In a perfect world!! If Shaka sends both out the door I'd be thrilled, but I would think he keeps one sadly.

Scoop is such a strange place.

Back on topic. Congrats to Nigel, such an exciting player to watch, and absolutely dominant in BE play.

Quote from: panda on March 11, 2026, 09:57:53 PMCool story - they're tight. They won't split up.

I remember when Badger fans thought they were getting the Hauser brothers because they wouldn't split up.

Quote from: onepost on March 11, 2026, 09:57:45 PMParsing through postgame pressers:
- Stevens and Parham both said they're back next season, ready to lead
- Shaka mentioned his excitement for Owens and Phillips specifically
- Shaka explicitly stated he thought more about roster construction mid-season than ever before and how badly we need depth next season...that didn't strike me as him having any faith in our current "depth" - IOW, see ya Tre, Sean, Caedin/Josh

Quote from: #UnleashThePortal on March 11, 2026, 08:40:24 PMMate, they are two percentage points away from each other.

Stevens went 1-10 today. Calm down rofl.


Adrien was at 39.6% for the season and 41.9% in Conference.

Nigel at 35.7% for the season and 38.6% in Conference.

But ok.

Quote from: Vander Blue Man Group on March 11, 2026, 09:55:58 PMHis court awareness and feel for the game have to improve and I think that will come with more experience. It stills seems the game needs to slow down for him a bit more.

He just needs to put it all together and I'd like him to get that opportunity at Marquette.

Agree 100% VBMG. There were times it felt like the game was slowing down (@Butler, @DePaul, @Nova), but he definitely faded from late-Feb on. His floor is so high because of his athleticism, and he's absolutely a guy I want in a rotation going forward. Phillips obviously the same.

Quote from: Juan Anderson's Mixtape on March 11, 2026, 09:49:50 PMThat even close personal friends may choose different paths in life.

For example, Wade and Blankson were very close.  They played on the same summer travel team in HS. They even called to commit Marquette at the same time on a conference call.

And yet, one decided to stay and one decided to transfer.

As for Royce and Damarius, if one of them chooses to leave, I don't think it's a forgone conclusion that other will also leave.

Cool story - they're tight. They won't split up.

Quote from: onepost on March 11, 2026, 09:51:27 PMOwens's defense at the end of the season was great. His length is a huge asset. If he can tighten his dribble and form into a 3-and-D wing I love having him on this team.

His court awareness and feel for the game have to improve and I think that will come with more experience. It stills seems the game needs to slow down for him a bit more.

I don't know, I wouldn't be surprised if he stayed. We'll see.
