Quote from: illiniwarriors on January 20, 2026, 11:21:07 AMWe will be competing with at least 100 other programs for these same players so buckle up and hope someone is willing to open up their wallet.
I can't see James staying unless we bring in some talent for him to play with.

I just don't understand this attitude - it's clearly not rooted in reality. 

While the RGV model has fairly earned the criticism it's received this season, I'd wager that the type of kids and families that are recruited via this model are less likely to cut bait and run because of tough times.

Some of these kids may want to see it through and achieve success together. 

That's not to say Shaka doesn't need to add talent this offseason through the portal - he clearly does.  And James will need to be compensated fairly, as well.

Stop being so soft.  This program and school has a lot to offer.  Marquette has yet to lose a highly regarded player to the portal and I don't expect that to begin this spring.

Quote from: Jockey on January 20, 2026, 12:25:06 PMNo. R's will follow trump off the cliff. NONE will stand up and be a profile in courage.
I think that can change at mid terms. Once he becomes a lame duck I got to think some Rs will want to protect their own career? But ya never know

Quote from: tower912 on January 20, 2026, 07:24:30 AMI was pondering before Gold shot the second free throw whether he should miss it on purpose.
Announcers said prior to shot that it might be better to miss it and take time off the clock.

Quote from: mileskishnish72 on January 20, 2026, 12:15:33 PMThanks for the link. It sounds like he loves MU but loves Shaka more. If Shaka leaves..?

Seems like James is married to Shaka is what I gathered from that presser. So yeah, if Shaka goes, James does as well.

But if Shaka stays - and I assume he will, we won't have to worry about Slick Rick poaching James.

Does anybody know the scoop on Jones?  It looked to me like Stevens was handling the ball more than usual.  Are rthey groomming him to play point when James is out instead of Norman?

He ain't going anywhere, folks.

Quote from: Pakuni on January 20, 2026, 10:32:41 AMMaybe he'll figure it out this time around, or maybe like Vic Fangio and Wade Phillips, he was born to be a DC. Either way, kind of a risky hire for a team at an inflection point and very dependent on the growth of a young QB.


Also, if the young QB grows and has a great year, your OC is probably getting a HC job in the next cycle. Weird pairing.

If Shaka returns, so will James.

There really is no reason to believe otherwise, but folks are free to all the evidence-free doom-and-gloom speculation that floats their boats!
