Myron Metcalf, SuperTroll


This one is spectacular, and not easy to explain.  There is an ESPN basketball analyst, Myron Metcalf who has shown a propensity to write negative things about MU.  He published a story about disappointing teams in the 2015 season.  Unbeknownst to the Scoop community Benny B decided to troll them by adding text that made it look like Myron was unjustifiably attacking MU basketball.  Scoopers took this seriously and decided to use social media to berate Myron.  Here's where it gets good....even after Benny was outted in the thread Scoopers still thought it was real and got re-trolled.  Additionally, Myron in his zeal to defend himself, outted himself as the Skip Bayless of college basketball.  It was so meta as to blow your mind


Catholic 7

Gather around kids, once upon a time there were things such as conferences where rivalry and loyalty mattered, but then came the concept of conference realignment(also known as the giant money grab).  In 2012, the conference realignment forced by football money impacted Marquette with the disbandment of the Big East as it was at the time(Syracuse, Pitt and Louisville leaving), forcing some decisions to be made.  As the initial dust started to settle, it became apparent that one path to survival was to form a basketball only league with the 7 basketball only schools remaining in the Big East.  These 7 schools also happened to be private Catholic schools.  So Catholic 7 became a meme when referring to this core group sailing the basketball ship on the conference realignment sea.

Maybe I'm biased because I got Myron to out himself as the online Skip Bayless, but Benny's trolling on this was beyond epic.

Required reading.  Watching this develop real-time was fun.
