Title: roster question
Post by: Afroman on June 05, 2014, 11:34:33 PM
What are the chances that Marquette still lands a player/contributor for the 2014-15 season? Slim? 50/50? That roster could sure use another big body.

Disagree that even a warm body/player is "Decent"- Wojo has said and I take him at his word that he is not just going to bring in someone, at least on scholarship, to sit on the bench and never contribute.  

The only hope of adding to the roster is a transfer like Gabe Levin, but they're not going to add anyone to contribute for the 2014-15 season.  It's way too late in the game now for that.  They'll need to make the best of the 11 guys they've got.

That's exactly what I was referring to. A transfer is a player but can't contribute next season.

Chances of transfer eligible in 2014-15?  <1%

Chances of another transfer who will have to sit a year?  >50%

After I posted I figured that's what you meant.

A regular transfer could contribute next year by giving the few bigs MU has a quality player to practice against.

Just answer the question...lol. He could ask anyone that. Just answer.

Slim, likely, unlikely or none. It is that simple. It is reasonable to ask that.

<Sigh> . . . to answer your sound question I think I read in the MJSentinel two days ago there were 2 spots still open I think, [if not 3?].

Or it was said that 11 rosters filled I think it is high likely that they will bring at least two more guys in who can help.

Whether through the transfer variety or walk-ons. I would hope they can see the need for size in that equation and would thus look for any kid 6'10 235lbs and above.

We shall wait and see. Percentage wise in my opinion and estimation I would say it is 80/20 AfroMan. Highly likely.

I am sure all his coaches are working and know someone and have some connections.

Whoa, whoa, whoa ... I am not Slender Man, The Thin Man, Bones, Stretch, Bony Moroni, The Lanky Yankee, Sticks, or any other Slim synonym. But, I may have smoked a "skinny boy" or 2 on 17Th!

And No, I don't think we will add any quality player to our roster for 2014 - 2015.

Because Gabe Levin is sitting next to you, and Sister Mary Margaret is next to him.
Therefore, the chances are between Slim and nun.
