Ben was not the problem.  36 minutes, 19/7.  He made his lay ups.

And we found what will put Caedin on the bench.  An early shot clock 3 attempt.  He only played 5 minutes.

Being the worst current program in high major basketball is an emotional experience. It's worse than I thought. We have nobody on this team capable of making a winning play against Seton Hall. 13-0 run at home to close is just flat out unacceptable.

Our Seniors next year are set to be Tre and Sean, both have been NET negatives to the team. We have no big man. In this very moment, I am personally ready for it to be over. Maybe tomorrow I'll think differently.

This team sucks and next year's will be worse without massive overhaul.

We are not a high major. We are a low major on our way to D2

You heard #FakeNews #Lies

Quote from: BCHoopster on December 30, 2025, 10:10:50 PMTeam played well for 36 minutes, they the truth happened, poor coaching, no leadership on the court.

I watched Adrian Stevens a lot, did not score, he is a step slow.  Not sure if the new frosh can score next year, but that has to be an area of concern. 

Not sure who this Adrian is, but "team played well for 36 minutes" is nonsense. We started off like a pile of dung; fortunately fouls helped the staff use the right lineup. for a good portion of the game. Then, more weird personnel choices near the end.

Just bizarre stuff that I cannot understand, unless SS has millions on a crazy under X wins bet.

We are nearing our worst ever Kenpom of 125

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 12:18:49 AMOh there are DEFINITELY posters who will be throwing fits when Otz isn't our coach next year and claim that he wants the Marquette job, Marquette's athletic department is just incompetent and won't take him. I won't pretend to know the financial situation of Iowa State athletics/men's basketball, but if he wants out he'll go to another B12, B1G, or SEC program.

A lot of the rest of this is just nonsense. The staff is like any other high major staff in the country. Tons of people, all reporting to the head coach.

The Tweet is a nothingburger. The ticket price increase has nothing to do with bloated spending elsewhere and everything to do with schools are now paying student athletes. Nothing more, nothing less. Everyone's ticket prices in football and basketball are going up. Nothing unique to Marquette whatsoever.

Who's throwing fits? Jesus Christ you are the most dramatic ass dude on this board. And Elonsmusk is writing his annual "Stan" letter to Derrick Wilson as we speak. Even more dramatic than me. But because you won't ever concede that me and many others have been proven right over and over this season at your expense, this is your current crutch to hold on tightly to: "Otzelberger will NOT be our coach! So HA. Go cry about it!"

There's a wishlist thread here and for shiits and giggles I put Otzelberger in there. Trilly Donovan said he'd be a gettable candidate for Marquette and that "Marquette is an awesome job, top 15-20 IMO". Gonna go ahead and put more credence into what he has to say, thanks. By the way, Iowa State's NIL and rev share IS a problem, as stated by people more knowledgable than us.

I just think it's a loser mentality that too many here have to assume Marquette will simply hire some mid major maybe. Hell, Shaka was a home run hire until he decided to dig his heels in and not get with the times.

Although Seton Hall beat the spread heard Seton Hall's Kenpom went down after the game. Marquette is bad this year.

Collective failure is right. Many things involved. Feel Marquette's Program Strength this year has decreased and Saint John's has increased which is another problem or concern.

At this point, Shaka personally putting up a mil to spend in the portal might be the only thing that could save him.
