Agreed. O-Max is gonna be a real wild card for us. I think he'll be a nice surprise.

Anyone with an Athletic subscription gets a couple of shareable passes, glad to send one your way BUT would caution you that they get you to sign-up to use the pass and will charge you membership fee if you forget to cancel before the free pass expires (my old man learned the hard way #TechIsHard)
The membership is worth the $5/month IMHO, I pay for JSOnline digital too....this is the only way I can get MU news outside of Scoop
-
I'm pretty sure Scoop doesn't allow massive cuts and pastes to get around paywalls.

Mods please dont hesitate to delete if that breaks some sort of rule

Positive boiler plate. And what we all kind of already knew in our hearts. Lots of energy, lots of upside, lots of distance to go.

SHUT UP NERD

Damn there's some cheap people here. Some people complain about the lack of Marquette content on TheAthletic, but we can't get people to pay $1-5 a month (depending on current promos) for quality reporting. Same goes for the JS. Without subscribers, how long do we expect to keep professional level reporting? (no offense to our top notch bloggers who bring a different value-set to the table)
-
I feel like I was clearly not actually hoping someone would send me their password.
Jesus some of you are nut jobs assuming asking for 1 article is an indictment on how I spend all my money.
-
Totally agree it's your prerogative on how you want to spend your money
But from someone that has a subscription, there are 5-10 articles a month where I think to myself that even one of them would make it worth the price of admission and I would highly recommend it to anyone on the fence
-
I needed an article like that. It's been really hard for me to keep track of who all the new guys are and how they might contribute. Even though it's a very preliminary summary, it helps my brain sort the new guys out a bit better.
-
Mods--maybe delete? Paywalls exist for a reason--so they can pay people that make the content everyone here seems to be so thirsty about the contents of taht they begged to use other people's logins
People could have gotten the article for $1 right now if they just signed up. Be better.

Agreed. The quality of Marquette coverege with JS and also the content of the Athletic both make it worth it.

Huh... here I was assuming if you need a new pair of underwear that you turn to a random internet forum and ask members for theirs second hand. My bad! ;)

Removed. In general, a small interesting snippet (<= 3 sentences), or your own summaries are fine. Full cut-n-paste and we can get cease and desist letters.

Luckily I read it before it was taken down.
Consider it my 1 article free trial

What!? They have investors!? But I thought they were privately held by a writers union!?!?
Everyone has backing. Writers need clicks though to justify their jobs--and inflow of subscriptions to pay their salaries. That's a dumb argument.
Moreover, everyone here bitches how we don't get enough coverage. Finally a national publication shows they're gonna focus more on Marquette-specific content and instead of supporting it everyone's like "well, if I have to pay for it I don't want it!" and then the coverage disappears because no one supports it. Then everyone here bitches how we don't get enough coverage.
So yeah, I stand by my statement-- Yall are kinda sad.

Nads hung it up as the free loaders wouldn't pay him by the word any more and so he went into the dividend investing game.

I love how defensive people of for the Athletic, when there is a pirated game stream thread, what, every game?
-
The Athletic article didn't say much. It was more of an opinion piece, with Shaka saying everyone has to get in better shape and get more experience.
Frankly we get just as good information from many of the posters on this site.
All that said, I am very excited about the team we have coming in for this year. I think it has a potential to be a cohesive unit.

The "opinions" were largely Shaka's.
I haven't seen any of the posters on this site interview Shaka at length, one-on-one, and publish his comments.
Nice try, though.

Most of the words were the authors conjecture intermixed with a few comments from Shaka many of which we have already heard. The player evaluations were nothing more or less than 10-15 regular posters on this site provide.
It wasn’t a bad article by any means it just didn’t tell us anything we haven’t already heard
The value is the author put it in all one article

Hamilton interviewed the coach and quoted Shaka about 20 times, not just about each player but about the overall team. Perhaps any Scooper could have done it ... but none did. It's like saying that any of us could run a marathon in under 3 hours, which I guess also technically is true.
But hey, they can't all be the "excellent research reports" that you cut and paste.

Doesn't sound like Garcia is necessarily coming back to MU if he doesn't go NBA: "Garcia’s willingness to bet on Smart and Co. probably determines whether he’s in Milwaukee or toiling elsewhere."

From his social media posts, he consistently is working out in MU gear. I think he’s back in Milwaukee if he doesn’t go pro. But I gave up trying to figure out what 20 year olds were thinking years ago.

Are those game streams embedded into Scoop somehow? Otherwise it's not the same thing at all.

My exception is that he is not back at MU. I hope I'm wrong. But his quote about going pro or back to "college" tells me something. I do realize that quote was from a while ago, and he may or may not have built a relationship with Shaka or another coach such as at MN by now. But that quote, when I first read it, made me think he is gone.
-
What I gathered from that article is that if I'm going to have a good next season I'm going to have to get into the best shape of my life.
"He'll have to get into the best shape of his life," is my fav Shaka aphorism so far.
-

Agree. Let's hope it is MU but if he joins Theo maybe we can start calling Duke "Marquette South". The only season we ever looked like Duke North during Wojo's reign was this past season when both teams missed the tourney.
-

I think "toiling elsewhere" implies going pro still, but not in the NBA.

Ehh, it could mean either. Its definitely possible that Dawson is playing college ball somewhere other than Marquette next fall. I can think of 352 other programs that would find a spot for him.
While the article didn't tell us much, it did reinforce what I've been thinking and saying since DJ bolted. This team isn't going to be any good next season, with or without Dawson and/or Morsell.

Ah OK. I thought you meant people who were suggesting they shouldn't cut and paste the article here. Galway can spend his money on whatever he wants.

Given that I'm in the wedding planning process it's more what my fiancé wants
I kid... my parents and her parents are also spending my money on what they want for that too.

I know we're all pumped about the program now that Wojo is gone and Shaka is here. We have 2 returning players and 9 newcomers for sure. Over the 7 seasons that Wojo was here one of my main criticisms was his inability to coach players up and make the team perform better than its individual parts. I look forward to see if Shaka is better than Wojo and will give him 3 seasons to get the program rolling and quite frankly no one knows how this team will perform next season. What we do know is that the program could not continue the way it was going.

I think Garcia is gone. But I would think if we got Morsell, we'd have a better shot at bringing Garcia back. He wouldn't be a threat to Garcia as far as taking shots away, but would help the team in all other areas.

No disagreement from me what so ever. I am excited about the future. Just was hoping with the immediate eligibility rules that we’d be able to see a tourney level team year 1. I don’t think we’re anywhere near that at the moment.

Assuming all Scoopers will be invited, maybe its time for a scoop poll on necessary wedding reception addons.
I haven't figured out yet quite how I'll do it, but if I get invited, I promise to bring the Al statute with me.

Imagine the fight to see who gets to bring Chick, MomOfMU and Jutaw...rest of losers have to go stag. Does Glow have a "Patrick Baldwin Sr. like" built-in advantage?

Al had a law? Was it the one about the best thing about freshmen is that they become sophomores? Because that one doesn't apply anymore.

Yeah, many become transfers or draft wannabees nowadays.

If they don't want a higher education or to play at the college level, don't waste time recruiting them. Let them play in Bulgaria.
