Never stop recruiting.
Toto, we're not at Duke anymore.
Creating the culture you want takes time.
Even if you think you have the best plan, not everybody is going to buy in.
The Big East is a big boy league.
The refs don't respect first year coaches with losing records.
Get more players.   
Rome wasn't built in a day.
Never stop learning.

Hardly consider Levin baggage and NN was committed before Wojo arrived. Interesting comment.

Never follow a Buzz Williams or K Sampson program

If Wojo can bench press more than 80% of team, get on the recruiting trail asap ✅

High school player ratings aren't worth a cup of coffee

A few things that he learned this year:

Losing sucks.

Losing sucks.

Losing big is embarrassing.    

His MU b-ball program needs to get better on defense.

Wojo learned:

  1) The best fans in the world post on Scoop.

  2) Cleaning up after a nuclear war -- when all your recruits sans one abandon you -- is never easy.

  3) Eight scholarship basketball players on your team is a recipe for disaster.

  4) You are only as good as the next class you recruit.

  5) Marquette fans are still living in 1977.

++ Consult former prep basketball players before making any decision.

++ Never bench a guy just for dogging it at practice.

++ Dole out playing time based upon high school ranking.

++ If you're gonna throw a player under the bus, make sure his name is Derrick Wilson.

++ If you ever want to make the Final Four, bring Magic Dawson back pronto.

Levin transferred from another school and then transfer from MU. Wojo definitely missed something on this one.

He took a flier on a guy who appeared worthy of it, and didn't work our. So what?

If he did his homework he wouldn't have taken a flyer on him.  I think he's realizing he needs to be selective despite a rebuild in progress.  He wasted time and effort on Levin and Nick that IMO could have been avoided.  He's learning. It's my honest answer to the question asked

I hope that the one thing he learned is that he has the skills, the capability, the support and the team around him to quickly turn MU into a successful program.

Learn listen be smarter than your own ideas ..... Throw away your cookie cutter!  Season could've been a whole lot better with the personnel you had in the beginning communicate better with your new family .... It took coach k a while to get where he is and in the beginning the duke faithful wanted him fired!  .... Forget what you think duke is .... You're at MARQUETTE now! .... You let 2 get away!
