Kolek planning to go pro
I’m pretty much a nobody on this board, but I’ve been around for a long time and my former roommate is an active and strongly contributing alum, has connections to the team, and also Brookfield Central High School. (Tower knows who I’m referring to; my freshman year roommate.)So, take this however you wish: “Hearing from good sources that David Joplin will be transferring to MU once Texas releases him.”
McCormick 7th floor. 84-85.
That’s us!
Which one of you two were in 712 and would incessantly tap something on the floor?
I disagree with this analysis. You are a great contributor.
Side question, but does anyone know why Joplin had several high major offers (UT, GTown, Butler, Minnesota, Mizzou), but neither Wojo nor Gard offered. Was he a late-bloomer, or perceived as a bad fit for the MU and UW@Madison systems?
Hoping your sources are right! FWIW I've heard very encouraging things about Joplin's interest in Marquette going back even before Smart was hired. Feels like a good chance the previous staff not offering will be a serendipitous mistake in our favor.
Your gut feeling on Gates?
Gut feeling, 60/40 he ends up here. The 40 would likely be Mizzou.
