Let’s have a hand for Markus Howard

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Regardless of what a few of the long-toothers say, he's on MU's Mt. Rushmore. Could possibly be the best scorer that will ever play at Marquette. I hope we get a couple in March for his sake.

Possibly?  No one is touching that scoring record.  Ever.

BIG EAST Player of the Week
Markus Howard, Marquette, G, Sr. – Howard posted a pair of 30-point games in a 1-1 week.  The senior began with a 30-point effort in a 93-72 victory against Georgetown.  In his final home game on Saturday, Howard poured in 37 points in an 88-79 loss to Seton Hall.  For the two games, he shot 61.1 percent from the field, 57.9 percent from 3-point range and 92.3 percent from the foul line.  He leads the nation in scoring with a 27.6 mark.  In league play this season, Howard has a record eight 30-point games.

Love Markus. The K State and Buffalo games at the FF were insane.  Thank you for those memories.

Looking forward to Sweet 16 run.

Going into tonight's games Markus was tied with Jhivvan Jackson (121) for three point shots made this season and they trailed Kuxhausen (125) by 4 three pointers.

Jackson finished with 12 and made no three pointers in a season ending loss. Jackson was second in scoring average, so Howard should be safe as the season leader.

Kuxhausen was 0-6 from three in a season ending loss. Howard needs four three pointers tomorrow to tie Kuxhuasen for most three point shots made this season.

Markus was second in free throws made trailing Jones of Arkansas by 12. Jones made 10-11 free throws tonight in an Arkansas win, so Markus is unlikely to catch Jones.

Sadly, there is a possibility that Markus has played his last college game. Maybe one more at best.

Let's hope Markus turns some of the energy generated by being named "too far from New York City to be Big East Player of the Year" into a 40 point effort and a blowout victory.

Thank you Markus for playing four great years at Marquette. You gave us your best effort no matter if you were triple teamed. Wish you much success in the future. Please know that you will always be remembered as a great Warrior.
