How soon we forget ners.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

To get this back on topic and away from the existential questions of the day.

Saw in the interview with Shaka. Said O-Max graduated high school a year early. Junior year of HS to the ACC. So...hope everyone is ready to hear about how young he is. But Todd is gonna get a good chance to build him up.

He may be young but judging off of his YouTube highlights from this past season Todd won’t have to do much building.

Fair point! It sounds like Shaka wants to get the kids back up to Buzz boot camp level. Todd is gonna be busy.

Also didn't know where to write this, but he also said that he's super impressed by where Oso is physically right now compared to when he recruited him.

O-Max will be 19 in July, so he's not Markus young.
The shaka sign, sometimes known as "hang loose", is a gesture of friendly intent often associated with Hawaii and surf culture.

He was very careful with his words, and said school, not necessarily Marquette.  Dawson is exploring his options, pro or otherwise.  Good for him.

I am very confident that Garcia will either go pro or be at Marquette next season. I mean never make bets on what college kids will do and all, but as of this moment it would be completely of the blue for Dawson to transfer.

I think we've seen a lot of the "enter name into draft and also enter the transfer portal" combos this year. I would have expected Dawson to do the same if he intended to transfer.

Then why are they waiting to enter the transfer portal? They can't see the writing on the wall? Was practice an audition to see who does not get cut? Or was Shaka toying with all of them? So Oso knows he is not being cut, but Shaka is just holding on to these guys until a Bates or some other player bites? I would already have a position lined up if I knew the boss was looking for a better fit.

At least Symir knew to get out.

Jesus man. Maybe they haven't decided if they want to transfer yet. Maybe they are waiting to see what the roster looks like. Maybe they are still feeling out the staff. Or maybe they just haven't gotten to filling out the paperwork yet.

Also, at least one of them hasn't been to all of the practices.

Maybe you should just realize that you have no idea what the dynamics are behind the scenes and wait to see what happens instead of making dumb observations and asking dumb questions.

It is curious that we are oversigned and nobody is in the transfer portal yet to cover it.  Seems to me if you were getting outSmarted then you would want to get into the portal ASAP.

How will we ever survive a coaching change?

That may be my new favorite Scoop meme...

Welcome to MU Oliver!

“The rebuild will take years”! OK, more like weeks. After 7 years in the desert, we’re a program to be reckoned with again. How fun!

If you want a clean slate, then why drag it out. Just be up front with the kids and tell them its time to move on. Then we can welcome on the new players.

I think we can be sure that Shaka has been open with all of the players. It's why he flew all over the country the week after he was hired to talk to all of the players, in person. Communication is his game.

We were on a self inflicted NCAA probation for seven years and finally free. Only wish we had some NCAA to forfeit for the seven years. Big time excitement around the program.

Ok, let's say Wojo is back at Duke within a few days or weeks.  What are the odds that Garcia heads to Duke?

That would be a big mistake with all those 5 star kids coming in?  His numbers would go down.

Do we have a vert number for O-Max?  I like 6'8 switchables.

Agreed. If you are trying to showcase your talents for the nba, you have to be playing. And the nba really doesn’t care where you’re playing.

O-Max has a great looking skill set- good footwork around the basket, good hands and catches the ball easily, smooth looking shot and a pretty quick release to it, good handle and can attack the rim off the dribble.

Sky looks the limit, may be the gem out of these 5 newcomers the last two days. Very impressed with him.
