Marquette fans, 2005-2023: "God, the effing Badgers always have some guy come out of nowhere and they end up being good every year. Why can't we have that?"Some Marquette fans, 2022-present: "Sure some guys have developed and won a league title and got to a Sweet 16, but retaining and developing guys won't work. Gotta clear some room and hit the portal."
Agreed, the national media will be more aware this time around.
Yes, I guess more specifically I mean people outside the program, coaches or media. They have a much better feel for this team going into next year. Still lots of questions on how much progress will be made and the off season leaps players will make. But the floor for this team is high and no one will be picking us 9th. I think there is a question about the teamsceiling and we will see varying degrees of predictions for how good they can be. I’m in the optimistic group with Kam back. Worst case this is a top 25 team. Gold and Ross take an Oso like leap and they could be top ten.
Really interested to see how the offense looks with Nevada staying, but his two offensive savants in the NBA.
Ya idk why people are still complaining about this.Could shakas strategy become an issue? Sure. But so far it’s working. We are keeping everyone off note every year(unless they go pro) and we are having good teams.He’s trusting his talent evaluation and development.Now if we fast forward to this time 2026. And we’ve done two years of Ben, Chase, Tre, Zaide all not improving much. Yeah he may need to start being more flexible.But right now he’s earned the right to believe in a player like Zaide rather than run him off.
