The men's volleyball team plays in the same arena as the men's basketball team at LUC and men's volleyball sold more tickets/game for men's volleyball than they did men's basketball in the 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 seasons.

LUC has message boards? You sure it's not just a group text with like 6 guys?

Surprisingly active considering the school has had like three good years in their history. This thread has a bit of MU hate but a quick search of Marquette or Big "Least" shows they definitely are not our biggest fans

Remember when people wanted Porter Moser instead of Wojo?

Just jealous they're not in the Big East. If they want to be mad at anyone, be mad at DePaul for not improving. Completely eliminated the need for the BE to invite a new team to be the punching bag.

Interesting. Seems like it's a few people mad at us for either not scheduling them or for leaving them in the MCC way back when.

Speaking of LUC, they got doubled up on the road by a sub 500 Missouri State.
Assume what I say should be in teal if it doesn't pass the smell test for you.

Sub 500? That’s bad.

161 on kenpom. So not the worst. But still not great. Especially when its 70-35 at the buzzer.

Oh got it, .500. Thought you had a typo and meant sub 300 of something.

If they only knew how emotionally invested I got in them last March.  Can't we all just get along.  Except Dayton, nobody needs them.  ABD.

I'm with you dgies!  Jax would be great. 15 min drive in from the beach for me, and two breweries walking distance from the arena.  Not a big alum presence here, however.  If the opening rounds coincide with Spring Break we might get more students than normal...

I'm down on the Treasure Coast and a few years ahead of you, alumni-wise.

Good starting place for our second NatChamp.

Also, I'm betting that there's enough MU alums in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas that might make the trip (not far from any of those places). GO WARRIORS!!!!

If Moser had any chance to go to a real program and didn't take it, wow.

He's probably more likely to get fired by LUC than to get that chance again.

He's won himself a life time at LUC now, there's next to zero expectations at that school. Barring the BE coming in and saying "if you win for the next four years we'll invite you" he's basically only got to have occasional NIT maybe NCAAs to stick there.

Yeah, there's a couple guys who are mad at Marquette for leaving the MCC for greener pastures, insinuating that we left them in the lurch. That's funny because I think Marquette may actually have one of the shortest tenures in the MCC/Horizon League - we were only in it for 3 seasons.

LUC had an awesome run last year, but that was one of the biggest anomalies in a coach's career in recent memory. In 12 previous seasons, Porter Moser had never gone to the tournament and never had a top-75 team per Pomeroy. 9 of his previous 12 teams had been sub-100 teams.

It was a great run and awesome story, but it was wholly improbable and there has been nothing in his coaching career to indicate that would happen. Worth noting, they are back to being a sub-100 team this year. He did a great job last year, but doesn't really seem to be all that great of a coach if you look at the balance of his career and not just March of 2018.

Agreed on all points. Fun story last year, and he seems like a genuinely good guy, but if Wojo had Moser's same track record at MU (even adjusted for our level), he would have been fired already.

I like to check in on schools that have been considered Big East expansion candidates. SLU fans are still super salty over us leaving them in CUSA, like there was ever a chance we would have turned down the Big East.

SB Nation's updated bracket. MU is a 3 seed, # 9 in the s-curve, playing in Jacksonville. Highest I've seen so far.

Don't think Palm had as as high on the s-curve, tho? I saw us slotted at 12 in a bracket, but don't recall anyone slotting us as the top 3 seed.
Maybe I missed it somewhere in.
