Congrats to Jae!
Well earned by a very, very good college player. Happy to see this news.
Nice! congrats to Jae!
That's a great accomplishment for Jae.
Best player we've had since Wade. Sadly, the two were only around for two years. Can't wait to watch him play in the NBA.
Awesome news, here's hoping he measures out well for the NBA scouts.
Yeah, that's great. Congrats Jae. Too bad he's transferring to SMU...
Good job, Jae! You are a true Warrior!
Awesome!
Need a stat hound to update/post his career statistics.....to include his place in the 1000 pt/500 rebound club with regard to two-year players.
Happy to eat crow in regards to Jae as I hated on him earlier in the year.
Congrats!
Anyone else a little concerned that this broke earlier this morning, and there hasn't even been a press release from Marquette yet?

I didn't know he still had eligibility left.

Not at all. They haven't been all that quick in the past. I would assume a press release no earlier than 3P or so.
Jae Crowder = also being forced out by Larry Williams and Fr. Pilarz.

He'll look great sporting the SMU shorts. Just like Wade in IU ones.

That's fine, but not even a tweet. Facebook update. Nada. Completely quiet.

That's a little more alarming.

Facebook and Twitter has been updated. MUfan12 can now step away from the cliff he was about to jump off and get to work on writing the sequel to Conspiracy Theory.

This time I'll be looking at Pinterest and LinkedIn. Sequels are never as good.

Congrats to Jae. Hope this gets him on the Remember the Titans video ;D
Great way to finish your career at Marquette, Jae. Congradulations!
Thank you for your time at MU, Mr. All-American. You made more progress in a short amount of time than any other player I can remember. You rock and you completely deserve this honor. Congrats.
It's too bad we couldn't have had him for four years. Or even three....
He was an absolute joy to watch, especially this year. As the SOTG caption often said, "Mr. Everything"
Congratulations Jae and a big thank you for all your hard work, great play and leadership!

Hey, we all make mistakes but we are all MU fans. I once had to admit on these pages that I was clueless when I said McNeal's defense at the end of the Big East loss to Nova wasn't that bad, so we all laugh at ourselves now and then. It's part of being a fan.
He was even better the last month of the year than before, so any late supporters are welcome on the bandwagon! And he did used to get a bunch of early dumb fouls - I'll admit it now :-)
One of the best single seasons in MU history. Great achievement.

I'm sure all of the investment in new training facilities, a new stadium and a new coach make another year of eligibility a done deal.
