The future is bright.  The present is inexperienced.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

Henry has improved a lot since start of season.  Going to be hard to replace him.
Traci will be fun to watch at PG

I'd say the future is moderately well-lit.  Obviously, HE stays and the light brightens considerably.

It's a shame Henry is likely gone. Could be a special team next year if he stayed.

Maybe. If we don't replace Henry we will be middle of the pack again next year.

Henry is really good.  Future will be dimmer when he leaves.  Although, Duane, Luke and Sandy had subpar nights and MU still won.  Chatham good and getting better.  I'm warming on Traci.  He's tough minded.  Opposite of Sandy right now, he wants the ball.

Clearly we're domed as Woj doesn't read efficiency statistics correctly.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

What was the final tally on TOs?

Seems like we were under our average tonight

Not finishing out DePaul is all that stands between us and a tie for sixth place.

Xavier. 2 halves vs Nova. 2 Providence games.

Depaul. Seton Hall x2.

This team is good. This team is inconsistent.

beat providence at home....most years that hasn't mean much but this year it does....not sure if that is positive or negative for the 'state of the program'.

I hope we keep looking better each week

Big win and will take what we can get but tried to give this game away at the end to a struggling Providence team. 

Is it inexperience or lack of basketball IQ? 

Haanif taking a shot at the end when you wait to get fouled.  Leaving Bentil wide open on 3s when he was the only offense when Dunn fouled out.

The optimist in me says this team's play is on the upswing and they could be poised to make a deep run in the BEast tourney.

The pessimist in me says I hope they can beat DePaul on the road.

It's just one of those years.

13, and what's most impressive is 7 of those were in the first half. We gave away the lead with first half turnovers, but only turned it over 6 times in the last 30 minutes.

I can't see Henry going pro.  He's a liability on defense (pointed out repeatedly by recent announcers), he's not showing the outside game as advertised, and he disappears an awful lot.  Wade had 3 years in college, Butler 4, etc.  Henry can be a top 5 pick, but if he waits 1 more year he'll have a lot more polish, play much more, contribute more, and have more fun. Plus he'll get another year of playing with Wally.

You're going to be real disappointed when he's drafted in the top 8.

As far as state of the program, no different than it was four hours ago. We're a young, transitioning team. The jury will be out on how good the team and coach is until they collectively grow up. We have some nice wins and some inexplicable losses. Both fun and frustrating to watch.
