Smart to Marquette Done?

[RyanConroy]

"Marquette" is now trending nationally on Twitter.

This has got to be an 80% chance at this point, right?

We'll never forget you, Brent?

How about:  "We'll never forget you, Brett?"  (Opposite of Favre)

Congrats guys.  I hope this is true.  The Big East needed some good news after a horrible week.  Smart for Buzz?  Any day of the week.

Or is it Brett?

Damnit

[chapman]

so is it premature to look at VCU incoming recruits?

Rivals #39 overall
http://rivals.yahoo.com/basketballrecruiting/basketball/recruiting/player-Terry-Larrier-142700;_ylt=AvcppvA5e0D8rJLulPkOkW7SO5B4

Plus three 3-stars.  Scout ranks Larrier as the #15 SF, and lists them with the #24 and #29 PFs.    

We'll see how VCU treats their releases.  Their call, really.  I wouldn't release a Hill to go to VTech given Brent used our money to take chartered flights to Georgia every other week to see him, and should not get the benefit of that.  Can't fault VCU either way.

Is someone proficient at Photoshop to make this happen?

Ehhhhh.... you're just happy we didn't hire McDermott.

Shows to an extent how big of name Shaka Smart is....such a cool name to start with...but....this would be a HUGE hire for Marquette...

Just got off the phone with "friend" in Milwaukee at MU. Done.

Leak later today. Presser Wednesday, which is interesting that Marquette has blocked off Wednesday for 2-3 days now.

Please be true

According to our sources, Shaka Smart to Marquette is all but complete. We have our sources in the same way that @ESPN often has sources.

They're based in Richmond, VA.

If this is all true I honestly hope that VCU is able to keep their recruiting class in tact somehow.  There are plenty of players out there, we don't need theirs.

Larrier I believe had Marquette among his finalists.

In fairness, the last tweet this group had was directed to Comcast complaining about not being able to watch HBO. Also only have barely over 100 followers.

[SWARM!]

Confirmed.


WOW.

[texaswarrior74]

VCU fans have stopped being nice....taking shots at MU and the program....saying without a President and AD he'd never leave to go there....say his relationship with their President Lao is of utter importance to him.

Only took to about page 3 for the other fans to show up

[jakeec]

Yea, this is a very good get for Marquette.  Pretty surprised.  He should do very well.

But when Favre left, the T-shirt was "We'll never forget you, Brent"....
