Sheek will have a role to play. We'll see how he can adjust. Bigs have a harder time than guards making an instant impact their freshman year. Otherwise, no I don't see any other freshman or RS freshman as players who will positively change the course of season next year.

Quote from: Biggie Clausen on Today at 06:22:54 PMI don't know how to say this without sounding like a jerk, so I'm just going to say it: I don't give a damn whether or not Tre, Sean, or Josh leave.  But I want Caedin gone.  Mainly because he has no business playing high major basketball, and perhaps even D1 basketball altogether.  But it goes beyond that.

He is not only the poster boy for RGV, he is the embodiment of everything that has gone wrong during this disastrous season.  From referring to himself as "the biggest, baddest m'fer in the Big East" in that stupid pre-season article, to the well-embedded moles, to his obvious status as the coach's pet, his presence on the team is Example 1A of the echo chamber everyone associated with the program was living in before this awful campaign began.

People say Shaka doesn't owe the fans anything, but after the worst season in program history, I think he owes us a pound of flesh.  And for me, that means getting rid of Caedin.

I don't agree with all of this, but Biggie is making a point within there: Caedin was a zero star recruit and has played like a zero star recruit. Time for it to be over. His recruitment is a huge part of the reason why this is the worst MU team in the last 30 years.

Quote from: panda on Today at 07:11:55 PM" Tolerated?  By drama kings like you?  No.  By rational MU fans, yes.  If Sean transfers out, and Shaka has Zaide and Sean's roster spots to use - and is able to afford/land two transfers or roughly the caliber of Morsell and Kur Kuath - next year's team even with Tre and Caedin on the roster (assuming no transfers out of Nigel, Stevens, Parham, Owens) will be an NCAA team."

This is musk's post which I responded to.

Zaide = 1
Sean = 2

Do you understand or should I make it simpler for you?

Quote from: MU82 on Today at 06:55:31 PMInteresting. I knew schools were talking to agents/parents of kids they hoped to get as transfers. It didn't dawn on me that a representative of a school would call his counterpart at a rival school and basically ask, "Mind if we poach one of your players?"

I had the same initial thought, 82: "wow that seems incredibly brazen and stupid of them". But it was more presented as them asking if Marquette wanted Damarius back next season because they had interest in him if we didn't. We told them yes, we want him back.

Quote from: Galway Eagle on Today at 05:51:43 PMYou willing to put your money where your mouth is that Shakas fired if we get a 7 seed or greater?

He shouldn't/wont get fired making the tournament. But he's gone if he misses it.

Counting is hard.

You should have just stopped right there.

That Seton Hall is considered "last four out" is all the proof needed to not expand the tourney field.

Quote from: panda on Today at 02:25:35 PMJust to summarize - since 1/10 (6 weeks ago) we are 3-9 with zero road wins and zero quad one wins. That is not even remotely close to a bubble team. Stop with this nonsense.

It's hard to predict next years results without knowledge of who will be here, but based off of 2 incoming transfers, we do not have remotely enough depth to compete next season. Too many freshmen and sophomores who have yet to prove themselves. Teams who barely get to 10 wins in a season don't double their win total by only adding 2 pieces. That's not drama, it's reality. 

2 hypothetical pieces? 

Counting is hard.
