I think Howard is a very good player and someone that will be remembered fondly for years by any knowledgeable MU fan. My only gripe on him is the stupid GOAT threads.

As for Wojo, my thoughts have not changed over past three years, he is in over his head if MU wants to have a real basketball program.
IMO, Markus is the greatest offensive talent MU has ever had. He has destroyed the record books.

I am turning into a NOJO more and more each day.

Wade or Novak are the greatest. The game was just a lot different 18 years ago.

IMO Wade or Lee were the two best All Around players, but honestly Wade couldnt shout outside of 15 feet. Novak might have been the best pure shooter, but he was limited offensively as well.

I am done for the week. I am approaching Chicos like numbers today. Peace

Wade didnt shoot outside of 15 feet because he didn't learn to. If he was a player in 2020 theres no doubt in my mind he would have a killer 3 point shot.

Have to remember that things like EFG and taking long distance shots are a relatively new theory

The timeouts were a joke. That was an embarrassing moment in program history.

LOL

Having MU the front page of the Chicago tribune with rape allegations and how we handled it was embarrassing moment in program history.

Calling a timeout late in a game is hardly one.

Guy's in over his head. Dude's gotta go.

I hope he does, takes every recruit and the next non unicorn takes five years until you all eject him, too.


Going to be awesome....can you feel it?


I don’t really hope this, but maybe the unicorn fantasies with some would finally be buried.

Was Cooley playing dirty and a disgrace, because he not only kept his starters in but was putting on a full-court press up double digits, even before we started fouling?

It's basketball. It is all about getting into the NCAA tournament and that means a higher NET rating. Cooley had on the full court press for the same reason Wojo played hard to the end.
Yep.  That’s the bottom line.  Some posters here are really off the wall.

Right...that’s why I am paying $30k a year right now to the school and typically attend several games a year despite living in So Cal....right.   Good Lord.

No, I just don’t want to start over again and laugh at the knee jerk nonsense in losing three games to teams no one should be surprised we lost to.  Two in the road to good teams, one at home to arguably a top ten team in the country.  The pants pissing here remains incredible.

Whatever.

Personally, I want Wojo back next next year.

The fact that you believe that if Wojo leaves or gets fired will virtually be the end of MU basketball shows you know nothing about the program or the great university that is Marquette.

Agreed to disagree. Enjoy you day.

You were the one who said I wasn't a fan of Marquette University....which is an off the wall ridiculous statement.  Don't come at me with "whatever".

Did I say if Wojo leaves (could happen, wouldn't blame him) or gets fired (not going to happen) means the end of MU basketball....also a completely false statement. I do, however, believe it means further delaying stability which is an absolute fact.  Throw in this stupidity about free agency nonsense and it's a recipe for disaster.

Enjoy your day and if you could please stop with lying about what people haven't said...thanks.

I would  assume Jamie means that he would not blame him for going to a program where averaging 21 wins a year for 5 years with a top 10 class coming in is considered something to be appreciated, not reason for termination.

If Wojo leaves because a couple yahoos on Scoop want him gone and some drunken students called him a cuck and boo at the beginning of games, it’d make him the softest coach in the business.  Or, as he might say in a post game presser, “one of the softest coaches in the United States.”

If I was being booed and people were pissing on the best player to come through MU in quite some time, all while taking the program to the tournament 3 of 4 years and the best recruiting class in years coming next...I can do that elsewhere and not freeze my arse off with people waiting for Al’s ghost to walk through the door.

It would be more than just a couple of yahoos....it’s the overall nonsense.  The same one other coaches at MU have told me about when I worked there and after I left.  We are overly entitled and stuck on what happened a long time ago.  It’s a very good job, but people don’t stay because when you win it isn’t enough and people start getting that tingle down their leg....anD if you don’t win enough then you are out anyway.  As one coach told me years ago....it’s a blessing and a curse that a number of other programs don’t have.  You become a victim of any success you create.
