Scholarship table
Marquette is hurting. Losing to OK St is somewhere around #50 on Scholl's list of problems.
Apathy has set in for many of us. Been a fan for over 50 years and even during down times I always had the energy and desire to care about the program. Going into the Badger game has always been a fun time of year and trying my best to get jacked for the game.
So start a letter writing campaign and get him fired.
In isolation, no, but men's basketball success is always the clear and present #1 issue. Lack of basketball success leads to a lack of donations, season ticket holder decline, less postseason dollars incoming and thus less money to support the other programs. Marquette as a university has a wealth of other problems, but as far as the athletic department goes, men's basketball is the driver for everything.
Crean sucks
Wojo blows
Hmmmm awful strange that other coaches 'in the huddle' experience aren't what we get from Wojo. I promise, whatever he is drawing up isn't working either. Look no further than the results on the court. Is he worried that someone is going to steal his drawn up play in the next 15 seconds? Once they've run the play, it is on film forever anyway. Like, what is your logic here? He isn't giving away anything. Instead, he looks like Matt Foley without the table crash and the laughter.Let's put the idea to bed that he could possibly be giving anything away that any basketball coach won't figure out in the next two minutes.Yikes.
Letter writing worked for the Hausers. I still get as jacked as I did in the 90's when MU would be on TV 4-5 times a year. KO and the S-16 team. Trying to predict how few points a Deane team could score and still win. I don't plan my life around any sport besides MU hoops. I'm going to miss seeing the next two games live and that pisses me off. Wojo hasn't lived up to expectations on the court. I would still be surprised if he is fired after this year. Too many other things going on.
+1. Respect Tower's continual optimism, but the mediocrity of MUBB should be at the top of our AD's list of problems to fix... otherwise, he shouldn't be our AD.
I've seen hundreds of "in the huddle", halftime and pregame segments across lots of sports at all levels in my life. 90+% of them are not talking tactics/strategy.
I was thinking about how nice it would have been to see some Markus hero ball rather than the standing around.
Can we put this point to bed already?Did anyone else watch "all or nothing tottenham"? If you did, you'd think Jose is an absolute moron who only spouts cliches and vaguely helpful coach-speak.But he's not a moron. He just doesn't say any tactical things when the camera is rolling.Wojo seems to be inept as a tactics coach. But it isn't based on what he says in front of the camera.
MU moved the ball great against the Pine Bluff zone. Stood still against OK St. The difference was the length of the defenders. Give credit to the D.
I don’t think this means what you think. You are essentially saying MU is not capable of competing with top 30 talent. That isn’t even a great place to be historically. Wojo ceiling = not good.
The ball movement against Pine Bluff was praised. And then Wojo said he was pleased because they had only worked on their zone offense a little prior to that game. Yes or no? MU got completely disrupted by the OK St zone. Why the difference? Length. Dawson not getting the ball at the foul line and not making plays when he did. But, a few days earlier, the ball movement against the zone was fine.
