I am assuming along the lines of Shaka's career arc being reborn at MU.

He's indicating that Shaka's career was dead at Texas and he's rising from the dead at Marquette, I assume. The Catholic school angle may be part of it too. I think it's a pretty bad one, even by Rothstein standards.

He's a good writer but tries way, way too hard on Twitter. Last night he got called out as he said Buffalo beat North Texas in a buy game ("the epitome of brutality") when that was actually a home-and-home deal between the schools. That and things like "more dialed in than an accountant in April" and College Park being "the spring break capital" are shtick.

Yes. But, as mentioned above, Rothstein is an idiot.

It would be wise of you all to view Rothstein as an ally. Like him or not, he has a decent following and him mentioning Marquette is good for our brand.

He’s basically just a die hard fan message board poster type who ended up as a CBB desk host.

If you’re looking for any sort of expert advice, he’s absolutely not your guy. He’s just a huge college basketball fan.

I honestly think Rothstein is a fan of Jon Rothstein, CBB personality first, actual CBB second.  Dude loves to hear himself talk and repeat his own corny catch phrases.

His following is no more significant than anyone else.  He's not swinging recruiting battles.  Marquette is in a top conference, with a big name coach who is known across the country, they aren't a plucky upstart who needs a media mention.  They just need to win.
