Where do you think Marquette will be? In the top 25?

There will be no reason for us to be ranked pre-season next year.

Think you could be wrong about that. Our defensive pedigree should garner national acclaim,  especially since we lose our best shot blocker and steal man

Losing them could improve our defense. Defensive stats are only occasionally linked with actually being a good man defender.

Watching other tournament teams this week speaks loudly to me that we are a long, long ways from becoming a good defensive team.  Hate to say it, but we are slow, slow, slow.

Speed has nothing to do with it. The Badgers are just as slow. Virginia is slow and maybe the top defensive team in the county every year. Nova isn't overly fast.

Wally S made a comment at the halftime of one of the games. Essentially that in college he has never been coached so intensely on defense.  That coaches are so detail oriented at the college level and sweat the small stuff - directly impacting playing time. 

I don't get the sense that our culture mirrors that...

Some players cry that Wojo sits players for the little things, others cry that Wojo turns a blind eye to the little things.  Can't please everyone I guess.

There's a difference between speed/quickness and tempo. I don't think he's talking about tempo.

Right.  There are very few players on Wisconsin that are quick.  Same with Virginia.  Or Nova.

The Happs, Hayeses, Harts, Jenkinses, Parenteses, etc. of the world aren't exactly the St. John's athletes of the world.

Well Dickie V said we are three seed next season. So obviously we will be ranked in the top 12.

You are correct, sir, and I believe that two of the above teams are no longer playing in the NCAA tournament.

I'm not crying at all - do you think we have a defensive culture that fits that description?  I just thought it was an interesting perspective but feel free to attack/dismiss - your prerogative.

I don't think we'll be preseason top 25 but throughout the season i think we could be in the top 25. All depends on the defense, we already know we can score

Given that our opinions don't mean a thing, I'm going to go bold and say we will be #1.

Yep, you nailed it...that's what we'll miss Luke for, his defense.

You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Next season is going to be a fun season.
If Sacar improved that much in his redshirt season he will be a solid player for us. We need Jamal,Eke and Theo to put some muscle on, same with Harry so they can bang with the big east bigs. We all know Duane and Haanif will be putting in work this summer to get better. Sam hauser should try to put some weight on and improve his driving. I think Rowsey will get better at finishing in the paint. Im not the coach i just think these are things the players should do or work on

Doubt we'll be ranked to start the season. Think we will be very solid and very well could be ranked at some point next season, but not to start.

I think Lunardi does a preseason bracketology. My bet is we'll be in the 7 or 8 range.

Doesn't really matter though. All that matters is where we are on Selection Sunday.
