Theo is a beast who has the potential to become a really good player. I would be happy if he talked a little less sh!t and let his play speak for itself. Putting him in a team picture with Maurice or Jae is premature at best.

IDK young Skywalker and I'm sure someone will come up with one but I'll throw out Maurice Lucas for ya; the baddest MU baller ever.

I've been watching MU a long time and I think ML is a good comparison. Been a while since we had a player like Theo.

One thing that I am struck by is how much he has improved. Think about how far he has come non conference last year, conference last year, non conference this year......If continues to improve like he has we will be talking about bad, bad Theo John(just like Leroy Brown) for a long time.

His presence is underestimated by other teams. SJU fans talking about him being soft is just them whistling in the dark.....

Ring Out Ahoya....Beat GU!

Theo is developing as you might expect an athletic 3 star big to develop.    JB was making Faisal Abraham comps when he signed.    He has to foul less.    And save them for fouls around the basket, not silly fouls handing the ball off to a guard.   Particularly with Morrow injured.    Matt is an experienced Big East center, but there is a reason he is now the third string center.    The ability to guard in space.    So, Theo needs to take the next step in his development and improve his ability to be physical without fouling.

Agreed.

He has gotten much better at this as a sophomore than he was as a freshman, and I like to think he will be much better as a junior.

That has always been his issue, but I think his fractured/separated toe has left him with even less lateral mobility.  I think a healthy/seasoned Ike would make Matt 4th string.

Who had the toddler daughter they showed hundreds of times on the Jumbotron in the cheerleader outfit dancing around? Adorable, and definitely knew when the camera was on her!

Sacar has shown his worth a lot this year. One of the unsung heroes. Great at getting to the basket and finishing. Solid on D and can rebound/make some passes. He's a big part of this team's success.

Played great 2 of the last 3 games. And he was fine in the other, just didn't score as much.

I know... just wanted to check the stats out of curiosity. I went to school with Faisal... first time I saw Theo I thought the same thing I did when I first stood next to Faisal.. "damn, this dude is built" (nh)

Theo's shot blocking has been better earlier than I thought it would... great to have him on the squad.

That reminds me of a question I have had about college basketball in the past concerning players who have deficiencies in certain areas:  Is there such a thing as "consultant" coaches that specialize in super-targeted areas like ball-handling or free throws?  And if so, are college programs allowed to bring people like that to work with a particular player?

Why do you continue to do this when you know it is offensive to LGBTQ members on this site?

Damn old man, I barely remember even watching Faisal play.

He was a gem when I worked in the felt.  His dad, as well (RIP).  Nice kid, amazing work ethic and teammate.  Chose Marquette because he liked our practice shorts.  Lol.  At least that is what he told the staff.

Bob Lackey The Black Swan

10-4 Brother Herman.

Lucas was an absolute nice guy compared to Lackey. Lcakey was something else and if not my favorite Warrior of all time, damn close to being my favorite. Very colorful character.

NJ take on game: https://www.app.com/story/sports/college/2019/01/12/seton-hall-marquette-basketball/2553364002/

They have high opinions of themselves:
"And Myles Powell (21 points, 9 rebounds) was the best player on the floor (again). They should be favored in the returning meeting March 6, and if they meet again on a neutral floor."

Not necessarily wrong.   I agree they will be favored at home.

This is how they prove it. Have a better BE record than MU at the end...and beat MU soundly at their place. But until then, 1-0 Marquette.
