Tamar Bates to IU

[MarquetteMike1977]

Ugh I should have mentioned him by his first name on here first. That said his loss. More Players out there and we have plenty of players already let's roll.

[Goose]

Very disappointing. I definitely had him included in my high hopes for next season.

I still have a feeling that we will be fine, Goose. Pure conjecture at this point, though.

[NolongerWarriors]

Would've been a great get.  But Shaka has a lot of young guards coming in.

I think Shaka knew where Bates was leaning and took the guards he could get.

The guards he could get weren't even in the talent ballpark of Bates

"He could get"...you realize he locked up Bates in the first place?  But that doesn't fit the narrative.  You and Bilsu can go whine together elsewhere

 Could it be that we already had a Bates in DJ Carton and that Bates knew it.

Yeah, it would be nice to have five burger boys but let's begin with getting 12 members of a Marquette basketball team working and playing together. Getting players who complement each other is something Wojo couldn't or wouldn't do.

Again, good luck to Mr. Bates. We will see you down the road when we inflict an NCAA loss on Indiana.

Judging by Bates' decision, it seems he wanted to be at a bigger school.

I think there is truth to this statement

To the surprise of no one, you bounce back in a Tamar Bates thread trashing Shaka for not getting a guy a second time around.  Must be exhausting.
We'll be fine.

Bates won't be starting for MU next year, then I guess.

No, but he could start for MU in 2022 after his transfers from IU.  Smart of Smart to stash him there for a year to prepare for greatness at MU.

The University of Indiana: the Riverside CC of 2021!

Bates will be better than Carson.

Only thing Carson does better is leaping ability.

And Bates can actually dribble the basketball competently.

So you don't know the name of our best player?

Field's Steakhouse? O'Tule's Irish Pub?

So important a point you screwed it up twice. Nice!

[TSmith34, Inc.]

Carson Edwards?  Carson Steakhouse?

Johnny Carson, duh.

[rocky_warrior]

I'm great if Carton is our best player, but he'll have to improve significantly over last year to get there.  He certainly has the athletic ability.

[Pakuni]

Johnny Carson, duh.

Carson Kressley. Straight up baller.

Wojo's gone and he's not coming back, Chico.  This is the way things are now.  If you don't like it, root for another team.

[Hards Alumni]

Stop guys, he's already dead.
