Both Hausers to transfer.

[NickelDimer]

Absolute mental midgets

Wonder if the year of sitting out will help Joey to not turn the ball over 5 possessions in a row to singlehandedly lose the team a game vs a non tourney team at home.

Hopefully this at least means its Cain time. Someone with a little heart.

That just made me throw up in my mouth a little

[BubbaWilliams]

I am a Bulls fan. If they go and play for Hoidberg, I will just stop watching basketball.

[Goose]

Their dream definitely was not to watch Howard shoot 50 times a game.

[Pakuni]

Not true, at least not the whole truth

OK ... so now that it's official and you seem to have some insight, could you be a little less vague?

[GB Warrior]

We'll let the story shake itself out, but I'll say this, if they were unhappy with their role, it's their own damn fault. Neither one was willing or able to routinely assert themselves.

That being said, there's room on the fire wojo bandwagon, kids. Kids coming out of high school are going to start sensing a pattern...

[GooooMarquette]

Bailed on a top 5 team where they would be getting prime minutes. 

Give me the guy who doesn't quit on his team.

Yep. And someone who doesn't leave because he is "only" the #2 or #3 option on a top 5 team.

[NickelDimer]

Their dream definitely was not to watch Howard shoot 50 times a game.

Exactly. Sam waving his arms like a madman while Markus yet again tried for the heroics vs SH was very telling.

[TheGym]

The team just got better defensively

[mumagz84]

Wow! To leave a potential top 10 team next season, this is a Hauser vs. Wojo thing.  Wojo's days are numbered.

[JoeSmith1721]

This is the day and age we live in, all these kids / parents think they're going to make the NBA and they'll do whatever they can to try and make it happen. College bball is becoming less and less of a team sport every year.

You can't really blame Markus or the Hauser's, they're just trying to do whatever they can to make it at the next level. This all falls on Wojo and I think regardless of what happens next year, sans a Final Four, that will be his last year in Milwaukee.

[Warrior1969]

Exactly. Sam waving his arms like a madman while Markus yet again tried for the heroics vs SH was very telling.

This is exactly right   NOT shocking at all guys would NOT want to play with Markus!!!!!

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

WHAT.THE.unnatural carnal knowledge.

[Bocephys]

Did Sam graduate early? Joey will lose a whole year of eligibility, right?

It must have been really awful for both of them to sit out a year at this point.

[Mike Deane's Seat Belt]

Joey is not a star by any means.  Sam turned out to be far better.

The fact that we were a pre season top 5 pick is a joke.  Wayyyyyy too much of an over estimate

Wojo has one season left to make something of this mess.  The loss of the hausers is on him.   If he can make gold still with the mess of a roster we have now.  Fine keep him.   The program may very well be in shambles now.  Might even lose prospects with him staying

[Goose]

I will say, this is a dark moment in program history. Not often that the backbone of the program hit the bricks. Sadly, my gut says Wojo has no clue this was going to happen.

[RJax55]

Wow! To leave a potential top 10 team next season, this is a Hauser vs. Wojo thing.  Wojo's days are numbered.

That's two WI families that now have left MU under Wojo extremely poorly.

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Don't forget Joey losing a whole year of eligibility to transfer.

[MUfanatic45]

JOey to Virginia?????


Bennett abandoning defense and ball security???

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Don't forget Joey losing a whole year of eligibility to transfer.

Does he lose a whole year because he used his redshirt already? 

[Anti-Dentite]

Joey is not a star by any means.  Sam turned out to be far better.

At this point, I would not be surprised that Wojo does not survive this in the very near future.

[martyconlonontherun]

Wonder where they go? They will be in high demand but what other top 10 teams would basically guarantee them 2/3rd options with 30 mpg each (though Joey sits).

[Warrior_2002]

Definitely on Wojo.  And now we are stuck with a waste year.

[StillAWarrior]

Damn.  I'm really going to miss those guys.  They were both really nice players, and I thought we had a great thing coming together for next season.

I'm really disappointed by some of the crap that people on this board are already saying about them.  We just lost two really, really good players.  For some reason, things at MU were bad enough that they're walking out on what could have been a special season.  This situation is disturbing, but it's really sad that some fans feel it's necessary to trash them on their way out the door.

[BM1090]

You know damn well they are both headed to Wisconsin.

Wisconsin would be blocked.

[LAZER]

Really curious what Sam is looking for at his next school.
