Good grief, you would think this is a board about the Minnesota Vikings or something. The reality is the following:

1) We are six games into the year and two of the games have been against very good, experienced basketball teams.

2) Our team is mostly "freshmen." Vander, Gardiner, Reggie Smith are all freshmen. JUnior and Otule are de facto freshmen. Crowder might as well be a freshman coming from junior college and for all the minutes he played prior to this year, Erik Williams also is a freshman. That leave Buycks, this year's version of Bernard Toone (Lots of talent, just can't find it yet), Jimmy Butler and the injured/inconsistent Joe Fulce. The lesson: they are and will make freshmen mistakes.

3) To stay in the game with Duke given Item 2 aint all bad. I've said before Warriors don't settle for second and we should not. But c'mon, this is a talented and inexperienced ball club.

4) I think we have read too many of our team's press clippings. We have a ways to go yet gang.

5) These are not pro athletes. As much as we're all irrationally in love with Marquette basketball, these are 18 to 22 year old kids who love the game and are playing for love and hopefully an education. Let's treat them that way.

Amen brother.  This team will be playing its best basketball in February.  You can't judge a young team by how it plays in November.  I hope none of you are managers responsible for developing young talent.

Most of these guys are young and deserve the benefit of the doubt due to inexperience.
DJO - missing shots, in a funk, most are half way down and then out.  Thinking too much.  Will be OK.
Then there's Buycks - he's a senior and just flat out plays with his head up his a**.  Selfish, street ball player, low bball IQ, boneheaded decisions, horrible in the half court, not a PG, bottom level SG (in comparison with other BE teams).  I hope Buzz will cut his minutes and reel in his play.

Agreed, more or less. Doesn't make it less frustrating, though.  Inexperience or no, these players have been facing zones since middle school. Shouldn't be that inept against a zone.
