Marquette is the worst program in college BB
« on: February 15, 2017, 11:39:08 AM »
After losing 4 of the past 5 games, it's clear that Marquette is at an all-time low.

Wojo was the single worst hire in the history of the program. He's a fraud and a loser who doesn't know the first thing about coaching — which is why Coach K was so excited to finally get rid of him at Duke. If MU had hired the right coach, they'd be back in the Final Four by now. Probably even contending for the national championship.

Instead, this team will not only miss the NCAA tournament once again — an all-time record streak of futility — it's going to lose every game for the rest of the schedule and challenge DePaul for last place in the Big East (which, by the way, is at an all-time low and will never again be as good as it used to be). Odds are the conference will drop MU after the season and replace us with St. Louis.

Nobody wants to watch this team (ratings and attendance are at an all-time low). Nobody on the team wants to win. Nobody shows leadership. Nobody plays defense. Nobody is athletic. Nobody has improved — or will ever improve. Nobody in the administration cares about anything besides paying Wojo's humungous salary and spending outrageous sums of money on the basketball program (accountability is at an all-time low). Nobody sees the faintest hint of light at the end of the tunnel.

About the only thing to look forward to is the NCAA demoting Marquette to Division II basketball for failure to compete, or MU dropping the basketball program altogether just like it did with football (another one of the biggest failures of all time).

We'll see how we finish down the stretch. My advice is not to overreact to recent poor performances, the same way fans should have tempered their optimism following great performances against Creighton and Villanova. That's called recency bias, and doesn't necessarily reflect the current reality or predict the future with any accuracy.

Take your own advice maybe.

Not nearly subtle enough....it ain't bad, but it doesn't make me rethink whether or not I live in the Matrix.

Considering 6 conference wins would have us nowhere near DePaul or in last place


That shoulda been the giveaway

Whether you've read my posts or not, I didn't even think this was close.

I'm an optimist, a long-time backer of the MU basketball program and Wojo believer. If this wasn't clearly understood to be sarcastic, either:

1) I just plain suck at sarcasm;
2) The original post, meant to show how over-the-top and ridiculous the rampant pessimism on this site has been lately, hit closer to home than I realized; or
3) Sarcasm is dead.

Another take on this:

What if the sarcasm was the other way. Wojo is a diamond of many facets. We have NBA players in waiting. 5-0 down the stretch and elite 8 minimum...just you wait and see!

No way that troll would be believed yet Marcus' downside troll got some to bite and even had to post it was sarcasm.

I am also an optimist and mull around how a 4-1 finish might happen. And even daydream about how a sweet 16 could become reality this year! But the sad truth is, the negatives outweigh the positives and if I had to bet my paycheck it would be on a 2-3 finish.

The sad thing is if someone doesn't recognize that as sarcasm.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

This was funny. First good thread of the week. I think I see the sun coming out now.

I see a 30 point win on Saturday, and Newsie and I speaking Spanish and full of mamajuanna.

Our only hope is to put JJJ in as the point guard....and the center.  Sort of a Magic JJ Johnson point center.

Was that supposed to be in teal???

However, one salient point - since the new Big East formed, the only school Marquette has more wins than is DePaul. MU does have the 9th best record in the Big East the last 3 3/4 seasons.
