He understands what's at stake, and he understands how important is to pull it all together. I think he's done a good job at Oklahoma, and I think, at this point, we need to respect and support the coach of Indiana University.
"William Quinn Buckner" is a former American professional basketball player and coach. He played collegiate basketball for the Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball/Indiana University Hoosiers, and was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks with the 7th pick of the 1976 NBA Draft. He had a ten-year NBA career for three different teams (the Bucks, the Boston Celtics, and the Indiana Pacers). Throughout his career he was a solid defensive player, and made the 2nd team All-Defense four times. In 1983-84 NBA season/1984, he won an NBA title with the Celtics. Buckner is one of only three players in history to have won titles at every level: high school, college, the NBA, and the Olympics. (Magic Johnson and Jerry Lucas are the others.)
In addition to his playing career, Buckner was the head coach of the Dallas Mavericks for one year, from 1993-94 NBA season/1993 to 1994. Currently, Buckner is a color analyst for the Indiana Pacers television broadcast team on Fox Sports Indiana. Buckner also was the play-by-play announcer on 989 Sports line of college basketball games for several years. He is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity.
