Lockett to Marquette?

[KC_Warrior]

According to this guy on Twitter, who claims to have sources:

@dhookstead: Trent Lockett is headed to Marquette University. This is official and final. Huge get for Marquette.

edit: added question mark

[DomJamesToTheBasket]

The question is........what will Enlund blog about next (via a cloaked figure)?

It'll go something like this:

"According to MUScoop, a Marquette message board, Lockett is heading to Marquette."

[strotty]

Would love to tweet it out, because I think it eventually happens, but this kid has the look of no credibility. I do think it gets done soon, however.

[THEultimateWARRIOR]

Im pretty sure its a done deal from the sources i have. A few kinks still need to figured out but all signs point to him making an announcement in the next few days. Sources very close to Lockett and Marquette have confirmed.

[Blackhat]

Big time get!

[reinko]

Where can I get sources?  Seems like everyone and their father has a "source" these days.

My sources tell me, 9 times out of 10 using the term source on anonymous message is pretty fuckin' lame.

If it's good enough for ESPN writers to substantiate their lies, it's good enough for MUScoop.

Sounds like a good deal for MU, what does the starting lineup look like for next year then?

I'll be your source.

Hey, reinko, I just got word that Lockett to Marquette is a done deal. If anyone asks, you didn't hear it from me.

[MattyWarrior]

My brothers best mans friend,whose mom is a nurse at MU, said its a done deal. All the records have been received,according
to my source!

[wheresthecake?]

My guess is something like this:

Locks:
Otule
Cadougan
J. Wilson

then 2 out of these 3:
Lockett
Blue
Mayo

Super subs:
Gardner
TJ Taylor
Steve Taylor
D. Wilson

That's a solid 10 man rotation with Anderson, Jones, Ferguson, and Thomas potentially making some noise as well.

[brewcity77]

Looking at that lineup, this team might be harder to defend than last year's team was. Granted, we don't have the two go-to guys with DJO and Crowder leaving, but I could see Jamil, Lockett, Mayo, Blue, Gardner, or TJ all being able to go off for 15+ on any given night. If Otule and Cadougan can make even marginal (5-8 ppg) contributions, that's a lot of scoring options to try to stop, and would make double-teams very difficult.

I know expectations are down, but with this addition, especially with potential off the bench snipers like Thomas and (maybe) Brzoja, this team could be very hard to stop.

I have 9 sources who all say that is bs.

That's looks about right 2 me.

I mostly agree with you. Except I don't see how people can continue to not have Vander be a starter. He started almost every game this year while playing 26 min a game. Unless everyone else gets that much better I don't see how he is forced out of the starting lineup.

Locks:
Junior
Jamil
Vander
Otule

One of Mayo or Lockett, and that is a good looking starting five.

Bench wise I think we are very deep, with Davante and the other of the Mayo/Lockett combo being first and second off the bench. After that I think minutes are up for grabs. D. Wilson will get his minutes because he is a true PG. TJ Taylor sounds great, but I have never seen him and don't know enough to comment. I think Juan and Steve Taylor will fight for minutes, and could see both being productive. I also think everyone is forgetting about Melo. He could steal minutes from three different spots. All around a deep team.

I saw those things come out of a woman's uterus on Game of Thrones this past Sunday.

I would be amazed if Lockett comes here and doesn't start.  I would be also amazed if Blue doesn't start having started almost every game (if not every game) last year.  I think Mayo comes off the bench, but could end up getting more minutes than Blue in a number of games next year.

Lockett over Cadougan? Just saying..

Agree. I think Lockett, Blue and Mayo will be 3 guys rotating through 2 spots and all getting their share of minutes. TJ will get minutes, but it will depend upon if he outplays wilson for back-up PG, or Jones for back-up switchable.

Plus, Sultan, if Lockett comes, then I think you are right about Jake. He won't see the floor for more than 5min as Lockett addresses the biggest weakness of shooting (which is why I thought Jake might play).

I like next year's roster a lot (with Lockett).

The only potential weakness is finding out who can be the "crunch time" guy and get his own shot. Mayo seems to be pretty good getting his own. Vander can beat guys off the dribble, but struggles to finish. I'm sure it will be a work in progress.

Keeping my fingers crossed that the everybody returns.

I really like that line up. Reminds me a bit of Louisville this year, with just a lot of solid players, lots of length, great Defense, but no real go-to stars (I know Siva got hot in march, but before then he wasn't that great).

And btw, no way Blue doesn't start. He is one of Buzz's "guys" and, not to mention, has proven himself as the most valuable all-around player coming back next year (ball handling, scoring, defense, etc...). Mayo/Lockett take the last starting spot/come off the bench.
