To recap and piecing things together, seems like Gene Smith flew to Roanoke
to meet with Buzz. I does not sounds like Buzz said no but it sounds like what Buzz said turned off Ohio State a bit. Not sure if it was money or other factors. Buzz was definitely still on their list but it seems like those other factors lowered him on their list. I think Buzz was still interested but whatever he said to OSU made him a less attractive candidate. After their meeting it seems like OSU moved on to other candidates - Hoiberg, McDermott, Brown, Holtmann. Interesting situation.
Buzz seems like a guy who will always listen when there is a good opportunity but he is not going to jump ship unless its a really good situation for him and his family.
