Shaka to Marquette?

[ChitownSpaceForRent]

Checking out the Texas board, they are calling for his head. He was on the chopping block at the end of last season, but the buyout was too big...and COVID year.

I think the situation there is much like at MU. Really too much animosity at this point to do anything else but fire him. The fact that it was an NCAA tournament birth may be the only thing that saves him. But the fans/boosters don't seem to care about a birth, they want wins.

If Texas boosters want him gone, he'll be gone. There is no shortage of money in that athletic department.

[GooooMarquette]

I'll continue to wait for a better name then.

Condescending.  They all have done as much as Shaka has done at Texas, with far fewer resources. Try to convince me otherwise, despite what the numbers show

[NickelDimer]

Not that he has been in many coaches offices. He just by chance was in those 2 offices.

I saw the opposite when I was in their offices.

This board is hilarious. 12 hours ago it was "Shaka would never come to Marquette, you're crazy" to the ultimate recency bias of "I'd never want Shaka here".

You guys are something else, Jesus.

Well, none of us dreamed he could possibly lose to a D2 team.

I admit there's emotion flowing right now. I also admit that if Marquette swallowed its pride and hired Shaka, I'd support him. I mean, for 6 years I supported the last coach who couldn't win an NCAA tournament game.

But all folks have talked about is how lame Wojo is cuz he can't win in the NCAA tournament. I didn't see Ja Morant on that Abilene Christian roster.

Hound said it best -- have some respect. In addition to being a loser, he totally stiffed us once.

Please grace us and explain what the Philistines here are too dense to grasp.

I already did pal.

[Pakuni]

I'll continue to wait for a better name then.

Better than Shaka?
Does such a name exist?

[Pakuni]

I already did pal.

Where, buddy?

[geps]

I'll continue to wait for a better name then.

Which I'm not sure exists.

SHAKA 7-8 in NCAA tournament games overall

Condescending POS. They all have done as much as Shaka has done at Texas, with far fewer resources. Try to convince me otherwise, despite what the numbers show

I think this is the first time I ever reported someone to the mods, congrats.

[MarquetteMike1977]

Doubt it will be Shaka but if he comes I bet David Joplin follows him.

Please enlighten us.

Bennet won a NCAA Championship, Shaka won an NIT

He also took VCU to a Final Four.

[Heisenberg]

UT had 23 turnovers tonight.

Shaka would fit in perfectly here.

Dawg. You reported him for that?

Haha sheesh. Is this a thin skinned Wojo account?

[Smokin' Jae]

I would take him. Think he would do well again at a basketball only school. Dynamic guy that can recruit like hell, has had some success but also has been humbled. Sign me up.

[Dish]

Where, buddy?

Who's better than Shaka that would realistically come to Marquette? You're great at questions, let's hear some answers.

You asked for better names and I gave you three. Instead of responding with substance, you simply acted like I never replied.

So instead of providing a response of  some substance – any substance – you whine to the mods. 😭

That really is the exclamation point on the whole thing. We'd look like DePaul re-hiring Leitao. Blecccchhhh

I mean calling someone a condescending POS, is whining? Cool dude.

[GooooMarquette]

Gates, Smith, Moser.

But yeah; just keep ignoring them.

I did not whine to the mods. And when you asked a question, I gave you an answer. You refuse to do so.

Rick Barnes made the tournament a lot too.  Shaka is probably toast.

[NickelDimer]

Buzz to UT?

[CountryRoads]

Shaka actually becomes a lot more attractive to MU if he gets canned. Wonder if Texas can lower the buyout.
