Gottlieb just said...

In addition to his Warrior dislike, I can't be the only one to think he is the most arrogant prick among all the analysts out there.  His smugness and attitude if another analyst doesn't agree with Sir Gottlieb's analysis has no rival.

This is an old article, but it just shows that he hates all of the big east.  Not just MU.  Gottleib is a tool.  Always has been, always will be.  Some people just like to make statements to get a reaction.  That is the only reason Gottlieb is on TV, because he gets a reaction.

How do you figure you will have the tallest guy on the floor??? Our starting center Matthew Bryan Ammaning goes 6-9, I know you have a 6-10 & a 7 footer but they don't play do they?  Other than center we match up pretty close, I'm sure we will try to pound the ball into the paint in the 1/2 court and get out fast in transition by crashing the boards, we rebound very aggressively. However if you guys hit the 3 as well as I've heard we will have problems with you. I think it's  a great match up and Gottlieb's a tool.

The truth of the matter is that this is a game where the two teams matchup almost identically to one another.  This means that any outcome is realistically possible.  Experts are always looking for some kind of upset, and lets be honest with ourselves, from an outsiders perspective this is definitly an attractive game to pick for an upset.  However, those of us that have watched Marquette play the entire year feel great about this game, since for the first time all year we will have a size advantage, something that no one thought was possible.  We will actually have the tallest person on the court, which sounds quite odd.  If we shoot cold, we could lose to anyone, but you have to feel good playing a team that is our size, that, quite frankly, just isn't as good as us.  In 1965, Doug Gottlieb picked Cuba as his upset special over America in the Bay of Pigs Tournament.

Husky fans, I have a question that may dictate outcome.  Can MBA guard the perimeter?   Can he guard a quick 3 playing out of position who can shoot the 3?    Can he guard a 3 who can get to the rack from the 3 pt line with either hand?   If the answer is yes, your odds just improved mightily.   If it is no.........

That's two things we can agree on.  See, Doug Gottlieb is bringing fans together.

That is good...44% as a free throw shooter, never more than 50%as a starting point guard.  I found it at the 1:06 mark.

Well, not many true centers do all those things well, so this definitely presents a matchup problem for us. If you're talking of Hayward I don't think we will have MBA guarding him, he will probably see Holiday and Gant but that still leaves us with MBA on a smaller quicker, strong shooting Eagle. Definitely a problem on the defensive end but a bonus for us on the offensive end and on the boards IMO. MBA can move pretty well but I don't see him staying with Hayward, this is why our coach gets the big bucks, we''ll see what he comes up with.

Does ANYONE really like the pizza at Angelo's?

Now if he trashed Real Chili on the other hand...

Now that's funny.  What Angelo's did have going for it was its ability to deliver anywhere on campus.  They delivered to the Varsity projection booth for me more than once.

Darnell is our big that defends the perimeter. We've used him to guard PG's and C's. He's 6'8 and long and started almost all the games as a freshman, but has been coming off the bench as a Sophomore.

Darnell is the type of guy that sometimes gives us trouble. 

Does he hate Doug Gottleib?

Well, I think we have a lineup where everyone can shoot the three and drive very well. 
          3 pt %
Acker  48%
Cubillan 39% 
DJO  47%
Butler 50%
Hayward  35%

You right though, dude gets paid to figure out the match up problems
