10 day contract = cup of coffee.

Still made 85,000 off that 10 day that's a lot more then if he would've stayed in college.

You are assuming he wouldn't have made any money in the NBA if he had stayed in college. He might have made more.

He wouldn't have made more last year that is 100% sure. If he would've come back he would have made 0 dollars last year.

Davidson crapped the bed. Type the word choke Davidson Marquette into Google.

So perception is that Davidson choked. That's not the reality. We were lucky to still be standing but not because Davidson choked.

And he made more than 85,000 that was just for the 10 days in the NBA

And he's getting, what, 30,000 in the D league? So last year he made 115,000 before we add in Europe. That's a lot of money

I meant over the course of a career.

That's the Hillbilly's false modesty. How many times did we hear that crap out of his mouth that "we're so humbled to be here," or garbage like that.

WE ARE MARQUETTE. There's a lot of things we are, but humble isn't one of them.

Lucky generally isn't something we are either. We're we lucky to hit the shots against Davidson?

Were we not lucky to have Matt Carlino's foot microscopically over the 3pt line so we lost to Georgetown?

Were we not lucky to have the Hillbilly up and leave and take his toys with him because Marquette refused to make the President of the University accountable to the Head Basketball Coach?

Luck happens when everything else goes right. We had some gamers the year we went to the Elite 8.

If he would have stayed, he would have been drafted and likely given a contract. I hope it works out for him, but the GM's were right, Draft Express was right....he listened to the wrong people.

I'm still not sure I understand this line of thinking. If he was the same player after his senior season as he was after his junior season, why would he have been drafted? Is the assumption that he would have gotten better with the extra year in school?

Bucky has had some lucky calls along with some bad TOs by Sparty...

That blatant missed out of bounds play could determine the last 1 seed.

You gotta give Boski or someone on his staff kudos, most of there guys get better like Koenig.

Wisconsin now pulling away in OT. Cannot stand Ryan, but a damn good coach. And isn't Izzo something? Seems like every year he gets his team ready at tourney time!! What a stud!

I think so, but since they let them play on and the possession ended in a shooting foul, it must have slipped under the radar. Probably shouldn't have considering how huge the possession was. MSU choked in OT though, no points, ouch! Bucky should get a 1 seed now.

Yes. Refs should have reviewed it at the dead ball or Izzo could have requested it. Baffling.

Kansas v. WSU is going to be great.

Butler v. ND! Big matchups!

brewcity77 · « **Reply #70 on:** March 15, 2015, 05:09:32 PM »

Thought Notre Dame had a legit Final Four shot. Now I'm thinking they'll be lucky to see the Sweet 16. Pretty good avenue for Butler to make the second weekend, though Texas has a lot of talent.
