Winn & Hanner's model had our two leading ppg guys - JjJ & Markus - at 7.9 & something-under-5.0 ppg, respectively. We knew there were issues with their model relative to MU.. but, oofta on those two, ain'a? Bet they nailed a lot of other teams.. but, tough year to project some of MU unless you had the right knowledge of Markus... any, interesting to look back sometimes...
Our offense.. I knew it could improve.. and the 3FG trends, and improvement in TO differential was expected... but 3FG% improvement.. has gone way past reasonable expectations... (http://latenighthoops.com/marquettes-dramatic-3fg-3fgafga-improvement/#.WIvbV1MrLIU) let's keep it up, aina?
"Coach Steve Wojciechowski has made significant progress since taking over in Milwaukee before the 2014–15 season, but the Golden Eagles aren't ready to compete at the top of the league yet. Senior center Luke Fischer is a proficient rebounder and interior finisher, and we project UNC Asheville import Andrew Rowsey to rank in the top 15 in scoring among transfers this season.
