After losing the Big East's all-time leading scorer, Marquette will hope for a quick bounce back with heir apparent DJ Carton and a roster full of fresh faces. Is there enough here to reach Marquette fans' expectations?

Well done. Thanks Brew.
" Marquette isn't the kind of team to try forcing turnovers or imposing their defensive will on opponents,"
This is why they are so frustratingly mediocre.
I'll bump Brew's great preview and plug my annual Knowns column. Basically, we don't really know much about this team, just a lot of hypotheses.

This stat blew my mind though:
"Under Buzz Williams, only 1 freshman ever reached 45% of minutes played their debut campaign, Vander Blue in 2011. Under Wojo, 9 players in the last 6 seasons have reached that threshold."

Mayo was definitely Buzz guy.
