I think Joplin is a very good player when his three is going in. I did not see anything last year that tells me he should be on the floor when his shot is not falling. That was last year, this year remains to be seen.

Wasn’t quite 35%, but wouldn’t call that horrific

Truth be told, Kolek shot 43.9% eFG% in the last 9 games compared to 38.9% in all games prior to the last nine

Needs to be up from when he was at his best.

Shaka said Marquette played without one of it's best players against Loyola due to a hard fall very early in the scrimmage.

If the info about Marquette cruising to a victory is true, they cruised to victory without one of it's best players. That's great to hear.

Hey, one more time for the record.  Did we beat the TBT team in a scrimmage this summer or at least play very well against them unlike some previous years?  I thought I remember someone posting that although I could have been drinking bourbon that day.  Just curious and thanks in advance.

Yes they did beat them this year and it was by a comfortable margin. Some caveats, I believe the TBT team was missing several players including Jamil, Diener, Acker, and DJO. One of Wojo's teams (I think Howard's senior year) also beat the TBT team and still underperformed, and this year's TBT team had gotten old.

MU blew them out, by 20 at least

I heard this about Loyola not the TBT team though it was a comfortable margin.

I do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.

Hard not to watch Shaka's press conferences and not feel GREAT about his vision, knowledge, insight and realize he has "it" and the intangibles necessary to be a really good head coach.  I suspect we will see far less transferring out of MU than we've seen in the past under Wojo/Buzz/Crean, even though it has never been easier for a college basketball player to transfer.

This team is going to surprise to the upside.  Can't wait for the season to kick off and see just how tenacious we are defensively.  My feeling is that we will be so disruptive that our rebounding weakness will be mitigated by creating a lot of extra possessions through turnovers which of course limits the opposition's shot attempts and thus exposing us to fewer possessions to close out with a rebound.

Agree about the transfers.

As for the D, that would be Shaka's brand. Would love to see it this season.

I think we will see really good defense this year...perhaps finishing in the 20-30 range in KenPom...just based off of how Shaka's teams have performed historically.  Year 2 in the system for most of our guys and I tend to think Wrightsill and Stevie are better defenders than Justin and Darryl, respectively.  TBD.

I'd love for Stevie to be a better defender than someone who won a high major conference's Defensive Player of the Year award.

Shaka asked that fans not be too quick to judge any player.

He must be new around here!

Yea..Morsell came in with that accolade from the Big 10, yet in my view I didn't feel his defense last year was much better than Stevie's.  Seemed that Stevie made his presence felt defensively almost every time he played.

It’s a lot easier to be effective defensively when you’re asked to do nothing at all offensively and asked to play 10 mpg vs. be option number 2 offensively and sometimes totally carry the load and play 30 minutes per game.

Dr. B

I agree on Joplin and Sean Jones. Over the past two months I have had a number of guys that are basketball guys touting both Sean and Joplin to me numerous times. I love Sean, but beginning to believe that Joplin is going to be the real deal.
Yup.  …in HS in Brookfield, WI, Joplin easily held his own against Patrick Baldwin Jr. In fact, maybe better. Baldwin is now a rook w/GS. I’m thinking Joplin will be very good this season.
Moron? Maybe. Dork? Possibly. Lost? Definitely.

Must have been Baldwin JR Year. Baldwin hasn't been healthy since like 2019. Plus i think BC had like 3-4 low D1 guys on it. Baldwins HS teams were full of guys who really couldnt play.

Yeah..I don't disagree with you on this point.  However, I feel Stevie can take another step up/take on more minutes and still be a very good/disruptive defender in Year 2 - to where the fall off from Morsell won't be much.

Morsell was the 4th or 5th scoring option at Maryland.

Aware. He also played 30 minutes per game compared to Stevie playing 10 minutes per game. You can play max effort if you’re playing 2 minute spurts. Harder to do if you’re in almost the entire game.
