Quote from: onepost on December 30, 2025, 10:39:08 PMElonsmusk is somewhere fuming that he can't point to a win as some evidence of "progress". Poor guy.

I was impressed with a couple stretches where they got lost in the fight

Quote from: DoctorV on December 30, 2025, 10:31:47 PMJust heard one of the wildest sports related things I've heard in some time.

New Mexico, who beat Marquette in the tournament, lost EVERY SINGLE PLAYER AND COACH from last years team. Pitinos son left for Xavier.
Every single player.
They are 10-2!

Marquette lost 0 players and coaches.
They are 5-9.
Unbelievable. Remarkable. Devastating.

Wow.  That is worth noting.

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on December 30, 2025, 10:03:27 PMPoor man's Dan Fitzgerald, who was a poor man's Steve Novak.

Reminds me of one of my favorite Josh Ritter songs, "Kathleen," including the lyrics near the beginning...
"They try and they try but everything that they do
Is the ghost of a trace of a pale imitation of you
I'll be the one to drive you back home Kathleen"

And, yes, tonight's performance was a collective failure. Though I am a passionate and relentless MU fan, I choose to step away from the craziness and desolation of our current situation. I hope for better next year, like I did as a student from 84-88. Yikes.

Quote from: GoldenWarrior11 on December 30, 2025, 10:29:13 PMT-rank projects us to finish 9-22 after tonight (not including BET).  I have no clue where to find four conference wins from.  Projected to be favorites at home against Xavier and DePaul.  That's it.  And that may change shortly.

Marquette history aside, this will be an unprecedented trajectory of failure (four straight NCAAT seasons into a 20+ loss season).  I cannot find a similar case study like this.

In college hoops history??

This team is so bad it's not even fun to come troll Scoop anymore.   Anyone of you who want to keep Shaka as coach are insane.
