Quote from: Galway Eagle on Today at 03:21:34 PMTo win the conference I'm not sure you even need 7 better than average players. Let's say finishing top 2 is a good barometer of being in contention for the conference championship what 7 players were better than average on 2012, 2013, 2019, 2023, & 2024 teams?

2012, DJO Jae Jamil Vander Davante... Junior?

2013, Vander Jamil Davante Lockett... Junior? Todd Mayo?

2019, Markus Sam...joey? Sacar?

2023, TKO Oso Kam Omax Jop Stevie... Chase?

2024, TKO Oso Kam Jop Stevie... Chase?

Let alone just to compete you definitely don't need 6-7 better than average I mean if we did this with any team that was just competing for a bid you need like two good all conference level guys and one or two more to be reliable and nobody to truly suck.

If we want to make the tournament next year I say we have two rock solid BE starters on the roster right now. Steven's is a great piece long term but I'm not sure he's at the level we need for next season as a starter.

We need 4-5 new guys to reverse course next season.

And your faith in this staff to have 7 for 7 hit rate is crazy. I'm praying for 3 hits.

You should take more swings to get those

Quote from: 1SE on Today at 02:34:48 PMSpeaking of Zaide - has there been any news at all about where he's going or what he's doing? Can't find anything since he left - isn't that a bit weird?
The portal now doesn't open until after the NC game in April. Probably better to keep options open while teams know he is still available while he finishes his academic year at MU. There is a report on another site that he is in school to finish up.

Well, according to NCAA rules, he can't enter the portal until the day after the national championship game. My guess is that he, or his representatives, are having conversations with other schools, but we are likely to hear nothing.

My guess is that he is still a Marquette student and taking classes remotely.

The answer is somewhere in the middle. I don't think it's too far fetched to say we need 4-5 legit big east additions this off season. What last place, 20 loss team can only make minor adjustments to do a complete 180 the following season?

Quote from: The Sultan on Today at 02:20:57 PMI saw somewhere that the Rams have only used their own first round draft pick once in the last 8 years or something like that.

Yep, its a rebuild when Stafford and Adams are done.  A bunch of their players contracts expire in 2026.  They're all in this year and then full reset.

The kid has some ancestral roots in Calumet City. Probably some association with Jake and Elwood.

What I won't miss from this season.

1. Ben Gold never having his feet set or shooting line drive 3 shots that have no arc.

2. Chase thinking he is team leader and sole scorer that is taking the last second shot for the win or loss (zero for the season successfully)

3.  Shaka making excuses why we lost "that game".

4.  Having 3 empty slots on the bench with non D1 players with the ability to add to the success of team that makes it to the dance.

Quote from: Biggie Clausen on Today at 01:41:18 PMIf Phillips redshirts next year, he'll really be able to focus on his bench celebrations where he acts like we just won the national championship after one of our players hits a three to pull us within 10 against an unranked team home.  This is already a huge strength of his, but I imagine it must be distracting when he has to think about the possibility of coming into the game, so it'll be nice that he can just focus on this area.

Uh...OK.
