the potential student-athlete, his parents, and those in his sphere of influence must have complete trust in each other from that point forward.
These are traits that will enhance each player’s life for a lifetime. We want to build relationships from the start, where everyone is aware, that this is not about a basketball experience, but a life experience.
E
I want our players to have that same belief as well. I have been absolutely fanatical in my tenure thus far, and will continue to be, about “Character Revealed.” Our institution is about more than academics and our basketball program is about more than just the game. We have spent exponentially more time thus far in my tenure talking about life issues, in comparison to talking about basketball. I am much more concerned with what each of our player’s “stories” will be as a husband, as a father and as a co-worker 10 years from now, 20 years from now, than I am about any game we are going to play.
I have never viewed myself as a “recruiter.” I think it is an overused term. An example of a tremendous recruiter in my opinion, would be those individuals responsible for bringing the top pediatric specialists in the world to Milwaukee to benefit the patients at Children’s Hospital. Their recruiting efforts are paramount to the quality of care the hospital can provide. ‘Recruiting,’ is typically based on one-time transactions.
remain eligible. I demand that each player participates in community service, not self-service. I demand that each player is on time for every appointment, not just practice. I demand that each player works hard every day, not just game day.
K
As I said at the press conference on April 8, I am not concerned with my reputation, I am only concerned with my character.
You have earned a reputation as a tremendous recruiter. What have you found to be the most important aspects to continually developing new relationships?
S
You immediately established “Character Revealed” as the foundation for the program under your guidance. Why is the focus placed on those two words so important to the players and their development both in life, as well as on the court?
B E T T E
a. Treat people the right way
Q
U
b. Build genuine relationships: not based on selfishness, but based on the right things, no matter who they are, or how they can help you c. Be 100 percent honest, 100 percent of the time, with 100 percent of the people you come in contact with and Work, Work, Work!

Every step along the way I have always felt extremely fortunate, and grateful for the relationships I developed with coaches, players, parents, and the administration. Each institution that I worked at has played an important role in developing who I am, as a coach, as well as a husband and father.
“There is no magic pill.” I think often times, no matter the profession, people want to know the secret. They want to know how to skip some of the steps required to get to the top. Partly because I didn’t know what this profession entailed when I began, as I continued to advance, I realized that the lessons I learned from starting at the bottom were critical in my development. As you build a team, as you build a career, having a foundation that is constructed the exact right way, is paramount to success in my opinion. There is no possible way to predict what your path will be and I am the perfect example of that. But with that being said, I also believe in the core of who I am, “there is no magic pill.” There is not a secret. There is not a shortcut that will serve you well over the long haul. The answer is this:

I have been incredibly blessed over the course of my career, to work for not only excellent coaches, but even better people. Having said that, I also firmly believe that each step in my career, has only been because of God’s grace. I knew I wanted to coach, so there wasn’t any alternative as far as a profession. I just never knew that when I walked into the Navarro College gym and introduced myself to Coach Orr 19 years ago, and asked him if I could sit in the top bleacher and take notes during practice, that becoming the head coach at Marquette University would ever come to fruition from that starting point.
One of the traits I think that has been beneficial to me regardless of my locale, or my title, has been:

Not many coaches begin their careers in the manner you did, sweeping the floors at a small junior college. What is one of the most important traits that has been key in helping you get to where you are today?

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT BUZZ WILLIAMS “Buzz’s early success is of no surprise to me. I have felt for the last eight or nine years that Buzz was destined to be one of the best young coaches in the country and I think he is well on his way to proving that true.”
“Buzz Williams is that guy who seemingly can beam himself from one place to another on the recruiting trail. He’s surrounded himself with hungry assistants and these guys get after it. In my years of knowing Buzz, he’s always had a plan, executed his strategy and dedicated himself to being successful. As the head coach at Marquette, his preparation and attention to detail show on a national stage.”
George H. Raveling Director Nike Global Basketball Sports Marketing
Dave Telep Scout.com
“Buzz has as much passion as a coach than anyone I’ve come across. Knowledge plus his enthusiasm equals success and Buzz has the right formula.” "Buzz Williams did a super job in his first season as head coach. Williams' enthusiasm and energy is contagious, and Marquette fans should be thrilled to have him on the sidelines running the program."
Doc Rivers Head Coach Boston Celtics
"With Buzz's energy, tireless work ethic, attention to detail, and ability to recruit, Marquette is sure to be a force in the BIG EAST for years to come."
Dan Shulman ESPN Basketball
Dick Vitale ESPN Basketball Analyst
“After just one season at MU, Buzz has won the hearts of the Marquette family, players, students, alumni and fans. He combines great talent, personal character and a relentless work ethic for the good of the young men and basketball program he leads. Buzz often says that the program will ‘always be about the players’ and he walks the walk in helping them excel, not just at basketball, but in school and life as well.”

Aki is the best teammate in our program! He is always trying to find ways to help our players on and off the floor, and does the same thing with our staff. During his time here, because of his unselfishness, his responsibilities have continued to increase, because he is involved in so many ways.

“Adding another coach to our staff who has been a head coach was important, but adding a former Division I head coach to our staff was a definite bonus. Having said that, we have yet to hire anyone based exclusively on their resume and we did not do that with Bart. What I liked about his resume, was that it suggested that he has had to fight and claw every day, just to figure out a way to have success, and not only did he solve those issues, he had more success than anyone thought possible. He represents what is important to our program, not only on the floor, but off the floor as well. He has already made his presence felt here in a variety of ways, with our staff and our players, and I anticipate that his impact will continue to grow.”

