Committed and signing are two different things. Reading.

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on <strong>Today</strong> at 03:28:30 PMWhat did the NC State team that we lost to in 2024 have?

Nothing. If you are expecting them as an 11 seed to make the Elite 8, that's great. Not happening though.

Yes, MU needs to play and coach better. Even much better.

Is anyone not saying that?

Quote from: BrewCity83 on <strong>Today</strong> at 12:49:10 PMAfter last night's game we only dropped from 27 to 32 in Pomeroy's rankings.

Michigan is at 25 and Missouri at 22, FWIW.

Pomeroy clearly didn't watch that game and integrate the eye test into his rankings.

Quote from: brewcity77 on <strong>Today</strong> at 01:11:25 PMAfter last night, Marquette is 2-8 in their last 10 November road games against high-major opponents. The 2023-24 (Illinois) and 2024-25 (Maryland) wins were the first such wins in November since a non-con win over St. John's to open the 2003-04 season when we were still in Conference USA.

The 22-23 loss to a strong Purdue team was actually an encouraging performance that gave hope that the team might be better than preseason expectations (which they proved to be). The 23-24 win at Illinois was the sign of a good team.

Clunkers after some encouraging wins either at home or a neutral site are easier to take than when they are the first game against a top 300 opponent.

After last season's 0-5 against power 5 teams, last night's clunker is more alarming with better OOC opponents coming up. 0-6 or 1-5 in those games is a real possibility if the team doesn't get its act together quickly. A performance like that isn't going to beat any top 50 teams.

With Missouri coming up I'm in "Show Me" mode.
