I'll stick with my opinion on Gold. He'll be in foul trouble within the first eight minutes.
https://www.three-man-weave.com/3mw/marquette-preview-2020They usually do a more in depth analysis than most, and it's no different this year. Like some here, thought we were overrated prior to Hausergate, and are now underrated. Pointed out that both Sacar and Bailey came on strong down the stretch. Think JJ will play a big role, and threw out the twin towers idea that most won't be convinced of until one of them shows an ability to hit a shot from more than 5 feet out. Overall good analysis.
Solid article. My question about it is how they think we're overrated but rate us at 32. I think that's right around where most places seem to think we'll be...a back end top 25 team or just outside of the top 25.
I know I'm captain of the SS Optimism normally, but I still have a pretty bullish view on the team this year. This team will look very different stylistically this year, it'll be an 80's Big East kind of throwback team. They will be about hardnose defense and a lot of slashing with some kicking when necessary (namely Corner Sacar, Howard from anywhere in the half court, and Koby). I think this will be the toughest team under Wojo, it'll just be a matter of whether or not a slashing team can still succeed in modern college basketball of spread and shoot.
Also I'm looking for Bailey to being a big part of our 3pt offence.
MU will be a better overall team this year. 1. More Athletic Lineup2. Better team chemistryI expect Markus to have a monster year. Everyone else will be delighted to get more playing time . All that said, our record may not be as good because the Big East as a whole is going to be much stronger. MU should be able to get 3rd in the league and make it to the second weekend of the tournament.
And your wet fantasy of Wojo being poached will be closer and Stan will be the man!!
Bailey needs to decide if he's going to be Jimmy Butler or Jamil Wilson. I think his ceiling is Butler-esque but he's gotta show some toughness.
Wish it were as easy as that. So far he hasn't "decided" to be close to Jamil or in the same universe as JFB.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
