More than Jamil?  (Cause that was the choice.)

Jamil averaged 4 frosh, 7 soph, 9 junior and 11 senior points a game in his career.

I'll take DJ, plus Jamil was not a leader at all....

Last year I couldn't tell who was the Freshmen Him, JuJuan, Deonte, John or Duane...

One of the most recent ones bums me out the most because it would impact this year's team. I've posted this a few times, but just wait until Jameel McKay comes on the scene at Iowa State later this year. He could have really helped us this year and last. He is a great "running" big man who is an athletic freak. I was talking to a former MU big man who knows him well and his response, "he's a pro,  no doubt about it." I agree and think he definitely has a shot at the NBA, but definitely high level international. He reminds me of a taller, lankier, higher-motor Jamil.  I don't have any inside info on the topic, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Dawson transfer at some point. Apparently Wally is really making an impression with motor, attitude and team-first approach. I wasn't high on him based on my limited viewing of his game, so this is nice to hear.

POINTS!!!!

DJ's not getting the shots or minutes at MU that he's gotten at So Miss and PSU.

How do you know Jamil was not a leader? How do you know Newbill IS a leader?

GGGG

Yeah Newbill seems like a volume shooter on a team without a great deal of talent.

Their EFG% is about the same.  Jamil is better at rebounds and assists - DJ has a A/T ratio below 1 too.

Hey dont shoot the Messenger.....

"Two seasons ago Crowder, a similar player in style to Wilson, laid and built Marquette's foundation on being the heart and soul of the team — Williams' words, not mine. And if Williams truly wants to get back to where his team was built, that's the best place to start.

Wilson doesn't need to be Jae Crowder. Marquette will be successful even if Wilson isn't the conference's best player who receives All-American votes and is drafted the following June. He needs to be Marquette's heart and soul and make the players around him better. Jamil Wilson is very good. He needs to be great.
It's within his skill set, maturity and the trust Williams and his teammates have in him.

Jamil Wilson isn't Marquette's problem, but he's the one player who can fix them."


Did this happen? No.....

But Newbill would have fixed MU's problems?

So because Jamil didn't live up to expectations, he is less valuable?  You should judge the players versus one another and the options in front of them.  Not versus our expectations.

Furthermore, Newbill would have been a back up to Blue most of his career at MU.  Starting only last year.  There was not a replacement for Jamil.

This is going to end well.

Cue Ners and talking DWill in 3, 2, 1...

DJ NEWBILL When his scholarship got transferred to the shredder in Berts office.....

That kid has averaged 17.9 ppg for all 3 years in college and is still "The Goods."

We could sure use him this year as a Senior.

Pretty sure he would halve been a senior last year had he stayed at MU.

"Aye, there's the rub..."

Precisely the point with Bert. Having said which, college basketball is a business. Some enterprises choose to manage their people a la Bert. I am thankful that higher authority was resolute in their discomfort with many aspects of how Bert chose to run the daily operations. A case study in minimizing exposure by getting the problem to opt out.

Jamel McKay since we have no height this year, they could have used him right now, probably start as the center, right he did not want to play that position, that is why he left.

Keefe--how dare you imply that Buzz was stealthily shown the door. The Buzz lovers will not be happy with that analysis.

Agree.  The Creaned equivalent, Damian Saunders, would be the next one on my list.  Averaged 13.6 ppg/8.9 rpg his sophomore-senior years while playing as an undersized five for Duquesne.

I understand the concerns about whether we'd have made the Final Four in 2003 - a question to which we'll never know the answer.  Chemistry would have been different, but the overall talent level would have been higher.  And his minutes would have come primarily from Sanders, not Novak.  Steve would have been our designated 3-point bomber regardless of who started.  In any event, it's pretty safe to suspect that we would have been very successful that season.

And we almost certainly would have had a better season in 2003-04.  Instead, we had a 19-12 season that ended in the NIT.

If theres one thing we learned so far with Wojo though, its that there are no real set positions. Heck, there was a lineup the other day with Carlino, Derrick and Duane.

Someone please help me out here, where did ODB transfer to and what was the reasoning?
Bring back FFP!!!

1. UNLV
2. He wanted to be the man.

GooooMarquette

And ODB averaged 17.6 and 10.2 as a junior; and 17.5 and 8.1 as a senior.  First team all-MWC both years.

Didn't defend him.  Merely said what I thought his mindset was.

Seriously, how do you function in life with so little reading comprehension ability?

Nukem2

Not ODB.  Loved him, but he would have changed the makeup of that Final 4 team in 2003.  Not a knock on him, but things would have been different.  As an earlier postyer noted, Novak might not have been in  position to do what he did in the NCAAs.

ODB would've taken Townsend's minutes.
