Quote from: brewcity77 on December 03, 2025, 08:23:54 AMNo crazier than them beating us here in 2022. That happened because Chucky hit some of the stupidest shots ever, including the turnaround fade away three near the end of regulation. If we shoot 40+% from three, decent chance we get the win, but I'm not at all convinced we can shoot that well for a full game against anyone, much less a high-major on the road.

For reasons that I gave when you said this on another thread, it would be MUCH crazier.

Ah, agents, how short our memory or we just don't know our history.
Remember the medling parents?
The locker room letters?
The "scandals"?
The concerted drive to have a squeaky clean program?

What are our/MU selection criteria for a Scholarship?

Who will be the next academic all american?

O.K. pick, junk yard dog or high basketball I.Q.?

Quote from: Captain Quette on December 03, 2025, 10:58:11 PMHawk - carpe diem and great thoughts on what the coaching might have been thinking. But almost a totally wrong analysis by the staff nonetheless. They were way off on this roster.

As to wojo, I was unhappy with him, especially his technical coaching skills but was OK giving him 1 more year. He was a good recruiter and had some good teams and never hit rock bottom like this.

Worst mu teams I can remember:
1. This year by far
2. Buzz last year
3. 1991, KOs 2nd year

You should hav been there as a student 1987 - 1991 during the Dukiet years.

Quote from: Miss Katie's on December 03, 2025, 08:42:11 PMSaturday could certainly look like their game right now vs Northwestern. 

Why is that?

Because the BOT, board of trustees, have similar values.  It's called priorities.  Academic priorities.

I was active around here ten years ago when I witnessed decisionsto turn Marquette basketball into Princeton basketball.  Here we are, enjoy.

The BIG issue was Buzz using junior college players.  Now the issue is the transfer portal. 

Nothing changes.

All that changes is that MUSCOOP is apparently more civilized.  Not civilized, but more civilized.  I'm now 82, who cares, but what goes around comes around.

Looking at FanMatch for Saturday.. crazy to see MU / Becky sooooo far down the list. Really stinks. We're far behind glorious match ups that day like George Mason at Va Tech, Santa Clara at New Mex, OK St. vs. Grand Canyon, Boise St. at Buter, and Utah Valley at Bowling Green.

Will the game be over by the time my clinic with HURRICANE TYRA BLACK is done at 1:30pm on Saturday? Hope not.

Yes Jimginia, there is a Santa Claus and a tooth fairy.

Quote from: 1SE on December 03, 2025, 12:37:52 AMAmazed at Zaide's regression - I thought he was really going to take a step up.

I've heard he's the strongest second scorer option. smh

Quote from: GoldenEagles03 on December 03, 2025, 09:10:09 PMIowa State scored 132 points tonight.

Milan Mimcilovic had 27 points on 8-9 from 3. Jamarion Batemon had 26 points on 7-10 from 3.

Hurts even more that we let guys in our own backyard get away when they put up shooting numbers like that. Exactly what we are missing.

Respect the process.5 years to judge
 Bring back all the Wojo defense mechanisms
 Shaka has earned the right to be defended. We are growing exponentially.

Quote from: The Sultan on November 30, 2025, 06:20:23 PMThere was a time that Bradshaw was quirky and endearing. Now he just doesn't know what he's talking about.

It has become more obvious each year that he needs to retire.  Constantly forgetting names and flubbing lines.

Quote from: MuggsyB on December 01, 2025, 10:05:48 PMI just started Ozark.  It's sort of a version of Breaking Bad.  She completely steals every scene she is in.  You can tell immediately she's insanely good because she is the character. Her story is also rather remarkable. She couldn't read until she was 10 and had serious epilepsy.  Anyway, I think it's quite obvious that she's on a different level. 

You're going to love her in Weapons.

If you haven't watched it, you should.
