I thought I'd start a thread for times when we want to vote on a poll, chip in donations to a cause, or other times Scoopers can use the internet to help out a Marquette-related cause.
First up will be a daunting one...a Twitter poll for NCAA Team of the Decade between Duke and Marquette. Frankly, this isn't a great Duke roster and in terms of professional success to date, Jimmy Butler and Jae Crowder are by far #1/2 in this tussle since Zion hasn't played a minute yet. Get to voting!

And for a bonus...how about helping UNC dispatch Bucky?

I've found my calling
Both very close. I voted the right way, but that Bucky team is better than that NC team (ducks).

That Wisconsin squad would be ridiculously tall but nobody beyond BK could handle the ball (references Dekker's epic fall on an open drive)

That Wisconsin team would be terrible playing together. Happ, Leuer, and Kaminsky could not coexist. Koenig is also not nearly the player Jordan Taylor was.
They would be better with Taylor/Brust/Dekker/Hayes/Kaminsky. Balanced, lots of shooters, enough quickness to play defense.

Ahh, yes - the epic face dribble! An instant classic.

Vote on instagram and twitter ASAP. WERE LOSING!
The season may be over, but we can still vote for the underdog Marquette managers! Why vote for them? The alternative is Indiana, it's Indiana.

Sponsorship by Sloan Valve makes perfect sense.
Can someone explain manager games to me? Do they play matchups at a certain point or is this strictly a Twitter poll?

I believe they play the managers of Marquette's opponent should they have a manager team.
If I remember correctly the Marquette managers were undefeated this year.

It's essentially a tie with 39 minutes to go.
Winner of this gets to go to Arizona.

I watched the MU managers play a few games leading up to the final four games in Minneapolis several years back
