Think an AAC or A10 team where he can make an impact would be really good for him.  Join up with a historically decent program like Memphis or Temple, maybe even join Carter at La Salle, be what gets them a level higher than they would have been otherwise.

Eligible, yes, but I also thought I remembered he'd sit out the entire year so he would have two full years of eligibility.

Duane will probably end up somewhere we hadn't thought of before.  The problem with starting landing spot threads right when someone announces the intent to transfer is that until the announcement, potential landing spot schools haven't had the time to evaluate how that player may fit their needs and start recruiting him.  And until interested schools start talking to Duane, we won't know who those schools are.  their are exceptions when the player is highly sought after like a 6'11" top 100 center who legitimately wants to be closer to home like Luke was.

I don't think noon ball needs another guard. They're in more need of a stretch 4.

Post by: GGGG on March 22, 2017, 10:41:56 AM
After thinking about this for a bit, I can actually see a Power 6 program taking a chance on Duane as a grad transfer.  His stats are quite comperable, and in a couple of ways quite better, than Korie Lucious when he went from MSU to ISU.  It's not a huge risk since you are only tying up a scholarship for a year and he is considered a very good teammate.  Plus Ike obviously has a network and will maximize its use for the sake of his son.

So I don't think it is far-fetched to see a B10 or B12 program take a shot with him.

Time heals a lot of wounds. Duane has always been vociferous about his love for Milwaukee and Marquette. The universal support of the fanbase despite him leaving, as well as his family and local connections, I could see this being a good destination for him.

I can see a Power 6 school taking a shot on Duane, but I wonder about that from his perspective, though.  He's got one year left to play, and I expect he'll want to go someplace where he is very confident that he will get significant playing time at the PG position.  That is not as likely at a Power 6 school.

I will neither confirm nor deny.....because I don't know. Haven't heard anything but could ask around. TAMU definitely needs some more guards. We have a glut of bigs and only one quality guard....but that one guard was arguably our best player and a PG. I don't see Duane being played at the point over Gilder. I think he would fall into that two guard role. But he would have definitely been the starting 2 guard if he was here this season.

Firehouse Subs are as terrible as their stupid commericals. And the whole "it's a Firehouse, things are bigger because we're firemen" shtick awful.

Not to mention their spokesman couldn't have that beard if he were a real fireman. Can't wear a SCBA mask over that hipster Grizzly Adams face fluff.

What chain would you prefer?

Any over Firehouse.

If I'm looking for a sandwich Potbelly, Panera, Which Wich, Jersey Mike's, Schlotsky's.

I used to really like Quizno's back in the day. They had one sandwich that was fantastic, but they removed it. Never went back, true story.

Seriously, when I interviewed for my job here, they included a note in my on campus interview offer to not wear burnt orange to the interview. I'm sure it was a joke.....but I still didn't wear it.

Which wich way too damn expensive.  Can't get outta there under $11.  Crazy for a 11 inch sub.  But it is good, but not Potbelly good.

You're speaking truth, finally. The Wreck is incredible. Everything on it.

Which Wich I never get. Portillo's is comin tho.

Jersey Mike's just left.. they are solid. Employees are tools... by design.. "want it Mike's way?".. so h0mo.. but, good.

JJ's is horrible. Only good thing are the pickles (nh) and drive-thru

Come on homie. Their meatball is at least edible, and like $7.50 for like 6 inches of sub.

The one way to make Subway half way decent is to get the meatball pepperoni, provolone cheese, toasted, oregano, and parm cheese.

Jersey Mike's chicken parm is solid.

Potbelly's is solid. Haven't had it in a long time. They have some mac n cheese as a side right? If so, that is some bomb mac n cheese.

