Recruiting as of 6/15/26

...so, give up? Recruiting nationally hasn't exactly resulted in winning of late. Work it w/HS coaches, AAU coaches, players etc in-state too. Or not. Sub .500 since 01/25. But hey, those out of staters CH and Clark have improved, Owens is healthy.

I assure you, they're kicking the tires on every kid they want or see as a fit.  Spending extra time and resources inside of a meaningless boundary is foolish. 

Recruiting is national.

The recruiting that lead to last year's disappointment was clearly not good enough. But that has nothing to do with where the recruits came from.

I think Shaka is purposely excluding white kids from Wisconsin, tbh

yes, national. I don't disagree. However...backyard is hardly a resource burn. Iowa State, and others, thank MU's seeming ambivalence.

Consider, that it isn't ambivalence.  Any player in the top 100 RSCI is at least getting a phone call to a player to determine fit and interest.  If there isn't a good fit, and there isn't mutual interest both parties move on.  Your obsession with having kids from Wisconsin play at Marquette is strange.  Not everyone from the state wants to stay home to go to school.

Marquette recruited Donovan Davis very hard so that one wasn't for a lack of trying. 

While MU recruited Batemon, Yusef Gray and Leon Bond, I don't have the confidence to say they recruited as hard as Davis.  They may have.  I was told by a friend that Davis was a major target.
