Hangin' at the Al / Re: Watched CU Game Again

This. I watched this closely as I had bets on his rebounding overs in both tourney games (he had 6 or 7 in the first half of WK and only 1 or 2 in the 2nd half).

In both games he caused a TON of MU rebounds, Joplin was the main beneficiary in the WK game. He almost always cleared out the lane without ever jumping. Having said that, he did have me wondering a bit about the health of the knee. On the typical jump ball rebound opportunities he seemed tentative and much more prone than usual to try to tap/swat the ball out to the perimeter on balls that seemed like he could have just grabbed. I know he’s excellent at that, it just caught my eye as unnecessary a little more than usual.

Otherwise I completely agree that this is a bit overblown. He had a very efficient game vs CU. Not his best but we dont win that game without him
Are you saying Oso put some money down on the under for this prop bet?

This will probably be the last year for these type of prop bets in the NCAa. Many states have outlawed them

How many quality box outs that led to one of 5 TKO boards, 5 Ross boards, or 4 Kam boards? Oso was the one putting a body on Lampkin every time.  Preventing him from getting an offensive rebound is just as good as grabbing one yourself, it just doesn't show up in a box score.

Which one? The Ellensons? The Hausers? The Burtons? It was a steam of poor personality and personnel management.

It was a steady stream of bs from Buzz to Wojo.. Just dumb stuff

Not sure a dying parent is on the same level as the crazy overbearing sports parents of the other two.

I'm driving up from Houston on Thursday and can't wait for tip off.  I will stay after the big win for the Sunday contest.  The last time we were in this position - Washington DC, 2013 - I attended the win over Miami in the Sweet 16 followed by a vanquishing at the hands of Syracuse in the Elite 8.  If I remember correctly, Obama was at the game and brought us horrible luck in a 55-39 defensive snoozer.

He was.  I was also at that game.  Ouch.

There was only one family that caused "in-house problems."

No doubt.

As much as I love Shaka, I wish we had never gone through the Wojo years. It was rough, as few players developed and the in-house problems with the boys was just a nightmare.

All that said, I feel we're headed back to where we were in the 1970s. Another golden era of Marquette basketball!!!
