I liked it when we used to always play the Domers.

Bwahahahaha

Quote from: MU82 on Today at 01:38:55 PMExcept the Seahawks won the Super Bowl.

Lovie got prime Peyton Manning.
Seahawks got second-year Drake Maye.

Sometimes, matchups matter. I have little doubt that Bears team would have had their way with this iteration of the Patriots.

Quote from: UWW2MU on Today at 10:02:11 AMMan... now you guys are turning on Clark??  The redshirt freshman getting his first game minutes in D1 college basketball this season??  No chance for him to get minutes to get comfortable?

What the hell kind of expectations do you guys have?

And seriously, the talk regarding Sean Jones... dude has been riddled with injuries which sucks for him, the team, and the fans.  But to say he's not a BE player?  I mean, the kid had some serious upside potential and his injuries prevented us from seeing that potential fulfill.  BOO FRIGGEN HOO to you "fans"

The way some of you talk around here and on social media make you look like morons and a-holes who don't appreciate the nuances of the game, the strategy and advantages of Shaka's system (only focusing on the cons), and the reality of the NIL era. 

You all need to be mindful of what you wish for and take care that you're not part of the cadre of entitled fans who are going to actually help drive away our highest potential players that we all want to stick around.  You think Nigel enjoys seeing social media "fans" who talk absolute garbage about teammates he cares about?  Reality check, players and teams READ social media and message board posts. 

If you can't help but to be a jackass, then go back to your parents basements and stay off the internet until you learn how to cope with one singular blown up year.

Amen

Quote from: Markusquette on Today at 01:58:46 PMI wish we got to see a little more of Josh early on. If he can be Kur Kuath type that would be serviceable.

Cannot. Could hope one day he can convert 2FGAs at a similar rate, and can block shots, but so different.

Kur was not a guy who could excel when it comes to defensive rebounds. Josh can put up monster numbers. It's just the... other stuff... that is a concern.

Quote from: SchnitzelBoy on Today at 11:50:17 AMHere are a few potential center/PF transfer:
David Fuchs - San Francisco.
Averages about 12 ppg and 8rebs - big body at 6'9" and 245 lbs.

Amani Hansberry - Virginia Tech
Averages about 15 ppg and 8rebs - 6'8" and 240 lbs. + gives him size he can move

I think this is the profile of what we'd want in the middle. Averaging more than 2 blocks per game is also important, but I think we actually have the rim protection aspect covered next year should Sheek and Josh get some traction.

Fuchs in the middle would work

Quote from: BM1090 on Today at 12:37:28 PMYeah, it could go either way. But he plays 5 MPG when he plays and he typically makes an impact blocking and altering shots. He also had 6 rebounds and and 2 steals against UConn in 13 minutes.

And he clearly doesn't have much of an idea what he's doing out there. Once he actually learns, I could see him being a good center.

Whereas with Hamilton, I just don't see any world he turns into a serviceable player.

His length alone makes it worth cutting into Hamilton's minutes. Granted, Hamilton's minutes are few and far between for good reason now. I wish we got to see a little more of Josh early on. If he can be Kur Kuath type that would be serviceable.

Quote from: burger on Today at 07:01:20 AMYou have a point.  Take Hank down too....Certainly his head coaching was not stellar.....

Leaving Hank up there does speak to the decades he spent loyal to Marquette....

Crean got lucky on one thing....Wade came to Marquette because no other schools wanted him because of his academic's....(sorry....I am ignoring Southern Illinois)

I guess he didn't have time to get his daughter dressed up in a Marquette cheerleading outfit for the event....

There is so much material....

He had 3 NBA level players on the team and a basketball all time top 20 player and lost by 50....No kidding....Coaching does matter....

Crean is a joke of a coach....And it shows by his career since....

What....He is a fill-in analyst on Peacock????

Always surprised people leave out the triplets and breaking into the BEAST like gangsters.. I also personally very much appreciate bringing Buzz in.. But to each their own etc.

No real preference but I wouldn't mind Louisville only because that was a fun rivalry.  There were some crazy games in there.

Just avoid playing at St. Thomas. Lockdown currently in effect - possible guy with a gun. #PrayForTheTommies
