There might be 8,000 Marquette fans at the DePaul game this year. Will be an embarrassing look for them.

There might be 8,000 Marquette fans at the DePaul game this year. Will be an embarrassing look for them.

DePaul announced before the game that they were giving hats away to all fans "while supplies last".

There may be some left to give away when Marquette plays them on January 24.

Serious question - is there a process to kick a conference member out? At this rate DePaul is going to represent a potential Q4 road loss om the BE schedule.

I was thinking Ethan Wragge , Toby Hegner and Martin Krampelj in particular . I just checked and Wragge was listed at 6-7  and Krampelj was 6-9 both seemed to play bigger . Modification noted on original post

Also: Kenny Lawson, Will Artino, Justin Patton, Manny Suarez, Jacob Epperson, Sam Froling, and Ryan Kalkbrenner.

Also: Kenny Lawson, Will Artino, Justin Patton, Manny Suarez, Jacob Epperson, Sam Froling, and Ryan Kalkbrenner.

I don't think you understood the criteria

Lawson was 6'9"
Artino had 0 career 3PM
Patton had 8 career 3PM
Suarez had 5 3PM as a Bluejay
Epperson had 7 career 3PM
Kalkbrenner has 9 career 3PM so far

None of these guys were 6'10" and sharpshooters from three.

7,621, but that's just 37 percent capacity. Last year's second home game drew 4,583.

BTW, DePaul could have really used a timeout down the stretch. By the looks of it on FS2, official attendance at Wintrust was in the three digits again.

I saw the student section shots from Bobby Bancroft and it looked like a good turnout. Clearly Ed doesn't have it where he wants it, but he does seem to be injecting some energy back into the fanbase. Ultimately he'll have to win games to keep and grow what he has, but it's a step in the right direction.

I think in the mid-1990s when DePaul chitcanned Joey Meyer after a good but not spectacular career there, the Meyer family put a hex on the program and all succeeding coaches.

Kind of like the dude from The Billy Goat who put a 70 year whammy on the Cubs because his goat couldn't get into Wrigley for the '45 World Series.

So what you're saying is DePaul need to play Cleveland in the World Series to break the curse?

Maybe they should schedule CSU and see if that does the trick. I'm sure CSU would gladly accept their money, travel to Chicago, and leave town with a W.

DePaul Marketing Strategies outlined in this article. Apparently fans from other programs ( wondering if that was MU)commented on the details and the article was corrected at the end lol

Classic "lipstick on a pig".

Looking to start 0 - 3 ... Duh Paul hosts
S. Dakota on Tues.  What do we think the attendance will be ?  500 ?

[Dawson Rental]

DePaul paid for this. I mean, this is some masochistic s*** to give someone money to come into your house and do this to you.

You're totally missing the point.  It's not about winning or losing, it's about losing the RIGHT way.

How has DePaul been so bad for so long? I almost want them to be good for another good Milwaukee/Chicago rivalry. How have they continuously flopped on their coaching hires?

Crusaders rule! Cooley loses to a Patriot league team.

I think they hire guys on the wrong side of 50. Wainwright, Purnell, Leitao were all mid to late 50s, Stubblefield was over 50. Coaches can still be effective then, but by and large if you haven't broken through big by then you probably won't. And I think most of those guys knew that was going to be their last prominent stop.

DePaul needs their own Crean. A young, motivated program builder. Still can't believe they turned down Scheyer. Not sure he'd have had similar success there, but that's the kind of hire they need.

The more success Scheyer had, the quicker he would have left.  A Kevin Willard would do nicely.  A Sweet 12 year run before moving on.  Where was Willard from? Iona?  Why didn't DePaul just go after Iona's coach?

Can't worry about if a guy might leave after 4 or 6 or 8 years. Get a good coach in, let him stop the bleeding, and go from there.

Think about MU's most important (and most successful) coaches post-Al and pre-Shaka -- K.O., Crean, Buzz. The reason they were able to leave after X years was because they were successful. If K.O. had flamed out, nobody would have wanted to steal him from us.

I agree DePaul needs the next K.O. or Crean type.

remember those DePaul teams with players such as Strickland, Aguirre, Cummings? Ray Meyer for sure, but Joey Meyer too had some teams! A good DeP team combined with the Chicago market makes the BE better!

The previous athletic director was AD at DePaul for 18 years and apparently ran the department like a family business (including hiring relatives as coaches) which may have steered better coaching candidates elsewhere. Over and above personalities, DePaul has seemingly lost a relationship with the Chicago Public League that brought so many players to DePaul in the Meyer years.

It's better for the big east but a good DePaul does nothing good for MU. Would rather have them be a bottom feeder though would at least like them as Q3 game. Even just playing them hurts the resume.

Idk. They've been so bad for so long that I don't think it matters anymore. Unless that success is sustained, it wouldn't be viewed any different than Loyola's run a couple years ago.

[PointWarrior]

Careful. You are going wake all the sleeping scoopers who are going to come out and call DePaul a sleeping giant.

CPS doesn't corner the market on top Chicago players much anymore. Players end up at a catholic school like Fenwick or move to the suburbs for "safety" (proviso east), or they head to a prep school. Gone are the days of King or Simeon running out 8 players with D1 offers.
