Recalibrate your expectations

[5DollarPitcher]

Every thread is a Nojo Glory Hole thread to you, nu?

I hope you found a puppy to hug so you're not scarred for life from the worst college experience ever, twinkles.

Ignorant as usual, “twinkles”. You should get the quote right, “twinkles”. Go find the Hauser thread, “twinkles”.

He singlehandedly ruined the basketball product for the duration of my college attendance.  I doubt most of you can say the same.

A weekend with no MU game, who would have guessed that every thread would divulge into exactly the same conversation?  I'm gonna guess that the Monday morning bump of the "What are we ranked" thread will be the next time anything remotely relevant to this season is posted.

Ruined is hyperbolic but I would be pretty disappointed as a life long Marquette fan if my four years in college were down seasons with Wojo.

Mine were Dukiet and early O’Neill. A couple fun things my senior year but a lot of bad. Way worse than Wojo.

But it in no way ruined my college experience.

Oh ... adding value is what you care about most with your Scoop experience. OK then ... Wojo sucks!

There. Value added!

Who said it did? Astounding lack of reading comprehension from presumed Marquette grads.

No one. My statement wasn’t attributed to anyone.

Talk about lack of comprehension.

Well 7… nobody can say for sure what would’ve happened in 2020 so Final Four should be the baseline assumption.

When does the committee release the top 16? I think once we see that we can recalibrate our expectations.

2 weeks from today I believe.

[DoctorV]

So if it’s 2 weeks from today (I’m not sure when it is) does a 2-1 record in the next 3 games @UConn, @Butler, v GTown put Marquette in that top 16?

I'm not brew but I think it will be close.

I personally said before Providence that I thought 4-1 would do it when someone(not Brew) figured 3-2 would be enough.

Its tough to know because most likely 2-1 scenario is a loss at Uconn and winning the other 2. The Uconn loss isnt gonna hurt ya much. But the other two also dont help.

Whoa. This thread turned into a circle jerk of people hating people who didn’t think MU would be ranked #1 in the country.

Can’t we all just say “wow I was right” or “wow I was wrong” dumb thread. Dumb people.

There are 2 brief Marquette mentions.

Fast forward to 1:12:20 and 1:31:20.

I think everyone on here will enjoy!

Gotta say, if we win it all this year I think we might as hang the banner, close up the Al, and turn off the lights because there won't even be a better season. Become a soccer school or something.

Incidentally, Paddypower currently giving MU better odds on the FF (18/1) than winning the Big East Title (20/1).

Depends, but it's a decent shot. Close loss to UConn and handle Butler and Georgetown? Probably top-16. The thing with the reveal is it typically mirrors the top-16 of the NCAA metric, with 2-4 differences. It was two each of the first two years of the NET with 4 outliers last year, I suspect largely because the minimized non-con schedules had teams like Colgate and Loyola in the top-16.

Currently we're 15, I'd like to see that closer to 20 to have real confidence. I feel good about us being ahead of 15-LSU and 16-Texas, maybe 13-Tennessee too, but that's a longer discussion. But if those last two aren't in, it creates a fight between 18-Ohio State, 19-Michigan State, 21-Wisconsin, 23-Alabama, 25-Marquette, and 29-Providence. I don't think at this moment anyone else is in the mix, but a lot can change in 2 weeks.

Gun to my head today, I think we're a 5. Win our next three, likely a 4, but 2-1 would be very questionable and depend a lot on the margins.

Yes but you went during the block party / homecoming era. IMO, MU’s greatest era. Truly the only time where Hoops didn’t matter