His wealth of experience, with the team and his own practice, allows him to be prepared for a multitude of needs, and the versatility that allows is a tremendous asset when dealing with a team environment. Dr. Maccoux’s efforts not only address the short term treatments, but also go a long way in proactive work to help ensure a consistently high level of performance on the court.”

ROBERT A.
WILD S.J.
R
obert A. Wild, S.J., is the 22nd president of Marquette University. He began his duties as chief executive on June 17, 1996. Father Wild is building on Marquette's core strengths: an academically rigorous, values-centered curriculum; solid, practical preparation for work in a world of increasing complexity and diversity; formation for life of students as ethical and informed leaders in their religious, cultural, professional and civic communities; and graduating women and men who will dedicate their lives to the service of others. Under his leadership, the university in 2000 embraced a statement of shared vision for the future:
"Our vision is to provide a Catholic, Jesuit education that is genuinely transformational so that our students graduate not simply better educated but better people, and to do so with such excellence that when asked to name the three or four best Catholic universities in America, people will include Marquette as a matter of course." Marquette has established clear, measurable goals and specific strategies to achieve this long-term vision. Under Father Wild's leadership, the university has improved academic quality, increased and stabilized enrollment and enhanced partnerships with the City of Milwaukee and community groups. In 2005 Marquette completed the most successful comprehensive campaign in the history of the university raising a total of $357 million. Marquette is committed to updating academic facilities for students in the 21st century: a new School of Dentistry opened in 2002, the John P. Raynor, S.J., Library was dedicated in 2003, and the Al McGuire Center, a practice facility for student-athletes, opened in 2004. Father Wild and his Marquette colleagues remain committed to providing students with a Catholic, Jesuit education in an atmosphere of care and faith.
108
Immediately prior to assuming the Marquette presidency, from 1992 to 1996 Father Wild served as president of the Weston Jesuit School of Theology in Cambridge, Mass., a graduate school which trains clergy and laity for leadership roles in the Catholic Church. From 1985 to 1991 he served as provincial superior of the Chicago Province of the Society of Jesus, directing the activities of Jesuits in northern Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and southwestern Ohio. A biblical scholar and author of two books and numerous scholarly articles, Father Wild taught theology at Marquette from 1975 to 1984. He has been a member of the university's Board of Trustees since 1990. Father Wild is a native of Chicago. He holds a doctoral degree in New Testament and Christian origins from Harvard University, a master's degree in classical languages, a bachelor's degree in Latin from Loyola University Chicago, and a licentiate in theology from the Jesuit School of Theology in Chicago. He has held visiting professorships at Loyola University Chicago and the Pontifical Biblical Institute in Rome. Father Wild began his teaching career at St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati, where he taught Latin, Greek and speech and debate from 1964 to 1967. He entered the Society of Jesus in 1957 and was ordained to the priesthood in 1970. Father Wild is a member of the boards of the University of Detroit Mercy, Saint Joseph's University, the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities, the Big East Conference, the Wisconsin Association of Independent Colleges and Universities (past board chair), the Greater Milwaukee Committee and the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce.

From Marquette Head Coach Al McGuire:

(immediately following game) “I think they fell apart in the second half. We hung in there.” (How do you feel?) “Emotionally drained. I’m pleased for the guys. It doesn’t seem real. Ya know, you think about something like this, but ... I’ve always been an alley fighter. I don’t usually get into the silk lace situations. It seems like it is preordained, but I don’t like to use the words of TV announcers, the cliches.”
A
L
(in the interview room) “We put in the four corners just yesterday in the hour allotted us for practice. We figured to run it and look for the good shot, keeping the big men underneath. For a while, both teams were playing a chess game.”
T
B
“I was not emotional until a five-second count triggered me. I trigger easily. As a coach, you have to be constantly alert. Right now, I feel washed out.
E
“Once the avalanche came and we were tied, I tried to stop the avalanche by delays and I called timeouts. Usually we try to do it by contact lens timeouts or something like that. You have to stop the momentum no matter what.”
From North Carolina Player Mike O’Koren: “I knew that we were going to come back, but I didn’t expect it to be that quick. And I knew that once we got the lead, we would go into the four corners and get them to chase us. But Marquette played the four corners smart. They laid back and didn’t foul us.”
All-Tournament Team Mike O’Koren (North Carolina); Butch Lee (Marquette); Cedric Maxwell (UNC Charlotte); Bo Ellis (Marquette); Jerome Whitehead (Marquette); Walter Davis (North Carolina). Outstanding Player: Butch Lee

From North Carolina Player Phil Ford: “I don’t want anybody to quote me as saying that my elbow affected my play out there or cost us the game. But, I feel that I have been useless to the team for the last two games. Anytime that you play for the national championship, that should give you enough to win.”

From North Carolina Head Coach Dean Smith: “We went into the four corners to get them out of a zone. That’s a great zone with 6-9 players - Bo Ellis, Bernard Toone and Jerome Whitehead - in there. (Bruce) Buckley went in for a layup and either Bo or Whitehead blocked it. Then they went into their delay game. They hit all of their free throws down the stretch. Of course, that is what we did to get here.

From Marquette Player Butch Lee: (On what it is like playing for McGuire) “It’s not bad for the older guys. They know what to expect. For the freshmen, it gets rough. You have to get some good ear plugs.”

From Marquette Player Bo Ellis: (On McGuire’s last game) “It’s a super way to go, for him and for us. I’m glad for him, I’m glad for me, I’m glad for the team, I’m glad for the people of Milwaukee and even for those who said we wouldn’t get this far.”
K
“At the end of the game, I sat there and thought of all the locker rooms, the dirty jocks, the PALS, and the other things that a New Yorker street fighter knows when growing up.”
