Last post by Shooter McGavin - Today at 07:34:54 AMQuote from: MU82 on Today at 12:32:35 AMI just think he's a streak shooter, as he has been his entire time at Marquette. He's had long stretches when he hit 40%+, and other stretches when he can't buy one.
Yeah, I get it. But he just looks so hesitant on wide open shots some games. Almost like he is thinking "do I have to shoot?". Maybe it's a body language thing. MU needs second half of Valparaiso game Ben consistently to have any success this year. He's a senior. Time to get the job done.

Shaka first needs to teach him to box out. His technique of shoving someone with two hands in the chest at the three point line doesn't work well and will draw a whistle. 😂

Last post by Shooter McGavin - Today at 07:09:16 AMQuote from: Jay Bee on December 04, 2025, 05:57:05 PM***GENERALLY SPEAKING, NOT NECESSARILY WITH THE CURRENT STATE OF OUR ROSTER/PROGRAM***, I'm just fine with a Tre Norman staying four years in a 15 scholarship scenario. Guy who can play bully ball and some defense, has been through it a bit, helps others, good teammate.. spot minutes here and there, insurance in case of hella injuries.. great.
And in the current state, I'm all good with him being here too.. wouldn't have him playing many minutes, but we have 15 freaking spots.
What I would do is have some guys ready to play who have a profile of being guys who need/want/can medium-high usage and it's natural and effective. We are very low on that. Lots of complementary dudes who just aren't that type of guy. Those types of players are JUST FINE and actually NEEDED. But, this team build lacks potential higher usage guys and that's tough on us.
Technical way of saying few or no alphas? Hard to believe there was no recognition that this was coming. Or it was and was deemed acceptable for one year by Shaka and staff.

My 80 YO mother-in-law has more passion for basketball than Williams, and I'm not sure she could name more than 1 NBA team.

Last post by Hards Alumni - Today at 06:06:11 AMDO wants to score, so when he sees the ball in his hands he goes for it no matter the cost. Trouble is, he is very careless with the ball and frequently turns it over. In addition, he seems lost (as does most of the team) on defensive rotations. Hard to keep a guy in who turns the ball over and is a bit of a liability on defense. He has incredible potential, but I'd love to see him play for more than two possessions without turning it over. Owens seemed much more in control last year. Frankly, a lot of that was probably the senior leadership, of which we don't really have any. I love Chase but he strikes me as a quiet leader when this team needs a vocal one.

Giannis for Pat Williams anyone? He's young with great upside.
Trade him to Marquette?
