Starting PG
« on: January 22, 2015, 09:10:34 PM »
This poll is intended to get a pulse on what a majority of scoopers feel is the best option for the rest of the year. Do we start developing Duane and see if he's the man for the job going forward? Or do you feel Derrick has earned the right to finish his career as the starting PG for our great university?

I am in favor of giving Duane the reigns. Personally, I feel it's a lost season when we don't make the tournament. I don't think this years team is going to make it, barring an unforeseen run in the BEast tourney. I would like to build for the future and see what we have. I would sacrifice a win or two this year in order to find out, as I really could care less what our record is if we aren't going dancing.

Just want to see what the numbers say Sultan. It's hard to get an idea on what the majority wants through a couple people going back and forth.

The future is now.

Duane.

I respect Derrick's seniority but we're still playing 4 on 5 with him out there.

Winning is contagious. I don't care if we were 0-fer on the season, you play to win every game. There is no lottery for the best recruits in college basketball. Winning never hurts anything.

That is a scene from the music video of Rise Against's "Make It Stop." One of the most inspiring music videos I have seen in the modern era. Fantastic song and powerful message

As for the topic. I wouldn't mind Duane getting a few minutes at point a game. If it works, give him a few more. If it works consistantly over several games, then give him the keys. If it doesn't work, Derrick keeps the keys but keep giving Duane some short stints. I wouldn't surprise if Wojo was already trying Duane at the point in practice.

Thanks for sharing the source of the pic.  The music video's title make Sultan's ingenious use of that pic more apparent.
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.

Didn't even make the connection. I don't know if Sultan was going for that, but if he was, bravo! That was some meta-level sh*t

Yes I am intentionally trying to threadjack since.....this power should be used for good not evil.


Glad you posted this, Rise Against has some great music....don't always agree with their message but they have to be the smartest "mainstream" band in recognizing that they can deliver good music that is trying to say something intelligent. 

And I can't get enough metas#$t, lets keep going down the rabbit hole

So if Duane wins the poll you are going to send result to Wojo.....
