Quote from: hawk on Today at 02:42:35 PMPretty easy to feel the hate in here.  Hamilton did have 7 rebounds in 15 minutes plus 3 points.  He certainly is not a starter or a srtar  but he can fill 15 minutes.  I am sure that nobody in august body except for myself has ever struggled to learn or succeed.  How bountiful your gratitude is.  Cut the kiod some slack, who are any of you to question his motivation or intent?  Answer:  Let he among you without sin cast the first stone. 

Those 7 rebs are a bit misleading.  2 were on his own misses.  A couple fell into his lap.

Hopefully not so bad such that they'd be unable to figure out there/their/they're usage.

Quote from: JWags85 on Today at 02:15:56 PMI mentioned before that I turned down very goods seats for the Bears-Cowboys TNF game back in 2019. Probably would have been the best seats I ever had for a football game but single digits in Soldier Field on the lake? Hell no.  My coworker sent me a picture of his beer that was slushy.  Never felt more validated in a decision.

NFL/CFB is easily my least favorite in person viewing experience of any major sport and really only is appealing with decent weather.  If not warm, the kind of nice fall day with a light jacket, not a parka and hand warmers

Watching football live is a blah experience. The vibes can be elite, but that's it.

Quote from: panda on Today at 01:44:00 PMExactly my point - anyone compared to Hamilton looks competent and filled with potential

Look, there is absolutely no reason known that I can even conjure, including Ben's injury, that explains CH starting the 2H.  None.  End of discussion.  And I'm not trying to rip on the kid at all, he's just not ready at this level.  And may never get there.  This is 100% on Shaka and I don't want to see it again.

Quote from: Heisenberg on Today at 01:38:02 PMLast year, Seton Hall was 7 - 25, Holloway stayed as the head coach, and brought in 11 new portal players.

This year, they are 14-3 (BE: 4-2) and ranked #25 this week.

Wow! Thank You Awesome information! And yes Seton Hall will drop after losing to Butler at home today but what a dramatic turn around!
For Marquette feel 3 Portal players minimum will help turn us around next year or you might see something similar to this again next year. 

...not just portal players but players that can shoot beyond and inside the arc, make layups/dunks after an offensive rebound, play defense and of course spend the money to get them so they don't have to take a bribe from a bookie to earn some extra dough.

Quote from: PointWarrior on Today at 02:22:28 PMShaka's forced exit from Texas and now this season - that may be a hit to his credibility...

I'll agree that some current players and recruits may decide not to be at MU next year based upon this season, but it not a total reputation or program killer. MU as a program and Shaka as a coach have enough to overcome this.

Quote from: BM1090 on Today at 01:36:05 PMWith Chase I think the issue is as simple as he's a great role player. He can play off good players and be a really valuable member of a team in that role as a spot up shooter, slasher, defender, and transition player.

He doesn't have many sklls on ball in the halfcourt and there's obviously not enough talent around him for him to play the role he could thrive in.

I agree with you that he's much better off the ball, and as a 3rd option guy, but he's still one of our best scorers.  He's also had abysmal defensive stretches.   And not having the right skills in the h-c, as a 4 year guy, with his speed and athleticism, is a total failure.  That's on him and the coaching staff. 

Quote from: GB Warrior on Today at 02:31:02 PMShaka is coaching the women's team today

I'll bet Hamilton will be in disguise on the court with a wig on his noggin and a foam-filled bra.

Shaka's credibility is just fine. One of two college basketball coaches on the list.
