And we thought this was going to be a long boring off season

Wow, interesting times for Marquette Basketball.  I say think long term and get the right coach.

yeah - and we were all worried about being one scholarship over the limit!  The good ole days.  Now we will have about 4 or 5 to hand out.

I love it! This is fun!

Think of how refreshing it's going to be to not have to hear about Crean popping up in the Brewers clubhouse or waxing Tony LaRussa's back.

Guys...we just got rid of a complete ass. It's a good thing.

Yeah, it's a blast...it's a regular rave party.   What happens if we hire another guy you don't like personally PRN?   

And your comments on the recruiting class were ridiculous.  It's a top 20 recruiting class and you're coming here telling us it's not that good.  Sigh

If it was real enthusiasm, I'd be with you. But yours is fake. You're simply acting like this to counteract everyone else's reactions. You still want to be in the spotlight on this board.

Marquette is at a very tenuous point: make the right hire and we could shakily live through next season and stay afloat; make the wrong hire and we become DePaul. Can't wait for all your positive apologist posting when that happens.

I agree - we didnt have much to talk about as Crean FINALLY got the 600 lb gorilla off his back and won an NCAA tournament game without Dwade.  This makes it much more interesting.  I also have to compliment Todd Rosiak for stepping up the reporting on the program.  He aint no lori Nickels!

Rosiak really has been good these past 40 hours or so. (It's only been about 42, I guess. Feels like forever.)

His article today was particularly good, I thought: http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=735104

You're right. I am extremely sorry to see Crean go. The fact that rooting for a team coached by him made my skin crawl makes no difference.

And I'm sorry we might lose recruits I have never seen play and I believe, if those teenagers say so, that Buzz Williams should be our coach.

I haven't felt this good since Bill Clinton's term expired. And I think that's an extremely apt comparison.

No kidding.  I was ready to take a break from Scoop for baseball season!
