Biggest win of Wojo era and where are the trolls?

[RideMyBuycks]

No I wouldn't. I just expect them to hold on to late leads, especially when the lead is large. Their inability to close out games this season is well documented. There are losses that players, coaches and fans can totally accept. and there are demoralizing blown leads that are inexcusable and infuriating. The Pitt, @SHU and @Prov all fall under the category of choke jobs. I just call it like I see it.

Just win baby

Must be wearing Al Davis' Coke bottle glasses if that's what you're seein, hey?

In two of the three losses you mention, Marquette won the next game.  (And in the one they lost they were @ Nova.)

How "demoralizing" were they?

You have to ask the Mods where Ners and Chicos are?

Every Marquette fan should be used to the bolded. Buzz lost two to three games a season after enjoying a double digit lead in the second half.

evidently the trolls have moved on to the Xavier forums and are after 2016 National Coach of the Year, Chris Mack.

a few samplings:
Marquette has passed Xavier in terms of talent. I never thought that would happen again. They were better in the 1970s and most of the 1980s. Looks like we have returned to being their cream puff on the schedule like when McGuire used to beat the Tay Baker teams.

Mack getting schooled and our defense is terrible

Wojo is giving Mack a clinic. Out of halftime they get a foul and a great shot in transition. X gets a one on one airball by their PG and a fall away 3 from Macura because their first pass is way too high. Just an average coach trying to coach up above average talent.

It is time to start a coaching search. The team is in a good position to land a quality coach, there is no reason to wait for this to become a rebuilding.

Mack sat down most of game and made no adjustments at all. What is more concerning is the lack of improvement in some of our players

Watching this team struggle is painful and worse than a root canal. Not sure they belong in the NIT. At least we shouldn't have to worry about losing the coach this year.

This gave me a good laugh. Their 6 game slide has been pretty tough to stomach I'm sure but it has been against the upper half of the league with 3 of them being on the road. Throw in losing their two best players for a good chunk of time and it isn't earth shattering....though a loss to Depaul would be.

Irrational stupidity and whining know no bounds.

Outside of West Holloway and Crawford i can't think of any X player that would have started for us from 05-13

They lost Myles Davis too.  To be fair though, I think he was on his seventh season of eligibility.

This was a great win...zero doubt about that. But...just to play devil's advocate..it's hard for anyone that's rational to argue, had they just won some of the games they blew big leads in not to mention losing to PC at home(that one will stick with me for awhile), they wouldn't be in a situation where this game was a must win. Truth be told, knowing what we know now and with the way the season unfolded, a bid to the NCAA's should have been wrapped up a long time ago, and they should have just been playing for seeding this last month or so. That being said, they ended up getting the job done(hopefully) regardless, it should just have been a lot easier then it was.

You're right and the same can be said for 95% of all programs in any given year.  And yes, there have been leads lost in frustrating fashion this year, but calling out blowing leads ~18 hours after hanging onto a big lead is odd

fair enough, but sometimes a bad loss leads to a good win, a good win to a bad loss(es), a good win to more good wins(aren't all wins good?) and then the ole slippery slope(ask X)

      evidently...i thought after the 'nova win, we were going to be really geeked up and finish up strong with the exception of a hiccup or so.  look across the ncaa board-every team has losses that never should have been. every game is a new game. what is the key to winning and to continue to win?  A LOT!  preparation, motivation, consistency, minimizing distractions, travel, injuries, preparation/coaching, unsung heroes...and on and on.  we are dealing with human beings here, and we are inconsistent and human.  makes one appreciate what wojo is doing here and has done over the last 3 years

This one's my absolute favorite. Reads like it was copied word-for-word from about 9,000 posts here on Scoop.
