So now what??

[Tugg Speedman]

Just announced ... Kalif Young to PC

Wally shown the door to make room for him and he did not show.

What other options do we have?

Because if we don't get someone better than Wally, Wojo made this team worse by cutting Wally and replacing him with nothing.

--------------

I'm having a hard time believing next year's team is better than last year's team.  And last year's team could not make the NIT with a lottery pick.

No.

[Tugg Speedman]

No.

You're wrong.  We are another 8 - 10 BE team, season over after second round loss in the BET

[MomofMUltiples]

We have at least four threads going on this topic, the chief one being the recruiting thread.  No need to start another one.

And Kalif Young would've made us...what?  Exactly?  Or Walter Ellenson?

Heise didn't start them, so he doesn't get credit for the Scoop Clicks.  So of course there was a reason for another thread!

A 6'9" power forward is the biggest need this team has. 

To be clear, I was OK with letting Wally go.  I took it as a sign that Wojo had some better "in the bag."  It is now looking like he had nothing, and worse, was deluding himself that he actually had something.

I know.  With the political board gone, he's got to find his clicks elsewhere.

No, not at all.

But yeah, the sky is falling, Wojo is in over his head, Wojo doesn't know where he stands, etc.

Actually I like Wojo.  But I'm not going to torture all logic to say this is fine or no big deal.  It is a big deal, that can only be salvaged with another player in the next few weeks.

It's these post season transfers that he whiffs on.  Shonn and Lee last year and Gill and Young this year.  And he compounded this year's whiff by dumping Wally when he had nothing.

Okay.  You're right.

we can do what the internet does best. play arm chair quarterback and make knee jerk reactions.

SO NOW WHAT??

1.  (and this has already happened) You get hysterical.

2.  Wojo prepares a roster of 12 pretty darn good players to play next season.

3.  Next year's team plays more like Villanova did last year, then Marquette did last year.

3.  Players who commit to Marquette for basketball know that basketball must be their top priority or they will not be kept on basketball scholarship.

4. Marquette is in a better position to land big men for the 2017 class due to more minutes being available.

What he had in the bag was douche, as in doichebag. Guess we will become Villanova next year, and go with 4 guards.

1. Katin Reinhardt
2. Matt Carlino
3. Young isn't a transfer
4. He lost out on Lee and Miller to two blue blood programs, I guess technically a whiff but hardly an unforgivable one
5. HOT TAKES!!!!

[Tugg Speedman]

We have two guys over 6'6" and they will never be on the floor at the same time. 

[GGGG]

If Wojo was primarily concerned about next year, I think Wally would have helped us more that Kalif would have.

[jficke13]

We should probably panic.

[KampusFoods]

We have two guys over 6'6" and they will never be on the floor at the same time.

We had two 6'11 guys start for us and play 28+ mins last season. One was 1st team all Big-East and a lottery pick. We missed the NIT.

Would have liked Kalif but he wasn't the piece that was gonna get us to the next level. Let's see how Fishy and the Shooters do. I for one think we have a better team next year. It's the year after that I'm worried about. 2017 is a yuge recruiting year.

[MU Fan in Connecticut]

So now what?  We play ball with who we got.

[Hubert Davis]

Wojo sucks.

[Dawson Rental]

Wojo sucks.

You just lost.

[uncle zeffy]

missed a golden opportunity...
