Purdon’t game thread

[jonny09]

We don't have a coach that can maximize the talent that we have. In other words, I'm not sure Wojo can coach. He came from a system that had tremendous talent.

No need to not be sure.  Wojo can't coach.  Everything looks the same year in year out. I was hoping I'd be wrong.  God does it suck being in college basketball hell

[Mr. Sand-Knit]

This is last year's game against Indiana.  Horrible.  The season isn't over.  I think we will be better than this but let's admit it....  this is an okay but only okay team (at best). If we make the tournament that will be really great. If we win one that will be fantastic...

Iu had two pros and it was on the road.

He is who he is at this point. Never exceeds expectations, slightly underperforms them at best. Marquette should've realized he was not the guy last year and ended it. Stop wasting years keeping on a coach everyone knows is not "that" coach who will take us where we want to go.

Kobys better than Chartouny. Much worse than expected

Not sure. Koby looks bad. Why isn't Symir playing?

[GoldenDieners32]

I feel weirdly ok right now. I can't imagine us ever shooting worse than that half. 13 points at home is doable.

[Warrior of Law]

The fact is that recruiting has been unsuccessful.  These guys aren't very good basketball players. It's a shooters game, and MU ain't got em.

[MUUWUWM]

The sky is falling the sky is falling, my God you guys are a bunch of hairy wet cats

[Galway Eagle]

Not sure. Koby looks bad. Why isn't Symir playing?

I think he looks stronger with the ball than JOSEPH did. Not great but better. Idk about Symir. I'm six rows behind the MU bench and he seems ok.

[Stretchdeltsig]

It seems that Wojo gets to excited to talk. He doesn't communicate well in the huddle and doesn't coach or teach.

Why don't we see how we respond in the 2nd half before we start burning Wojo at the stake

[AlienWarrior]

I think purdue has more offensive rebounds than we have total.  Its terrible
I have been in support of wojo thru 5 years but this may be my limit.  We dont have much talent.  Offensive scheme is horrible.  3 guys stand around while we run high ball acreen that is our entire offense.  Pirdue is screening off the ball all over the place and getting people open.  Painter is making Wojo look like hes never coached before. 
Additionally we have numerous guys that are incapable cain, sacar, mcewen, theo, bailey, ed are all basically offensively bankrupt.

Exactly, we are being out coached. Wojo will be hard pressed to get the quality talent here that will overcome his inability to coach.

Actually that's the one thing that has been going well. Unfortunately, the recruits never really seem to progress that much under Wojo. A better coach would get significantly more out of the accumulated talent on Marquette than Wojo does...every year.

Not a chance he was going to be gone last year. This was the year he was working toward.

Hausers leaving meant this year wasn't going to meet expectations and might be viewed as the beginning of the end.

[Anti-Dentite]

Ok, we'll wait.

[NCMUFan]

Well, let's all hope for some positives in the 2nd half.  Decent defense, some good shots going in. 

[Mutaman]

Exactly. Its like Packer fans and Mike McCarthy- we need to be more patient with the guy.

Never said that. Said they should have. Wasted a year another coach could have had implementing his program.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

So many f'n turds in this thread.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

Greg needs to work on that pose!

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Oh Greg...Let's leave the flexing to Theo.

[whitykj]

Exactly. Its like Packer fans and Mike McCarthy- we need to be more patient with the guy.

[GoldenDieners32]

Stop then bucket let's go boys

[Vander Blue Man Group]

McEwen sucks, huh?

[Mike Deane's Seat Belt]

Cain is so damn out of control and launching absolute stones tonight.  Cut his minutes asap

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

Chart didnt have that move last year.
