Sam Dekker talking some sh!t about MU today.  He should spend more time working on his three point shot and less time hanging out with Aaron Rodgers. https://twitter.com/dekker/status/904404877593284608

He didn't like being told the truth:

How about Oates response. Wow.

[We R Final Four]

I don't know who is a bigger clown---Tom Oates or Sam Dicker?

[Ellenson Guerrero]

How about Oates response. Wow.

How can one be that big of a homer and pretend to be a journalist?

Oates, been on him all summer about his Brewer takes...

[We R Final Four]

Those comments are great--those fans don't even know basic college basketball knowledge.

[MUEng92]

Professionalism is overrated.  Petulance...now that sells papers.  Oh that's right, that can't even sell papers anymore.

That's one sad "professional".

[DJO's Jaw]

These former Wisconsin players sure do have thin skin...

I just finished reading this whole thread by people who have even thinner skin.

Can't believe people actually get bothered by this.

I love a swipe at UW, but this made MU fans look as petty as Frank and Dekker.

That said, Oates is a pathetic excuse for a journalist.

I love a swipe at UW, but this made MU fans look as pretty as Frank and Dekker.

Aren't players supposed to trash their rivals?

Neither are pretty...now the polar bear OTOH has it going....

Agreed, Dekker comes off far better than anyone attempting to defend Marquette.

Who is MUBBNation, do they post here?

[MattyWarrior]

Oates is a real tool, he wants to be Bo Ryan! 

[fjm]

Sheesh. A lot of hatred in those tweets. I love it.

[MUBurrow]

Big whatever on Dekker's bulletin board material.

Oates on the other hand is lucky he made it through the Buzz era without printing something that got national media coverage and lost him his job. He's a joke and it'll happen sooner or later.

[GGGG]

He works for the Wisconsin State Journal.  That means he's bordering on irrelevancy anyway.

[wadesworld]

Those JUCOs that on average are making about 50x what Oates makes?

[spartan3186]

So we're just overlooking the fact that Buzz told Dekker to take a hike? That seems like a pretty big recruiting gaffe. You can say what you want but Dekker was a good player.

Everyone is also overlooking the tweet immediately before., where he counters a Badger fan saying MU is irrelevant

I mean, they're always relevant. I don't actually hate Marquette, just like getting people excitable.

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

In Madison they don't have journalists covering the Badgers, just fan boys and cheerleaders.

I don't think anyone is out here defending Buzz. He had some pretty clear recruiting deficiencies when it came to recruiting high school kids.

Not overlooked, but it's not exactly news.

It doesn't surprise me. We all know that Buzz like to recruit toughness, grit, and athleticism and for the most part didn't recruit many finesse type players. He told Scott Christopherson that he wasn't going to get any playing time for Marquette and encouraged him to transfer. He ended up going to Marquette West (IAST) and was an immediate starter and three point sniper that we sorely could have used on some of our teams. But Buzz was probably right, the style of ball he wanted to play wasn't going to allow Christopherson to see the floor. Say what you want about Buzz but he knew the players that were and weren't going to work for his system.

Insert joke about traditionals here:
