Holloway ro-o-o-o-o-o-ad (MU earns a Vacation)

[PointWarrior]

Wojo teams scored like 75/80+ on the regular, they just game up 90.

There is nothing more refreshing in the style of pl BV ay from the one era to the next than
1. how many less layups and dunks this coaches squads give up, and
2. how many more layups and dunks this coaches teams make.

Quite the refreshing change.

Watch it - projos will complain why can't we just enjoy Shaka without mentioning how crapty Wojo was as a coach.

Generally sloppy game. Both defenses (especially ours) forced plenty of TOs, but lots of them were just horrible passes sailing over teammates' heads or dribbling into traffic. We played down to their level for a long, ugly stretch of the second half, but we were already up by 100.

Seton Hall plays a lot of ugly basketball.  They're a terrible offensive team and have to win games with defense and slowing the tempo down.  It's not pleasing to watch but has been what Shaheen Holloway has done as a head coach.  His St. Peter's teams were not good offensively but solid on defense.  They'll be a pain to play as long as he is there because it'll be ugly

[Lennys Tap]

There cannot be anymore projos! This team is just so much fun. Haven't felt like this in a decade.

I don't think there are any true projos left, but there are still some who offer muted support, blame others, say things weren't all that bad, etc. And not everyone is sold on Shaka - Rocky included.

I thought we took the air out of the ball too early (8 min?). Too many TO's and fouls after that. If SHU was playing with the energy they showed vs. UConn it would have been close.

Hard to bitch about a walkover though.

Hard to keep your foot on the gas when you're playing a team like seton hall. So bad offensively and that's not even getting into the live ball turns. Just nothing in the half court. We clowned them today

Personally I think we should cut the Woj guys they're bad for the team.

[willie warrior]

Who on this board has said once, Marquette should have kept Wojo over Shaka?

There were plenty on this board that defended Wojo, made excuses for Wojo, and felt we had no options but Wojo. They know who they are.
But one thing we can be sure of  Shaka has this team on an upward trajectory.

You can thank Wojo for recruiting 3 starters!

You didn't like the guys Shaka was recruiting.  It's almost as sad as not having your Warriors pennant in your living room instead of your basement.

A number of season bests today:

1) Best road win margin
2) Best dunk
3) Best basket after an over-and-back
4) Most turnovers forced
5) Best shot-clock-expiring basket
6) Best Tower recap thread title

What did I miss?

Loved that he worked in an Oak Island reference.

make sure you put that in teal... don't want to get anyone confused.

I loved the moment after the game where Oso was having a talk with Gold. Everyone sees the playing time going down and down for Gold. You know he is hurting. Everyone knows we are going to need quality minutes from him in March. I thought it showed great leadership!

Amen!!

[The Sultan]

I mean, it's true.

[cheebs09]

I'll be in Park City in March.  Maybe I'll stop and see him

Goodness knows he doesn't work too far into March.

[cheebs09]

I mean, it's true.

I think Wojo could see talent. I also think Shaka is great at coaching talent.

Perfect analysis, Wojo would have zero idea how to use Oso. Curious who decided to change the offense, Nevada Smith or Shaka?

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

11. Game thread 100% ignored the troll's one pathetic effort to start some sh*t.

Shaka's current offense was installed at Texas in 2021. That was his highest ranked offense of his Texas tenure, and also the first year Nevada came in. Pretty sure the offense is his, but I also think it's in the way Shaka lets him run it. The recent comments about making sure the guys can have fun and that scoring is fun definitely seems to come from the top.

We owe a lot to Abilene Christian.

That's okay...Texas paid back their coach, Joe Golding. It's my favorite coaching carousel story of 2021.

• Joe Golding and ACU beat Texas, Shaka leaves for Marquette.
  
• Texas hires Chris Beard.
  
• Chris Beard hires UTEP Coach Rodney Terry.
  
• UTEP hires Joe Golding from ACU.

I'm still a bit concerned that we still haven't shown the ability to win a close game.  👀

[Ellenson Guerrero]

My new favorite past time is going over to other Big East teams' message boards after games and read them tear their hair out after we wipe the floor with them. It gives me great pleasure.
