Noskowiak?

[ChicosBailBonds]

90% of the posters were saying "Mayo ain't likely to be here" from the day he stepped on campus.

Nope.  Not at that point in his career, quite the opposite.

I heard what I heard in April, it was from a very good source.  It ended up being true, my source was 100% accurate. 

1.February 1 - Chico announces that according to a reliable source Tiger Woods won't play in the Masters due to an injury.
2.February 15 - Tiger declares himself 100% healthy, says he will play in the Masters.
3.March 1 - Tiger breaks leg in an automobile accident, cancels plans to play in the Masters.
4.March 2 - the end of time. Chico says he and his source have been proven correct. Everybody has a good laugh.

I sometimes post vague tidbits about things I have become aware of. I don't post more because my sources read scoop and have asked me specifically not to post what I've heard on scoop. If I post more, I will no longer get information passed my way. It's that simple. This probably pisses some people off but sharing information about mubb is what this site is for. Would share more if I could but I can't.

Same is true for other I imagine.

Soooo, who do you know?

I'll save you the time:

1. People are throwing vague assertions about NN at the wall and letting others jump to conclusions.
2. MU fans are for reasons unknowable to me hate-reading Badger boards' threads ripping on MU.
3. Everyone is lining up for their place in the self-gratification circle.

I hope you weren't referring to Pakuni or me with that third one.  That would be inappropriate because, unlike some of the posers on this board,  we've heard some things from some people we know.

[Dr. Blackheart]

Nothing he could have done about it then.  You're just filling holes to fill holes, what's the point.  The quality players you want to get aren't there.  Short term solutions don't work.

I heard what I heard in April, it was from a very good source.  It ended up being true, my source was 100% accurate.  Maybe he got lucky, maybe things happened in the interim.  I believe Keefe heard the same things if I recall.  At the end of the day, my source said he won't be back and low and behold, he didn't come back.  I did see he got suspended recently for taking a punch at someone in the NBDL....lsigh.  Hope it works out for him.

I'm sure Lenny had something interesting to say as well, but since he is on ignore....well....cool...I don't give a shat what he has to say anyway, because it's usually wrong, and not having to read it saves me the headache.   

I don't doubt that you heard the rumblings but there was plenty of time after the April 1 hire to grab some talent...another Carlino for example. Why wait to mid-summer?  Buzz got Jimmy, DJO, Gardner late.

I think Wojo was willing to make a statement about giving everyone a fresh start. It backfired and he has major holes in the roster because of it. The good news, he can restart the roster with his guys now...but it put the program another year behind. Wojo will need the full five years.

Lenny, looks like you are the guy that sets off his borderline personality.

Yup, missed that one, but then again also said a few weeks before he announced that it had changed.  You seem to skip that part.

Ahh, so when you make a prediction as a stone cold lock, the stone cold lock can get warm and come undone and it's all good I guess.  Cool.

Diamond Stone is a stone cold lock to come to Marquette, according to my best source who knows all.

Hold on a minute, my source is telling me Stone may be rethinking his options.

Gee, this is fun.  If Stone comes to Marquette, I am a freaking genius for being the only person in the world saying that.  If he doesn't, I qualified it by saying he may be rethinking his options, so I certainly wasn't wrong!



You are really something else chicos, I'll give you that.

Well, personally I don't find Carlino that much of a talent in the sense of a must need considering the tradeoffs. I didn't when we got him and I still don't know.  He's had a couple of crazy good games, no doubt.  At the end of the day, he is a gunner who can score...at times.  He serves a need...at times.   Ultimately, he is a classic short term solution that I'm not sure does much of anything except in sporadic instances.  No real harm in taking him I guess, but he's like a rental, but in a different way than say Trent Lockett.  Carlino is not a bad player, but he is what he is and it's hard to change a player's stripes from years past.  So far, that seems to be born out in the results.   

On Mayo, have you thought about this consideration.....that maybe my source knew a lot more about the background situation at the time then a guy that was in North Carolina for much of the last 20+ years and was still trying to find where the bathrooms were at the Al, and his parking space...came in with maybe that fresh start mantra as some coaches do, but not everything had entirely bubbled up just yet.  Then as more of the information download happened....well, you get the idea.  Just a thought. 

I agree with you, the good news is that Wojo can put his own guys out there, and quite frankly I'd rather have it that way.  Short term solutions are often short cuts, and short cuts are often not strategic in nature and lead to concessions that are later regretted.  IMO.

Maybe you'd like to give me kisses sweet?

Pass, not that you're not cute.  It's the misses I'm worried about.

That's fine....nothing is a stone cold lock in reality....except death.  For me it's death and taxes, but for many it's just death.

All good.  I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again many times over.

Maybe you think that love will tie you down
And you ain't got the time to hang around
Maybe you think that love will make us fools
And so it makes you wise to break the rules

Can somehow tell me how many more posts we need in this thread before Godwin's Law comes into play?

Nick is back with his team, at least. He was on the bench in street clothes at his last game.

Scoop's Law: Over a long enough timeline, every thread will devolve into people hating Chicos and him trolling them.

Not even hating. Just annoyed he can't leave politics at the door.

He and willie have to bring it up as often as possible.  Unsurprisingly, they also share both the same political view, and are probably the two the most people have on ignore.

Thought this topic was about Noskowiak?  What is his status?  Why has he missed playing in recent games???

Because of the thing.
Aren't you even paying attention?
