Poll
Question:
Will the 2015-16 team exceed the "3 Amigos" 1st year entry into the BEAST?
Option 1: Yes - the new talent is big time and ready for prime time
votes: 21
Option 2: No - the 3 Amigos have the 1st, 4th and 9th All-Time leading scorers
votes: 25
The game announcer kept saying in the past two games this is the best recruiting class in Marquette history. What do you think?
I will let you know in late March.
I voted YES, they will be ready for Prime Time. Don't think they will break the 3 "A's" records, but this is looking more like a team with many Amigos not just Three.

To be fair, the 3 amigos had a *fairly* good 4th amigo on the team their freshman year.

Sorry I did not mean to disrespect the 3-4 Amigo, but I really like this team, and I think it will be a fun ride on this train on it's day to day trips.
The key difference is that this class has positional balance. The Bronze Beast couldn't spell "Skilled Big Man" if his life depended on it.

I'm with ya. I just mean that Novak was pretty dang good himself in the "4th amigo as a senior" role.
I do not think so. Partially, because Henry will not be a four year player. James, McNeal, Matthews and Burke played four years and scored 5,000+ points, 4 NCAA bids and won 94 games.
I don't expect 3+ top ten all time scorers in this freshman class, but I think it will be a fun class to watch. Henry looks just ridiculous. If this is any indicator of how he'll play this season he will contend for BEPOY. Anim and Carter both look solid. I think this will be a very entertaining team, but am hesitant to get too bold with my predictions until after the Iowa game.
