Good for Koby. Thanks for the 3 years. Excited to see where he ends up.
Good luck to Koby
Good luck to him, seems like a great guy. But it was definitely time to move on.
Best of luck to Koby. I always appreciate guys who play the game with max effort.
Thanks for your hard work, Koby. Good luck!
Thank you Koby for always working hard and representing Marquette with dignity. Best of luck wherever you land.
Good luck to Koby.
Felt like he never quite got his feet settled once becoming eligible to play and that's no shock given the program's dramatics over the past two seasons.
Good luck to Koby. Hope he goes to Albany and helps Coach Killings.
Good luck to Koby. Could be a nice veteran for Killings or another young program that needs a Super-Senior with great perspective and leadership.
I loved the way Koby accepted his role this season - he obviously wanted to play more, but he wasn't a jerk about the benching. Also, he really learned how to control his emotions more on the court while still staying fiery.
Best of luck to him in the future.

Hearing him scream f*ck very audibly during a game, I believe Nova, was absolutely hysterical.

More likely LMU due to Stan Johnson connection with Louis Wilson, former assistant at Utah State whenKoby was there?
Best of luck to him. He won some games for us. If he goes somewhere to be 'the guy' I think he could score a ton with his experience.
transfer portal? 5th year guy? go.make some coin
Thanks Koby, I always liked Guys that were always "All In". Good Luck.

That is a very good point. Either way Koby will be loved.
I've been a fan. I hope he finds a great situation.
Good luck, Kobs. Kinda drove me nuts, but had some great moments as well.
Thank you, Koby. Good luck.
Kinda odd, a couple rangy, bouncy guys that would seem to be a better fit for a Havoc style team than a Wojo style team are entering the portal (Koby & Jamal). Maybe Shaka just needs to convince him he's bringing Havoc back
Best of luck to him. I'm a bit surprised he's playing another year of college hoops but that's cool.
If I recall these rules, Koby WILL count against the scholarship limit, correct? That severely limits his options IMO.
Thanks Koby.
Never forget the way you carried the team back against Purdue. Incredible game.

Gonna miss what my wife dubbed "last minute Koby" who was almost always the most lethal player on the floor.
It's nice to see the turnovers walking out the door, but boy was that ball handling display in round one for Texas embarrassing. I really hope Marquette can get a grip on a problem that has plagued the program since Wojo's arrival.

Way to show some class.....in Koby's words GTFOH
Koby always tried his hardest and was a really good rep for the program off the court, he'll do well and I wish him nothing but the best.

You sure it wasn't an old replay of Bob Love?

Agreed. Fundamental basketball wasn't ever part of the "Wojo Philosophy"
Always found it hard to believe that Wojo, a PG himself, could never fill the position adequately as head coach for MU. That has to be one of the most baffling things about Wojo.

You haven't been a dick on the Cain transfer thread yet, better head over there next
It's funny I'm getting ripped by a group of people who criticized this guy quite often during games. Koby was not a high level player for Marquette. He may have tried hard, but he simply wasn't very good.

Bothered me too. Whatever, not our problem anymore.
I wasn't a Koby fan because he was a turnover machine. But I loved his attitude, his competitiveness, and his (sadly, only occasional) stellar moments.
Good luck, don't bash the guy.
Best of luck to Koby continuing his education and playing career. Take Sy with you

I attributed that to Wojo's lack of ability to refine players' games in a well-rounded manner. My hope for Koby is that he goes to a program that stresses fundamentals and helps him focus his mind on the court. His potential is still sky high in my opinion.

You know what, you're both right. Brad's posts are almost always classy. I don't think he meant it the way he said it. Sometimes you just have to be able to discuss things, especially when a major change happens. Koby didn't feel bad to make mincemeat out of Greg Gard's recent admonishment of "kids" taking an easy way out at the first sign of adversity. I loved Kobe's calling him out. He's a man, and can take Brad's poor choice of words. Kobe's effort never took a night off, so you're 1000% right. I'm hoping he kills it at his next stop.
Best of luck Koby. Thanks for always leaving it out on the floor. Oh and thanks for the win against Xavier last season, that was fun.
Good luck Koby. My advice is to have the wisdom to listen when you want to be heard.
