Poll

How do you view the overall state of Marquette's basketball program today?

A -- On the right path, headed for being a strong if not elite program. It's just a matter of time.
B -- Good program with some weaknesses that need to be addressed in the off-season.
C -- Average program for an upper level NCAA school. Needs to improve substantially to become strong if not elite.
D -- Borderline program that has significant deficiencies, including coaching and on-court personnel.
F --  Abject failure. Burn the thing to the ground and start over.

State of the Program
« on: April 10, 2018, 12:07:13 PM »
OK, we've had quite a bit of debate on Wojo, the team and the coaching staff. I'm curious what Scoopers think the state of our program really is. Does Marquette's basketball program appear on the right track overall, or do we need some serious course corrections.

The pool uses an "A" to "F" grading system.

So where are we today? And how do you think it compares to a year ago?

I was thinking the same thing. I think I will rubberneck this one. I have a feeling no one has changed their opinion much over the past couple of weeks.

I don't think the grades match the descriptions.  I'd give the current grade a B-, but I think the description you provided for A is closer to how I feel about the program direction. 

Not sure any changes really need to be made this offseason, beyond vastly improving D, which I think will happen simply due to personnel.

I think we should start another thread about expectations while we're at it.

If we can't have a football team called the warriors coached by McAdams, then who cares?

In all seriousness, couldn't this thread/poll have waited until we see what the offseason brings in terms of reinforcements for 2018-19?

If Wojo lands one of the best grad transfer PGs and also a top recruit, I would think folks might be a little more optimistic overall than if we go into next season with the status quo.

Damn straight, though I gave them a "B" and I do think we are headed in the right direction.  ;D

I'm a tough grader, but I show up when I'm in town and watch when I am not.

Gee, if we think Arby's is excellent dining, why don't we just take some old blue books, remove the staples and eat them too.

Bet they taste the same as an Arby's Roast beef if you put some Horsey Sauce on them.

This, big difference if we swing and miss on our grad transfer vs. landing our man.
