Is there anything to be said for another poll? [If you dont know Father Ted it's my Xmas gift to you - watch it instead of MU games]

At this point I'm starting to get concerned that we'll have too many guys transferring out than not enough. Do Nigel and Adrien stay if they get offered cash money to play on a team with a pulse? What about sheek? What are the rules on decommitting in this day in age? Do we get stuck with a roster of guys that no one would be willing to take off our hands because we pay them too much?

Or is there such a thing? Will Shaka be forced into a complete portal rebuild? Does he walk in that case?

What just a complete unmitigated disaster clusterf*ck dumpster fire. And  ow even Chase sucks too? What is honestly happening?

Most guys will be back. Half the roster ain't transferring.. will Shaka "grow" them idk

Have any of our returning players gotten better?

Shaka being back next year is the real question.  It's going to get real ugly the next 2 months.

Idk, is Nigel staying if Repole writes him a check with 7 figures on it? If our guys with mkt value don't leave after this sh*tshow I guess it would at least be a testament to the R. I wouldn't blame them tho.

I'm ready for Shaka to bounce. Hopefully any nudging to actually change makes him leave like he left Texas.

If you don't wanna do your fuccking job, just do us all a favor and leave. At least Bennett, Williams, and Wright had the courtesy to leave in the offseason when the NIL era chased them off rather than quit during a season.

The guy turned Marquette into DePaul in a year's time, is as defiant as ever, all due to his own hubris and I'M the unreasonable one? Hahaha alright.

One horrendous season doesn't make a program "DePaul", genius.

It does when we're not even competitive to average teams and there are zero indications he's willing to change course at all.

That's the answer. And my other question is, if they leave, are they not leaving money on the table? And if they suck, why would they want to leave?

If Shaka is willing to chase off guys who have no business playing here (Sean, Caedin, Tre) or aren't invested (Zaide), while replacing them with legit talent from the portal, then great. Let's keep it going.

I have zero faith he's willing to do that. By all accounts he's gonna double down by "growing" these guys. If you think that's gonna yield a competitive team next season then pass me some of that good stuff. He's notorious for not liking to be pushed to do things not his way, and Mike Broeker is nothing more than a yes man who caters to Shaka.

No, it doesn't. But definitely double down on such an insane post.

Food for thought

Last year Seton Hall was 7-25.

They got TEN new players from the portal.

They are 11 - 1 so far this year.

Always 1 year away with the Portal

Jesus man, I'm not being literal. I know you, wades, elonsmusk have to get off on semantics so no we didn't become actual DePaul. To spell it out, for Marquette to be as bad as a DePaul team should never happen, and that's our current reality.

They all stay. I've been told here that they make too much money at MU to leave.

You're not going to know the big indications of him being willing to change. Shaka, regardless of how much he is or isn't learning, isn't going to come out and say "half these players will be gone next year". He's not going to publicly come after his players no matter how bad they are, this is true of most coaches and certainly true of the RGV guy.

FACT!

The guy who enlightened me to the fake moon landing told me the same thing.
