Buzz Williams
He was the Head Coach of the Marquette University Golden Eagles for many years before taking the Head Coach position at Virginia Tech
Williams began his head coaching career at the University of New Orleans during the 2006–07 season, where he quickly made an impact. However, it was his tenure at Marquette University from 2008 to 2014 that truly put him on the national radar. During his time at Marquette, Williams led the Golden Eagles to five consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, including a trip to the Elite Eight in 2013. His ability to recruit and develop talent, combined with his tactical expertise, made him a sought-after coach in the college basketball landscape.
In 2014, Williams took over the head coaching position at Virginia Tech, where he continued to build on his reputation as a program builder. Under his leadership, the Hokies made three consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, including a Sweet Sixteen run in 2019. His success at Virginia Tech earned him the opportunity to return to Texas A&M, where he had previously served as an assistant coach. Since taking over the Aggies' program, Williams has worked to restore the team to national prominence, focusing on player development and a strong defensive identity.
Throughout his career, Williams has been known for his relentless preparation and attention to detail. His coaching philosophy emphasizes hard work, discipline, and accountability, traits that have endeared him to both players and fans. Williams' ability to turn around struggling programs and lead them to success has made him one of the most respected coaches in the game today. His journey from assistant coach to head coach at some of the nation's top programs is a testament to his dedication and passion for the sport.
