In one of Ben Steele's pre George Mason tweets, he wrote that Owen was participating in the pre game shoot around. From this, it sounds like Owens is getting close to playing.

Can we get past the "comedians" and the amputation "jokes" to get some real insight into when Owens might return?
This team badly needs a jolt to its depth and based on how he looked in the open practice, I had some hope that Owens could be a significant contributor.
The more time he misses in the OOC season, the less likely it becomes that he will be able to contribute in the conference season.

Theres comedians and jokes because there is no news.
See Shaka's presser. That is the closest to actual insight you are likely to get.

What did he say?
Can anyone comment on how he looked in pregame warmups? I heard that he was in the layup line before the GM game. Did he participate in pregame warmups last night too?
Quote from: wisblue on November 12, 2024, 05:01:21 PMWhat did he say?
He's close. A few more hurdles to clear that can hopefully be cleared in the next couple days. But nothing certain.

He was dunking the ball in layup line and did the final dunk before the team went into locker room pregame from the big east logo like Chase can do. I assume he is very close.

Yes, I know that it is possible to look up the press conference and listen through the whole thing to hear if there was anything said about Owens.
I was hoping that someone could report on that, which someone has done.
I did go and listen through the 9 minute press conference and heard what Coach had to say, which came in the final 10 seconds before being abruptly cut off.
Between that and the report about him dunking in pregame does give me hope that Owens can be playing soon.

Ben Steele is on Twitter and you can subscribe to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and get alerts for updates on Marquette. Though, Shaka and this staff don't often tip their hands and most people find out just before game time about player availability.
Or you can come to scoop and have people guess about player availability.
Owens might play tonight or he might not.

Rico and news dreams spammming "Marquette sucks/will lose" 10 plus times literally every game to "mock the trolls" is amusing to many scoopers for some reason. Even though they themselves have become the trolls. I honestly don't get the appeal of such a schtick. you don't really see this garbage on other boards but here it's celebrated so yeah...it's just so excessive but oh well ... Marquette sucks by the way.. I'm just mocking the trolls so it's great
Trolling the trolls upsets the trolls?

The board is hard to get engaged in these days. I will never put someone on ignore but find myself spending a lot less time on scoop. Only downside, I am less engaged with the team/program going to the season and need to find an outlet to get my excitement level up.
Goose, I feel the same way. But probably about different posters.

I was pleasantly surprised by what Owens showed tonight. Looks like he really could've had more run, and I suspect he'll get it in the coming games.

Sad thing is Rico used to be funny.
I don't think anyone here really thinks the latest iteration of Rico and his pet boy Newsie is anything but tedious but they'll cheer them on as long as they're trolling "the enemy". If I'm wrong, well I guess some people thought the 1910 Fruit Gum Company made great music, too. So...

3.5 out of 10
Shaka said in his postgame presser that Damarius might have the most upside of anyone on the team.
I fully expect he and Royce to pressure Joplin and Benny into playing better, because those 2 will be on the floor if they continue to struggle.
Damarius is a freshman getting over multiple injuries and getting g his first playing time on the road against a high major. He showed enough to give hope and he looked ragged. Both can be true. Enjoy the journey.
Royce and Damarius, if several things break right and in Marquette's favor, will likely both be 3 year starters at MU, and that is VERY hard to do in this current Shaka era.
Need several things for that to become a possibility, health and NBA amongst them.
We've only seen 4 minutes of live ball action for Owens, but I'm comfortable saying that the two of them will likely be starters next season if their trajectory continues and they fully buy in, which seems like it's already happening

Banning the polarizing content (politics) will lower engagement across the site. But maybe that's for the better.
