That is what they look at, but it's a stupid view of elite talent. Don't think about what they were coming in, think about what they would be going out. If any of our starters transferred, they would likely be top-10 on every "hot transfer" list. If Jop, Chase, or Sean transferred, high-majors would be chasing all of them.

When you see the unicorn article about Oso, when Dauster says Kolek is the best point guard in the Big East, when Kam scores the way that he does, those players who came in unsung become elite. It would be like saying Zach Edey isn't an elite player because of his high school rating. It's just silly, myopic, and wrong.

Honestly it sounds like a vocab issue. We need a word to describe players who arrive as high level players to differentiate them from players who develop into high level players after they arrive on campus. For better or worse,  the word we use is talent. There are probably better word

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Easy to see why the MU fanbase is the butt of every major basketball podcast’s jokes. Skin as thin as I’ve ever seen.

Indeed.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Marquette isn't talked about by any major podcasts.
VIOLENCE!
