News and notes on the Marquette hoops program:

• Jeff Goodman from Fox continues his bullish tone for the Warriors noting that "The senior guards at Marquette have really bought in to their new coach, Buzz Williams."
• Todd Rosiak spoke with Brett Roseboro's high school coach and filed a lengthy blog that contains just about everything you need to know about MU's latest commit.
• According to the Big East Basketball Report, Marquette is the leader for Shane Southwell, a 6'5" guard from New York City.  Southwell, a 2010 prospect, who visited MU for Marquette Madness last weekend, is hoping to field an offer from Memphis -- so don't hold your breath on this one just yet.  More on Southwell here.
• Adam Zagoria reports that former SHU commit Jamel Jackson, currently enrolled at Technical Career Institutes in Manhattan, is considering Marquette.  Jackson is a 6'3" guard.
  
• Tony Bishop at the Bleacher Report projects a 7th place finish in the BIG EAST for MU based on coaching turnover.
• CuteSports gets you updated on a handful of items as well --most of which you should already know.
• For all of you Milwaukee locals, don't forget that on Friday night the men’s basketball team will host the Blue & Gold Fund Fish Fry/Haunted Hoops at the Alumni Memorial Union and Al McGuire Center. For details, visit GoMarquette.com.
• By the way, tickets for the DePaul game at Marquette's second home arena in Rosemont, Illinois, go on sale this week.  Let's gobble them up, MU fans.

Jamel Jackson seems like an absolute liability academically...not to mention doesn't seem too impressive on the basketball court.

I would think the academics at Technical Careers Institute might raise a red flag at the MU admissions office.
