For the record, I agree with you here.  I thought the OP was a legit question. 

Looks like some people woke up on the wrong side of the bed today.

Come on, is Cain the most important recruit in the last 20 years? Legitimate question?  You're defending a guy who went on to call Heldt a Division III player?

Oh, and while we have a moderator here, isn't there a prohibition against calling other posters names?

I love this board. The condescending, elitist, know-it-all pricks really make me miss my MU days.

I guess MU is good-to-go at the forward position for the 2017-18 season. My bad.

Thank you for all you and the other mods do to make Scoop possible, but I'm guessing that you don't want everyone to feel like we can't disagree with a post of yours.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Does Marquette realize they admitted the murderer? (Which is probably better than admitting the dead guy.)

JUST WIN BABY!

Wade was a partial qualifier.....

So a lot of top tier schools shied away.....

Crean offered him a full scholarship......At the time having to go one player short for Wade's freshman year.....

Wade was a Top 5 player in Illinois and I believe runner-up for Mr. Basketball.....

True Merritt was ranked higher by the "services" but all big men in that era were "overly" ranked.....

Wade was not a surprise to be a star in college.....What was a little surprising that he became a perennial all-star with multiple NBA rings and certain future hall of famer.....

In my opinion.....Jimmy Butler's ascension to be a Top 10 player in the NBA is a much bigger surprise.....

Once Wade scored 88 points in a Holiday Doubleheader, the gig was up, everyone knew a star was headed north.

Your opinion.....Fact is.....Starting in the NBA all star game......

Sure.....a popularity contest......But one of the Top 10 players.....Five on the East.....Five on the West......

Westbook has to be in there .....So Top 11.....

Which is it? Either the 10 best players start in the All Star game or they don't. If they do then Westbrook isn't one. If they don't then starting in the All Star game doesn't prove Jimmy is a top 10 player.
