You'd like that wouldn't you?

Lenny, you're on a message board for Marquette basketball. It doesn't get much more "jock sniffer" than that.

Some are fans. Some are fanboys. There’s a difference.

I was happy that Sultan noted his Walker #84 jersey because I found that to be a more interesting fact than the thread he started on a interesting fact. I have to say, your post sure sounds like a guy that never had an HR department to report to for keefe to tattle to:)

It's odd to me that Goose is getting a hard time for professing his admiration of Sam for his time at MU. Sam was a very cerebral player. Rarely made a bone-headed play or took a wild shot. Great help defense despite his physical limitations. He played the game the right way. He was never an alpha type and a great complement to Markus. It's too bad Joey chose MU. I don't fault Sam for sticking with family. The pressure on him to transfer along with Joey must have been tremendous.

It’s odd to you that someone finds it weird that a fan likes a guy who transferred out?

And how did he stick with family?  Was he not allowed to play here if Joey left?

Pressure from family to leave backing little bro

Pressure from family to leave backing little bro

That's quite the dysfunctional family. "Son, you are having a great career, but since little bro is fragile, you need to pack up and leave" It's not like Wojo punched Joey.

Supposedly locker room incident with Markus when Markus called him out, at least that was the rumor.

[tower912]

Yes, there were rumors of locker room fisticuffs post Murray State.

It is not odd that the usual suspects take the time to challenge my liking of Sam as an MU player. Now, if I had said Theo or Cain were one of my all-time post Al players, that would have created a mess. It is OK to like some players that transfer out, but not all. I can already hear their argument on those transfers being different, but a transfer is a transfer.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

People really need to get over players that transfer from Marquette*, particularly with the new transfer rules. It is going to happen--a lot. It isn't some personal insult to the university or to you, the fans. The animosity towards them is childish. Even if you weren't enamored of their play on the court, wish them well and move on; or, if you were enamored with their play on the court, wish them well and move on.


* unless, dog forbid, one would transfer to the Bagders

Yeah, I heard that Markus called Joey out, after Markus previously went to Sam to have Sam talk to Joey about some inadequacies in effort. Sam gave Markus the  greenlight to talk to Joey. Joey didn't like the conversation, to say the least.

He probably told Joey to quit falling down.  Even the great Tom Izzo couldn’t fix it

Talk to Pico. He seems to have a big time grudge against White guys from Wisconsin in particular the Hausers. A pox on any body that transfers because according to Pico they are traitors. One wonders why we should entertain any transfers to MU with Pico attitude. Oh yeah....because that is different.

[MU82]

He shoulda! Al punched guys in the face, and the Warriors became national champs!

Agreed. I have absolutely no problem with guys transferring; as you said, that's the landscape, and I actually have been in favor of looser transfer rules.

I do have a problem with those who ruin a promising season before leaving town, and whose selfishness and/or immaturity played a role in the program suffering long-term damage.

All the more reason to show Wojo-Dukiet did not handle Hausergate properly. He had all his chips on Markus.

For the record, I liked both Sam and Theo. Both gave it their all during their time at MU. I agree that we need to get used to seeing exponentially more transfers going forward. Just like I never begrudged a valued employee who left for perceived greener pastures, I take the same perspective for MU players.

But there's always exceptions to every rule, so as to Joey...

As he should have.  The Hausers are born losers and program destroyers.

Still got him chit canned, aina?

I agree. There have been guys leave that I was disappointed in their decision but hoped all of them did well in their life. I was not a Theo guy, by any stretch, and I was very happy how this season turned out for him. That was a hell of an experience for him.

[withoutbias]

Sam had a way with words unlike any other (besides baby bro) had at MU.
