Title: MU Goal To Win The Big East
Post by: Herman Cain on September 14, 2018, 12:05:43 PM
I would like to see MU set it’s goal high this year to win The Big East regular season. Villanova is very strong but I think MU is close enough to be able to make it a race. The tough preseason schedule should have the team primed and ready for conference play.

 I think Xavier has taken this approach of strong non conference with goal of winning conference ,in recent years and it has served them well. Their success has made them an attractive candidate for recruits as well.

Are you under the impression that they do not have this goal?

Yeah, DePaul and Dave Leitao need to take this under consideration as well. ;)

Is one of these numbers Gruber?

Couple of things:
Cain has a good thought here...stop dumpin on the goal idea. It brings up a good point. What are the goals of a College BBall team? Do we say BE champs, BET Champs, 1-seed, NCAA Champs....is anything less, less of a goal?

Yes, Depaul's would be different. Maybe BE Champs in the next 5 years for them.

And a coach probably has goals for individual players involving playing time and stats....stats we might not even know about.

I'd like to hear goals about graduating players.

Would be interesting to be in the coach's meeting when they discussed team goals for the year.

LAST THOUGHT: Does Gruber really like Marquette? He promotes Bucky just as much. T-shirts notwithstanding, I wonder about his allegiance.   ?-(

Nobody's dumping on the goal.  We're dumping on the suggestion that this is not already a goal.

That's silly. MUFINY is already there, checking out the body language of potential recruits (while simultaneously being at every potential recruit's game).  He can just call a stop to practice, call Wojo over, and inform him about the goal.  While running his very important company.

He's an MU law grad.  And played hoops at the University of Delaware.

At least at the BMO his seats were right behind the MU bench, 2nd or 3rd row back, right on the isle.  I'm sure he'll be sitting somewhere nice at the 414um. I think he's just a sports junkie, and building a good relationship with the two law schools in the state isn't a bad idea.

I think the goal should be to win lots of games instead of to lose lots of games.

That's why they call me Mr. Going Out On A Limb. (And not because I am currently writing this while hanging onto a tree limb to keep from been swept down my street by the waves of rain.)
