So Marquette responds to a known Twitter troll, and in the process confirms that an altercation occurred, and people here legitimately think it's no big deal??

This is a master class on how to NOT manage a situation. There is no need to say anything. Just ignore it!

Now Shaka is going to be asked about it and Zaide has been tossed under the bus.

Just dumb PR all around.

Yeah, but the way things are going, wrong lake...

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down, of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee.

They don't get it

Quote from: Elonsmusk on Today at 09:39:33 PMThey didn't amplify the rumor. They shut it down. Not that hard to follow, yet some idiots can't seem to comprehend that MU said there was no altercation. What don't you get?

You're a clown. MU did Zaide a favor by shutting down any rumor about there being an altercation. Even if the origin of the rumor was some twitter burner account.

Quote from: MurphysTillClose on Today at 09:29:38 PMAmplifying a known burner account's rumor to an even larger audience on twitter is dumb.

You should stop doubling down.

Quote from: CountryRoads on Today at 09:29:05 PMThat reads really poorly. Wonder if Zaide could explore legal options on it since it could impact future NIL deals and where he ends up.

If it's true that Lowry got in an altercation with an assistant, it will be first time in his MU career he was actually aggressive.  We basically got nothing for two years and he becomes a starter this year.  Shows a few signs of promise then disappears for long stretches. 

Time to admit that he was part of one of the weakest recruiting classes we've ever had.

Quote from: BM1090 on Today at 09:34:25 PMY'all are making a lot out of absolutely nothing.

This sums it up perfectly.

Two more misses hopefully next.....More juniors....

It is interesting that MU didn't say the part of the post saying Shaka dismissed Lowery from the team is inaccurate.

Ya. I mean if nothing physical happened then I'd be pretty upset if I were Zaide reading this. And this was their 2nd attempt at it!
