It did pass the assembly yesterday.

The last Big East guard with that kind of ability to get to the rim through/over/around almost anyone was named Iverson. 

Can Shaka stop calling To's to setup press for opposing team and setup better inbound plays?

Hate to say that I have attended way more games than I watched as I have been to 5 games and watched less than one on TV. 88 grad and possibly most apathetic as fan. Mu fan since oldest brother graduated in 75.

Attended 2nd game at Fiserv this year.

WHY CANT chase get to the basket this year?

Why did it take Shaka so long to change offense?

Why don't we focus on slashing offense when only one guy can get to hoop and we lack shooters?

Happy to see defense has improved over season.

Who was the bearded guy behind Rob McGuire and Bo?

Go MU!

Like Lowery.

Back to the subject at hand: Many of you folks are over-analyzing the Portal issue. Coach Smart either goes to the Portal or he bets on Caedin Hamilton and a group of redshirts/incoming freshmen to carry his water next year.

That path is a sure ticket to unemployment in 2027!

Marquette's needs are simple: depth at guard and a center that's a beast. Our season has fallen apart this year because (a) Zaide, Tre and Sean never became anything close to what Coach Smart had expected; and, (b) Our center(s) are better equipped to play in the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association than the Big East.

Our core is basically very good. Keep Nigel, Royce and Adrian, work with Damarius and our incoming and we have the foundation for a good team next year. But without Portal depth at guard and center, we're headed for another disaster.

Let's see what Coach Smart does. In the meantime, the sooner this season ends, the better.

We've been recruiting him.  Seems...not right.

DM me. A friend of mine has told me that his 10-year-old son has taken down international companies, so taking down scoop is something he could easily do right after soccer practice tomorrow.

The kid is not cheap, but he's good. Full disclosure: I get a commission.

That is a strategy...

(fwiw, since it's happened, just target me. It'll make it easier for the folks you're going to have to pay)
