Recruiting as of 6/15/26

[Uncle Rico]

Jim Chones seems like the obvious answer.

McIlvaine, Diener, Novak, Wes, Burton, Ellenson all warrant a mention but it's comes Chones #1.

He has the benefit of playing against Alcindor, too

[Galway Eagle]

So who was the greatest Marquette recruit out of Wisconsin?

Terry Rand, he put the program on the national stage in 55

[Zog from Margo]

I agree that Chones is likely the best. Don Kojis, Tony Smith, and Allie McGuire also were very good, although Kojis was before my time watching hoops. Lots of good players from the state: Robert Jackson, Terry Sanders, Scott Merritt, Anthony Pieper, Gary Rosenberger, Dean Marquardt, Robb Logtermann, Trevor Powell, Vander Blue, Sam Hauser, etc. to name a few. The list of the ones that got away might be even more impressive. Fun to look back.
