Keeyan Itejere to Marquette

[Uncle Rico]

Wojo STUNK. Please move past this. He was fired, you lost.

"You lost" 😂

[Silkk the Shaka]

He's the kind of player many here would have gone "eh" at if Wojo had signed him.

But since it's Smart, the reaction is "OMG I can't believe we got him!  He can dunk!"

For me, it's that this kind of guy would have been lost/misused under Wojo. But his skill set seems to be a good fit for a Shaka type team. I very much like that he seems to be starting off the recruiting with "style fit" guys.

He's also the type of player that Shaka seemed to develop well at UT. Excited about his potential and here for some HUGE dunks and blocks this season.

Good coach vs bad coach. Simple concept.  How are you confused?

I was excited when Wojo signed Ike Eke.   Same kind of player.   I hope Keeyan's back holds up and he is able to reach his potential.

[Herman Cain]

Kind of sounds like what we were hoping Ike Eke would end up being prior to the injury. Former soccer player turned basketball player with elite athleticism that just needed more experience playing the game.

Welcome Mr. Itejere, looking forward to seeing you in blue and gold!

I agree with this analysis.

If we played an even fast style back then and if Ike didn't break his back, that's a good basketball player

Sorry, but that was against the rules.

Wojo was not a bad coach....he had some unfortunate 'bail-out' players who left early and would not be coached like he was doing. Lets make that clear...

[4everwarriors]

Wrong, hey?

Well that also falls on the coach. Not sure what you were watching, but yes Wojo was a guy in over his head. Doesn't matter he gone.

You're wrong. Let's make that clear...

I don't see a lot of evidence that Wojo was a good coach.

He's such a good coach that he has schools blowing up his phone to hire him!

[Vander Blue Man Group]

How about we just stop talking about Wojo completely?  He did not succeed.  He's gone.  A lot of exciting stuff to talk about moving forward.

Ha, people still constantly fight over Crean, Buzz, Deane...

I know.  Wojo will continue to haunt this place.

Wave a white flag and be done with it.

Get outta here....that is all you cried about.

You got what you wanted...unreal. He did a great job under the circumstances.

Now I laugh when half the team transfers....AND NOW YOU STILL WONT WIN!!!

Surprised you are able to defend Wojo with all that laughter as the whole team transfers due to the bleak Wojo-less future.

[StillAWarrior]

I'm laughing right now because I was just about to post something very similar about 30 minutes ago -- quoting the exact same post.

But now it looks like maybe a couple more of Wojo's players might transfer...just not for the reason that MUHoopsFan2 thought.

Cord Lipe sucks!

Oh you've made something clear alright 🤣

...even the players that stayed could not be coached like he was doing.

[muwarrior69]

...the only calls he is getting is family/friends asking if they can get a personal loan.
