Keeyan Itejere to Marquette

[Golden Avalanche]

Tony, I have no idea why he may not like the Shaka hire, but I can tell you why I don't like it.  I was super excited and hopeful when MU offered Shaka the first time.  Then he accepted and I thought we were on our way..., until he backed out because his wife doesn't like Milwaukee. 
This time, I felt we were chasing a 'lover who had spurned us'. Always a bad idea.  Now, everytime I hear a rumor that his wife (same wife) doesn't like the culture or shopping or whatever, I get nervous.  I wish I could share the joy of the "20 year coach" group, but I just don't think so.

What in the actual fu€k does this even mean?

It's going to depend on if Shaka can coach.  Wojo didn't have any issues in bringing in talent.  We had a lot of top 100 talent coming here.  He couldn't coach them.

I wanted a coach that could teach players to play solid team basketball. That is why I wanted Moser.
Shaka's team losing to Abilene Texas, because they turned the ball over 20+ times does not give me confidence in Shaka teaching solid team basketball. Shaka is Wojo with a better personality.

I think it means he doesn't realize that people shop for everything online nowadays.

Good lord. Go root for OU then.  Dude has hit the ground running and had an amazing first month as coach and people are already complaining.  Whining that he's not Norman Dale cause they had a bad game

Shaka has 7 NCAA Tournament wins.  I have no idea what comparison you are trying to make.

Zero games played at Marquette and you're already complaining they aren't playing like a team. Quit being so damn petulant.

[PointWarrior]

Wow, Shaka already has pissed in your Cheerios without even coaching a game for Marquette. Go root for OK - really.   Or Bucky or any other fundamentally sound team you think had a better coach than Shaka.

I wanted Moser very badly too. But check out DeAndre Haynes's history with high major PGs. It was a great hire that will hopefully turn a recent weakness of Shaka's into a strength. I would be somewhat surprised if DJ doesn't have a much more refined game and a major breakout this year.

5 weeks to judge?

I'm very excited about what DJ Carton could be with DeAndre Haynes in the fold. His work with Zavier Simpson and Anthony Cowan, among other guards, is encouraging. Carton might be the best athlete he's had to work with.
