I’ll go OMax for his defense. Incredible.

Kolek and Jop were awesome. Stevie awesome on defense too.

Omax

OMAx stone cold busting Hawkins was huge.

I loveTKo, though.

TSmith34, Inc. · « **Reply #3 on:** March 10, 2023, 07:44:33 PM »

OMax, zero question. Played possessed on both ends. The tape of his defensive effort should go into the MU HoF.

Omax missed that layup that would have put MU up 12, then UConn started the run.
He got over that.

But, Omax for the award. His defense was awesome on Hawkins holding him to 2 for 12 and 1 for 8 from three. Ballgame.

MUCam · « **Reply #6 on:** March 10, 2023, 07:45:06 PM »

Omax.

Unbelievable tonight. Energy, passion, composure, big plays, and defense.

Hawkins was a shadow of himself. Omax was the reason

OMax, and I will never again question OMax or Jop. They won this game for us, and they deserve the support of the entire Marquette Nation!

OMax with honorable mention to Jop.

So many that contributed, but give it to OMax for his D and other help.

I also should’ve shouted out Kam. Handled the offense when Kolek was out most of the way. He was great too. Got to the rim a few times and it opened up some other things for him.

I am a recovering “hater” I’ll be honest, but the effort today has absolutely earned massive respect. They will have more clunkers and will get substantially better, but I will never again question their effort.

OMax for making Hawkins look less than ordinary.

WarriorHal · « **Reply #21 on:** March 10, 2023, 07:58:28 PM »

Lots of big contributors but O-Max and his D job on Hawkins edging out Joplin and his threes.

mileskishnish72 · « **Reply #22 on:** March 10, 2023, 08:01:46 PM »

My first thought was to give it to the bench - sort of like a field bet.

Chase, Jop, Sean, and Ben all had their moments, when they had to play more minutes than might have been expected. Then I realized you have to pick one guy. I thought Jop.

Then I thought about D. Not Jop.

OMax was our standout tonight. And good for him.

Jop had to guard the 5 lots of minutes and had some good offense going when needed. But I need Rico for doing a celebration bowl.

Kam-
-most minutes.. stayed on floor
-timely buckets
-handled the point and ran the team a lot when TKO and Oso sat.
-defended the last shot w/o fouling
-nice boxscore
-tried to pick a fight with UConn’s bench

he was relied on heavily in this one.

NCMUFan · « **Reply #34 on:** March 10, 2023, 08:35:17 PM »

Well, their bench tried to pick one with him, but he somehow kept his cool. He should probably get SOTG just for that. Not sure why this wasn’t looked at. What a bunch of punks.

MVP = team… which is what it takes to win championships!.

Didn’t have that stalled offense when Kolek was out. I saw confidence in Kam Jones.

OMax defense. Dude is our next Jimmy Butler by 2023-24.

Kolek is All American

We have a real Coach. Pray he stays for a long career

Class71 · « **Reply #39 on:** March 10, 2023, 08:56:13 PM »

For us to win the Team had to play their best. They all had great games, including the bench. Each player had a role and they accomplished the nearly impossible. The bench keep us in the game against a top team in the country.

They are all SOTG's today! This team is making history. Enjoy it.

That was Sanogo. And Stu Jackson's finest were out of position (again) and not even looking. That missed out of bounds call (jump ball) with both refs out of position was embarrassing.

Sanogo is a thug in these games and the refs allow it.

I'm also on the O-Max bandwagon for this one. Awesome D, huge 3 with about 3:30 to go, incredible tip-in between the trees when we needed it.

I wouldn't object to any of the other candidates, either, but that was truly amazing D by him all night.

The honest answer is probably Kolek, that's how studly his first half was. But he wasn't in down the stretch and Omax neutralized Hawkins all game. So I'll vote OMax

I would say this is true, but you expect a certain production out of Kolek.
Joplin exceeded what we would expect out of him and that is why we won.

So O-Max and Jop played at a higher level relative to their “usual” than Kolek so they should be SOTG? Why should TK be punished because his “usual” is way better than the rest of our players?

That’s just dumb.
