For anyone curious,  this is what MDSB is referring to.

Lewis retweeted this.  A word of advice,  don't try to interpret vague social media posts retweeted by 18 to 22 year olds. You will get it wrong

What's a thot tamu?

What's a thot tamu?

I actually know that one, lol. Urban dictionary should help you out

[shoothoops]

I would also point out that many times people try to interpret tweets that turn out to be song lyrics. That's a popular one too.

@jakeweingarten: Breaking: Cincinnati freshman Tari Eason will be transferring from the program, he told @Stockrisers. The 6'8 forward appeared in 23 games and averaged 7.5 points and 1.3 blocks per game. Will draw high-major suitors instantly.

[genious expert]

They were and offered per Rivals.

Marquette was in his final 4 teams along with Louisville, VT, and Penn St

[4everwarriors]

@jakeweingarten

Is slated to speak with Frank Martin's staff this evening.

Wojo:

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

602 names in the transfer portal today. That's more names than the entire 2012 offseason...and we have yet to start the NCAA tournament

Almost 2 for every Div 1 school.  MU with 1 so far.  We'll see how the averages go.

Yeah, that's the other dopey Wojo narrative: He loses a ton of transfers.

He actually has lost fewer than the average, if I'm not mistaken. It seems worse because the Hausers were a devastating loss -- Sam, because he could play; Joey, because he had potential; both because of the optics and timing -- but otherwise Marquette hadn't lost an "impact" transfer since Burton left in Wojo's very first year.

I'm guessing MU would lose far more transfers if Wojo goes than if Wojo stays.

Having said that, I'd still show him the door. Can't let the prospect of lost transfers or recruits affect this kind of decision.

[4everwarriors]

You'd still be an illiterate moron.

Heer, dis iz gonna make it ezeer four ewe two understand...k m donkey, hey?

A change in coach could very well lead to a year zero scenario like Penn State.  It would be painful but give the new coach a chance to build something

If you want the actual numbers, Wojo has had 11 transfers in 7 years (1.57 a year). One of those was walk-on Christian Haffner who doesn't really count. But one of them was Sam Hauser who may count for 5.

Personally, I don't get worked up on transfers in general.  It is a way of life in CBBall today.  To me the concern/critique with Wojo is the number of regrettable losses and people quitting the team mid-year.

If there was ever a year for a team to reload quickly and turn things around immediately, this is the year.  We'll see if Wojo can do it.

Wojo has offered all 602.

[tower912]

Like Buzz did during recruiting.

Do it at another school, hey?

Yeah, obviously, quality of player matters a lot more than numbers, and context is important, too.

Hausershima was devastating, not just because Sam is a heck of a college basketball player and Joey might still be good one day, and not just because it helped make last season and this season worse, but because of how it made Wojo and his program look.

But the snarky narrative about Marquette being Lost Transfer U these last 7 years is wrong. Marquette lost some transfers, most of them lower-level players. Other schools lost at least as many, and quality players too.

So many things to rip Wojo for -- with Hausershima being at or near the top of the list -- that it's just piling on to invent stuff. But I know that's how we roll on the interwebs.

[Litehouse]

I suppose you could also say this would be the best possible year for a new coach to come in and hit the ground running the first year if they're able to get some decent transfers with immediate eligibility.

[MarquetteMike1977]

Has anyone mentioned this yet but Wonder if Tyrese Hunter from Racine Saint Catherine's  will transfer from Iowa State with their coaching change.