 Suburpia was the best Back in my HS days in the late 60's (it started in like 67),  We used to drive from Milw SoSide to the first  Suburpia on North and Prospect.  But Once they folded it was Cousins.  They started up again in like 2005 or so.. Same owner as when they started in the 60's.. The problem is, the owner owes a TON of $$$$ in back taxes to both Feds and State. ( I think he served some Jail time)  He  Got into a battle with the partner and lost the  "new" shops  in like 2014.. One remains, on BLuemound..  But nowhere near the ORIGINAL, even tho they advertise they are the same. I think the one running it is the "partner" who worked with the Original Suburbias and knows some of the "secrets", but still they aren't worth it..  BUT....  There is a Sub shop called Gold Coast Subs on like 59 & Burnham in West Allis.  The owner worked for the Original Suburpia and knew some of those "secrets" as well and the sandwiches are pretty dang close to the original..IMHO...

I worked at Suburpia in the late 70's while in high school and have tried the new Suburpia a few times. I'd say they aren't much different now although they did expand the variety. The new Suburpia's problem IMO is that the bar has been raised since 1980 and they are below that bar.

The original owner, Foley, got kicked out of the new chain and he won't turn over the recipe for the spices he used. Foley is a strange man. He also used to own a place called the Tyrolean Town House on Hwy. 100 where he would throw the Christmas party for Suburpia, I think we had Bad Boy playing it in 1980. He bought a 1/4 pound of weed, had the store managers roll it up in joints and passed them out all during the Christmas party. Who does that? Strange.

Quote
But while Foley ran the shop and had the original spice formulations, he couldn't take a formal stake in the business for fear that would give the Wisconsin Department of Revenue leverage to come after him for unpaid taxes dating to his ownership of Suburpia decades earlier.

Some think he will get serious consideration at a Power 6 needing help at the 1.

Calling JC Hampton a point guard is generous. He's a 2 guard. If anything, he would be a cautionary tale for Duane. Was a combo guard at his last institution. Transferred to TAMU with the intent to get more exposure and play PG. Came off the bench for a bad high major team and played the 2 almost exclusively.

I don't know when you were a kid, Substop was around for about 40 years.  Bright pink building off Broadway near where West End and Broadway meet. So that puts it right in the start range that you mention.

Didn't hang around that area too much as a kid. And I didn't eat many sub sandwiches.

Marquette grad transfer Duane Wilson tells me that he's considering Texas A&M, Arkansas, Nevada, Georgia Tech, Georgia, and Virginia.

Jon Rothstein sent out a tweet this morning (don't know how to embed them) that Duane was considering Texas A&M, Arkansas, Nevada, Georgia Tech, Georgia and Virginia.

So it would seem he is considering all high major with the one exception being Nevada, but some may consider that high-major.  Heavy on SEC and ACC schools and noting remotely close to his son.

This is a real nice group of schools for Duane.  He is clearly valued by quality coaches. I think if he is healthy he could have a break out season.

I am one was never in love with Duane.  Duane came out the same time as Koenig, he was an explosive player in high school.  Shot the 3 with a good percentage,
over 50% percent.  Lost his explosion, saw it once last year with that dunk that was common in high school.  Wants to play point, one year point guard that has
not played point much.  A learning experience.  Dwight Buycks tried that, not easy.  Good luck to him but at best an average player that did not take the next step
in college.  Hope he can, but playing the small forward for MU, was being played out of position by Wojo.  Rather see Anim or Cain for at least rebounding purposes
and getting taller as the pigmy guards need some height upfront.

I don't think Marquette would be able to block him even if they wanted to since he's a grad transfer.

I think they under 14.5.2.2.10 (as referenced by 14.6.1), MU could object, but a hearing could then be requested by Swaggy Du.

Nonetheless, I'd find that extremely unlikely. I think he's free to go anywhere he'd like, ex-BEast schools.

Uh, hello ... Wojo wouldn't let Duane explode!

My sources say that one day in practice, Duane did a 360 tomahawk dunk. He looked over at Wojo, and the coach just shook his head disapprovingly.

Yet another documented case of Wojo de-motivating the players. No wonder we went 3-29 this season.
