On a scale from 1-10, I am a 7-8.   I am not blind to what happened at Texas.  I choose optimism.
lets hope this works out well for both coaches - Shaka gets a fresh start and great success and Wojo goes somewhere and does better than he did here. People can learn and grow and improve (not directed at tower but at all the people saying he couldn't possibly do better than he did at Texas).

Daniel

He has talent.  Dont know what to think exactly.   Will support him all the way fir sure.  We want Marquette basketball back.  Hoping he can do it quickly.

When People compare to Shaka to Wojo there is a contrast........


Shaka Smart has 18 top 100 recruits in the past 6 years

His 3 tourney losses with Texas have been by a combined 8 points

Marquette's 2 tournament losses under Wojo were by a combined 39 points

Do you get extra credit for losing close games in the NCAA repeatedly to overmatched opponents?

Getting blown out repeatedly means you're just not prepared at all.... and aren't able to make adjustments, nor coach decent defense.  Good guard play always ate up MU during Wojo's time here.

no you just don't get extra scorn from getting blown out of the gym every time you play a game with anything at on the line. Wojo wouldn't have been fired if he had brought us a 3 seed and a first round loss this year. This is a clear and unambiguous step up from where we were.

RushmoreAcademy

80% yes but comments don't reflect that. Just because an opinion is loud doesn't mean it's the popular opinion.  Good thing to keep in mind whenever reading scoop.

Badgerhater

I emailed MU this winter about not a dime to MU with Wojo still around.  I made my donation today.

I hope he comes in with the attitude that he wants to prove that he can do better than what he showed at Texas. If he's fired up and determined, then I like this hire.

Looking forward to seeing what he says Monday about his time in Austin.

This... a guy with a chip on his shoulder, coming home, playing in a Big time conference, my thoughts are players that stay or choose to come to Marquette will fall our way, it's an exciting time to be a Warriors fan!

WHO IS DAVID JOPLIN?

4-star recruit from Brookfield that wanted to stay home but never got an offer. Something tells me he's going to get an offer now.

Great for depth and development.  Now, just need some guards.....

If you wanted Wojo gone and expected a better replacement you are delusional.  Most people nationally will see this as a big step down for Shaka.  We just got a power 5 coach from one of the strongest and best funded athletic programs in the country, coming off a conference championship and 3 seed in the NCAA tournament.  He grew up in Wisconsin and is in the prime of his coaching career.  I'm not sure what else you could reasonably hope for.  If you think someone 10 years older with a losing conference record at Loyola is clearly a better option then that's your choice.

Absolutely well said! I don't think Moser would have been a horrible choice by any means, but Shaka has taken a team deep into the tourney and is a proven recruiter. His recent track record at Texas in March may not be all that impressive; however there is a lot more upside when scrutinizing his coaching track record than simply regarding him as a so-so hire. I think he is a better hire than Moser as I am truly pumped up after years of watching Wojo put this program on a treadmill. Let's Go!!!!

What else in his record at Texas - despite his failures in March when it counts - would lead you to believe he will do better in Milwaukee than he did in Austin?

OffTheGlass

Shaka had some top level recruits consistently throughout his tenure at Texas as well as making the tourney 50% of his time as their head coach. More than what we have experienced with Nojo.
He also was a 3 seed this year after winning their conference tournament. You can't simply dismiss his VCU run either.
Wake up..we're not Kentucky, Nova, or even UCLA to some degree. This is a solid hire for this program. Your expectations are unrealistic for anything more than what we have for now. People on this board act like Marquette is a Blue Blood...F*&%, we're not even Wisconsin at this point as this is not 1978!  WAKE UP!

Please. I graduated from MU in 1991 - the class with the worst winning percentage at Marquette since Wold War II. I know for a fact that Marquette is not a blue blood.

For all his top 100 recruits Shaka had a losing overall conference record at Texas. He was under .500 against Top 25 ranked teams. He was 0-3 in NCAA games. The Texas fans disliked him immensely and he was either going to get fired soon or sit on the hottest coaching seat in America next season. Yes, he won the Big 12 conference tournament this year - aided by a forfeit due to COVID-19. His team then got extremely outplayed and out coached by Abilene Christian.

I honestly don't get why the majority on here is excited about this hire. He turned us down 7 years ago. Why the sudden change of heart? Could it be that he under performed big time in Texas and is looking for greener pastures?

I didn't say Marquette is a blue blood but people are acting like we deserve better like one. Who would you have hired Great Oz?
Shaka is a solid recruiter and has a Final Four. He wasn't great at Texas but he does have a respectable track record. Who did you want or expect? Wojo diminished our program's credibility that doesnt help in hiring what really you think is so much better.
