The year after FF was an important year for the program and Crean failed. Building off FF was crucial and the team laid an egg. I felt that was turning point of Crean era and the start of the end for him.

He got james McNeal Matthews and Lazar. He missed the tournament once (?) I'm not sure that's really a bad ending.

Related to Marquette, or his financial situation (being fined $60 million by the SEC, barred from managing money for life and seeing the dissolution of his financial empire)?

I mean... come on right? Without Markus we wouldn’t have won! Or something... whatever. Now I’m just being sassy.

Good W. Great game. Showed a lot of strength in an ugly game. Hauser kept a level head after getting hammered with some tough calls.

so did theo...those refs must have spent 5 minutes looking for something they thought they saw during the play and it just didn't happen.  the damn thing shouldn't have even been called a foul.  the refs are looking at 2 different tv monitors wondering where the blood went

Theo got fouls called on him for the same reason that red sports cars get speeding tickets.
Have some patience, FFS.

Honestly I thought only one of Theo's fouls was a bad call, and that was on his block.  And even then I think the problem was with the follow through.  The way they were calling the game, the rest were at least consistent.

Funny thing is, the one they were reviewing for 5 minutes was the least agregious. Yes I realize they were looking for appendages to the head and neck region, but even at full speed, it was just 2 guys jockeying for position. The defenders neck didn’t snap back or anything, so there was really nothing that stood out about the play.  it seemed at times the refs were micromanaging and at other times letting them play.  But the players(nor the fans) knew when and where that would be.

My son being at the game, said he had never heard so much complaining about the refs after a solid win. The 2 technicals,didn’t help, but when the refs are part of the conversation after a win, that’s not good.

Theo got his arm up to clear space.   It was the right call.    The reviewed to see if it was flagrant.   It wasn't.   Ultimately, the officials agreed that it was just two big guys jockeying for position but the offensive guy got his arm up.     Right call, just another delay in a game without flow.

I understand *why* they reviewed the play.  By the rules they should have.  I have no idea why it took so long to come to the conclusion they did.  It was pretty obvious the first time they showed the replay. 

I thought by far the two worst calls were the technicals.  Both were immediate, very short reactions and neither were directed at the officials.  And in college basketball, those count towards personal fouls which took two of the best players on the court out of the game.  There was zero reason for the ref to call either one of them.

Agree on both technicals.    The K-state one was the defender chasing Markus off a screen with a bump.   Ticky tack and he reacted.  Sam's felt like a make up call.   It sure looked like a good defensive play, and then the same ref had the same short fuse.    Both were wrong.

Fred Hoiberg was just fired from the Bulls. If the Wojo experiment doesn't work out, maybe we would give "The Mayor" a shot.

I have a feeling he will probably end up a very hot commodity if he does return to the college ranks. That said, I'd be very surprised if Marquette went after Hoiberg. He's a great offensive mind and will win wherever he goes, but something tells me admin wouldn't consider him.

And Jim Boyle’s is promoted to coach - at least for now.

Start it now, why not ?  Poor discipline. Poor coaching. Jacking up 3 pointers. Poor defense. No accountability. Another year of disappointment. Another year of poor defense against 3, poor interior defense and poor shooting. That's it ! How many millions does MU spend on BBall ?

Maybe I should give more warnings. 82 already got a vacation. This counts as insult / disrespect. Don't do it, or you too can get a vacation.

Not to mention, that was on a 2015 comment!

Maybe. But for a lease a few days you folks are going to be civil to each other, or else!

BTW, there are several ways to have the same effect as RCs post without calling someone a "dumbass"
