Serious question .. why would any player (beyond juniors) stay at MU?   There's just a world of better opportunities out there right now, for a transfer or new recruit.

Obviously, if you're from Wisconsin and want to play close to home, ok, that makes sense.   Otherwise .. really?  

MU, via crushing losses of the Big East, ESPN, and now Buzz leaving is half the program it was 12 months ago.    Brutal.

hahaha, really? Man up, bro.  There is a multitude of reasons why.
I would take the Rick SLU program right now.

That's awesome!  Can't wait to see Duane playing.  This may keep Johnson around now...we have the new big three in place at the 1 2 and 3.  I think Fischer is staying too.  Not really worried about the squad.  Derrick won't be starting and playing so many minutes now that Buzz is gone.  How fast things change.

The players need to be the biggest recruiters right now. Have a great, young local nucleus of talent that will keep us afloat for the next 3-4 years.

That's what Buzz told him to tweet.

Well the silver lining of this day is that I got retweeted by Duane.

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.

Nick Noskowiak says that he is still verbally committed to Marquette.

I'd feel better if he said, "I'm still committed to Marquette", without the "verbal" modifier.

Considering he does not know who the new coach will be, I'd say he handled it pretty well.

Well he can't sign an LOI yet so the commitment = verbal. Probably just being detailed. Doesn't mean he is 100% confirmed here though...like any early signee.

Mizzou, if they can take him. Ahmed doesn't deserve VT, he's so much better than that.

Glad to hear Duane, Burton, and Noskowiak are still in the fold....for now. I'm not worried about the Chicago/Wisconsin kids. Steve, Harris, Cohen, Fischer, and Flory should still be golden. Pierce, I don't think he is getting better offers than us, especially with him sitting chunks of his senior season. The juniors may leave if they feel that they will be replaced on the depth chart.

Biggest questions marks: JJJ, Hill, Shayok, and Dawson

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

So, just thinking about coaching hires and recruit relations.  I'm on-board the Howland train, but, in further thinking, does hiring Howland make sense to not see MU drop a bit in the short term? Say the choice is Howland or Archie Miller - would we be better off taking Miller d/t his current recruits and recruiting further out already being established? As we're seeing with a couple 2014 MU commits, they're opting out in hopes to follow Buzz (one would assume). So, would bringing in a current coach allow for us to keep some guys coming in next season that are already tied to that coach?
