Quote from: Jockey on December 21, 2025, 01:42:10 PMExcept I was serious.  :)
So was I. Bears and Packer fans don't want a pat on the back from each other. I just was giving an acknowledgement to the swipe at Da Bears.

I hope, with all my heart, GB loses the rest of the season.  :D

"Won't work with agents" on the whole. It's been noted by a number of national writers that Shaka's unwillingness to work with agents (Morillo most recently) is more damaging than his unwillingness to use the portal.

Quote from: HutchwasClutch on December 21, 2025, 09:30:49 AMI didn't intend to be nitpicking your post.  The way it was worded gives the impression to those not around then his tenure at MU was longer than 3 years. 


Thanks....sorry for the over-reaction, I am too proud of living through the dark ages of MU BB!

Quote from: WhiteTrash on December 21, 2025, 07:41:12 AMAgreed.  I don't have any inside info, but I'm really getting a vibe that there is something much bigger going on that is causing this

I can't believe that 1. Shaka has lost his ability to coach, 2. These players don't have even mid-major level of skill and/or 3. That the coaches and players dislike and distrust each so much that they can't work together.

Purely a guess,  but I think Shaka is leaving by his choice.

Are you speculating we'll see him during the tournament in different gear a la Buzz.  And that the team has known this?  I haven't really gotten that vibe.  I just know we're really bad.

Quote from: Heisenberg on December 21, 2025, 11:32:02 AMPacker fans have to come to grips with the fact that this is as good as it gets. They sneak into the playoffs as a 7- or 8-seed and lose in the first round. And every year the team gets worse.

Lynn Dickey 2.0 era is upon us. Too bad Bart Starr cannot coach them to 7 - 10 every year.

This team is without a doubt better than the last two years.

Quote from: onepost on December 21, 2025, 11:45:21 AMIt's uncalled for to call what Shaka is doing "ignorance"? Am I wrong? To not work with agents, to not take transfers, and to double and triple down on players who have only shown they aren't good enough for this level - I'd call that ignorant.

We're having a historically bad season, and you're upset posters are meeting that with heightened frustration? It's a message board.

Egbuonu signed with an agent well before committing to Marquette. This is just false.

10'wins?  Laughable... not going to get there

Quote from: Heisenberg on December 21, 2025, 11:27:12 AMExactly, this looks to be a 10-23 team this year. Is there any urgency to win games? To accomplish what? Get to .500 so we can pay to play in the CBE?

Or is this a rebuilding year and play everyone to see who gets asked to stay and who needs to go to make room for portal transfers?

As one who has followed the program as a student, grad and ardent fan and supporter since the late 50s, I find this to be a tough season to absorb especially since there are still 19 games remaining including the BET. The Dukiet years have been the hardest to take. While there is disappointment this year there is reason for some optimism that was not there for Dukiet based on the active frosh, the redshirt frosh and incoming recruits as well as potential'26 recruits as well as hopeful development. But still believe there should be some careful use of the portal and rethinking how revenue sharing and external NIL possibilities are used in the recruiting process as well as among current guys on the roster.
