If destination is UW

[mujivitz06]

Not sure if this has been talked about, honestly haven't read a word of this thread..my apologies. BUT If they go to Madison, Sam's only game against us will be at the FF in 2 years. Will he/they be boo'd or applauded?

If they are Badgers, wearing red, fighting for them, trying to help them win, and beat us, probably booed. It's pretty simple for me.

If they are wearing Red, neither booed or applauded, complete indifference, like any other time the opposing team is introduced.

According to multiple students in the MU athletic dept, they're going to UW. Sam's girl is there and they're going to the Mifflin Block Party this weekend.  I would expect an official announcement once they finish with their semester at MU.

Everything about this sucks, since I actually liked Sam. I hope UW assumes their rightful position of Big Ten dormat.

Mifflin was LAST weekend when they were there.

I wouldn't hold your breath. The last time they were near the bottom of the league was their 3-13 finish over 20 years ago (1997-98). The last time they actually finished bottom of the league was 1984-85.

It's always amazed me about UW fans that they blast MU fans for talking about 1977 because it was over 40 years ago...yet Badger Basketball fans believe their "history" starts in 2000. How quickly they forget that prior to that, on a yearly basis, they were literally one of the worst high major programs in the country..it was glorious. But for some reason, the fans that were old enough to remember, don't ever want to talk about it and only wanna talk about 2000-current.

[Warrior of Law]

During the 70s & 80s, UW had the fortune of playing Northwestern twice a season when they were absolutely mailing it in. With Sam, UW will be decent in 2021-22, but then reality will hit.

So they've cancelled the other campus visits?

I'm sure Sam and Joey have been sure to tell everyone on campus that they are going to UW, because they'd never get any blow  back from that, right??

To be fair, what does the past really have to do with what is going on today? If we're focusing on the past then UTEP, Loyola Chicago and CCNY are hoops powerhouses and the best rivalry in the ACC is UNC/NC State. It sucks but the fact is since 1994 they've been to the tourney 22 times with 3 Final Fours, while we've been to the tourney 15 times with 1 Final Four. The past is great but it means nothing for the present and for me, I'd rather discuss what's happening now than trying to use something that happened when I was 9 months old to claim bragging rights.

We've been talking about reality catching up with UW for over two decades now. Bennett brought them to a Final Four. Bo coached them at a Hall of Fame level. And like Gard or not, he has 3 NCAA appearances in 4 seasons with two Sweet 16 trips. Maybe that's all Happ, maybe they will fall off the cliff now, but Trice/Davison/Reuvers is a decent trio of players to lead them for the next two years. If they get the Hausers, 2020-21 could be a really good year for them. Are we assuming they won't recruit anyone between now and then? Or they will only get walk-on caliber players?

I'm not overwhelmed with Gard, but the program hasn't collapsed. People thought it would collapse when they were 9-9 (1-4) under Bo/Gard in 2016. They went to the Sweet 16. People thought they would collapse after Hayes & Koenig left in 2017 & they had a poor 2018, but they bounced back to the tournament & equaled our seed. I don't think anyone will confuse them with Michigan State any time soon, but they idea that reality is about to hit and their program will fall apart when all they've done is win for the better part of two decades seems just a touch premature.

If that's the case then why add Iowa to the list and visit there if they and you are already certain of their destination?
They don't owe Iowa anything.

Sam and Joey Hauser are not visiting Michigan State this weekend and instead will focus on finals at Marquette. They plan to take additional visits following exams. Both Hauser boys visited Wisconsin last weekend. Possible visits in future include Iowa, Michigan State, Virginia.

Let me go out on a limb and suggest they won't be making other visits.

its probably one of the worst kept secrets out there. It's been a lock for UW since they announced they were transferring. They are just waiting until finals are over and they can get out if Dodge. Joey always wanted UW but the parents told him to go to MU with big bro.

This will make closure easier that's for sure. They'll both be the enemy and dead to me as if they were never Warriors if they in fact go UW

I long ago decided I hope they go there. Much easier to "hate" them. Will enjoy beating them.

Will be a grand ole time if Sam and company come into FF and beat MU.

Hopefully not a "grand ole time" for anybody who actually is a Marquette fan.

They are F%ckies now. The enemy. I wouldn't think any Warriors fan who disliked Ponds and company coming into FF and beating MU should feel any better should Sam and company be lucky enough to do it. Indeed, given the level of hate for F%cky, I'd feel worse about it.

Thankfully, it won't happen. We're gonna kick butt against the guys who quit our program, just as we've beaten F%cky 3 of the last 4 years.
