This has flipped since I looked a couple weeks ago, but according to BPR, he'd be Marquette's second best player after Chase, and far ahead of Nigel for the whole season

How is there (sic) grammar?

"Swipes with Shaka" tomorrow... where it appears students can get a 'free lunch' of some kind. The odd thing to me though.. is it's running only from 11:30-noon. Seems like a TIGHT time frame. Hope there are cookies with RGV frosted lettering on 'em.

Quote from: muwarrior69 on February 15, 2026, 07:03:40 PMIf there are no cuts in the roster and only one transfer they'll have every right to complain, but if there are cuts and several transfers are added they should wait to see what happens on the court next season. No one will be more upset than a donor shelling out big bucks for a transfer that is a bust as that will be on the coaching staff.

Discussing disgusting murderers is not political.

Quote from: panda on February 15, 2026, 06:26:15 PMThe right additions and subtractions can turn this around quickly. Really need to get this offseason right on both sides of the coin.

Yes.  Good point.  This is a vital offseason for our program.

Thank goodness for video evidence, or the Gestapo agents would get away with all of their crimes.

All great points!  I am sure there is pressure on him from the NLI donors. I know the key players talked to the president.

Quote from: Captain Quette on February 15, 2026, 06:41:24 PMFrom friends of the program, fwiw:

1. Shaka very protective of his image, it is a priority for him
2. Going into this season, he believed his culture and development would generate success
3. Is well liked by players and player's families and uses this w re recruiting
4. Is feeling the pressure of this poor season and understands he may be out if next season is also an abject failure
5. Realizes he might not be get another P5 job if he is fired by Marquette

This is supposed to be his forever home. Analysts have said it for years now that he and Marquette are the perfect pairing. Hopefully this decision is a rejuvenation for him and he is here for a long time because of the success he has and sees as sustainable for the future.
