Thank God MU pulled the trigger or cut bait, at least two years too late, on Wojo. But we have the right guy now and do not need a 7 year probationary period to figure that out. Wojos tenure was a train wreck, and Hausergate proved that out.

Joe Lunardi ESPN had Marquette as the Top 4 Seed in his S Curve before Mondays games.

Nice. And that was before Iowa State crapped the bed against a team that was 0-8 in the conference.

So you think he should have been fired in 2019 after an NCAA appearance with everyone coming back the next year? Or in 2020 after what would have been an NCAA appearance and a McD All American coming in the next season?

Has anyone done bracketology for wojos teams? I'd be curious which comes out on top. Also at least it pertains to the thread subject

His latest iteration has Marquette as a 3 seed in the West bracket.

Don’t love the second round match up against Rutgers is that was our actual draw.

Isn't it funny that the people typically crying about the NET are the fans of teams that really aren't that good.

Clemson fans realizing they are a bubble team have resorted to crying about the NET.

How about don't lose 3 Q4 games?

Exactly, didn’t they lose to BC tonight?  They can’t be that good.  The ACC is terrible this year.  7-8 teams may get in but will all lose by the second round.

We're still the 3rd 4 seed on the BracketMatrix, but things have tightened up in the past few days. There used to a gap between us and the 2nd 4 seed but now we're right behind them and the top 4 seed. The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th 3 seeds aren't that far either.

Further, every bracket that's been updated since Saturday has us as a 3 or a 4 seed whereas 2 of the 13 brackets that are still on there that haven't been updated since Saturday have us as a 5 seed and the rest as 4 seeds. My guess is that we will move up once those brackets update or are taken off for being too old.

Things I didn't expect to say at the beginning of the season. Radford at home? Q3 win. Georgia Tech on a neutral court? Q4 win

That Mississippi State loss was big to our resume. We end up with a Q2 loss and Q4 win instead of a Q2 loss and Q1 opportunity. Win that and Utah and we'd be a 2-seed right now.

Game by game gang. Game by game.

It’s nice to see the recognition but I’m less concerned about what some expert sees as a hypothetical seeding more than a month away than I am of Villanova and Butler.

A day at a time. Let’s kick some Wildcat backside tonight!

Luckily we aren’t taking the court tonight. So we can have fun speculating about our seed in the tournament.
