Markus's jersey should've been raised right out of the frame and up into the rafters during his senior day.

I see Markus the way I do Pete Maravich. I saw Maravich quite a bit as a boy. He was truly a remarkable basketball player.

Brother dgies,

Markus Howard was an elite shooter. I’ve never seen a PG in college who was his equal as a shooter. But as a ball handler and a passer he was below average. On defense he was a liability.

Maravich was a notch below Markus as a shooter but a more complete all around scorer. Andhe was an elite ball handler and passer. He didn’t play a lot of defense but comparing the two is an injustice to Pistol Pete.

Ncaa tournament, we’re supposed to be rooting for Ucon because of the share payout. What does a Ucon win mean to Marquette in terms of cash? I get the big East prestige etc

For whatever reason, semifinals and finals don’t count for NCAA credits. The BigEast has already earned all they are going to for this tournament.

Brother TAMU:

I did. And I cheered hard for Markus when he was with us. Nobody this side of maybe Coach Wojo and Markus himself wanted Markus to succeed more than I did. Because I wanted us to win, early and often!!!!

I see Markus the way I do Pete Maravich. I saw Maravich quite a bit as a boy. He was truly a remarkable basketball player. But none of his LSU teams were any good and the one that made post-season, 1969-1970, ran into a lawnmower named Al McGuire and the Marquette Warriors. The failing Maravich had was that Daddy, like Wojo, thought one person could carry a team. In LSU's case, there wasn't enough talent around this remarkable talent to make LSU truly special.

Marquette may have been worse yet because Markus had talent around him but the coaching was even worse than LSU!


You did not just compare Markus to pistol Pete. Peak scoop.

SDSU is just a Big Ten team with more length.  They are built to dominate physically inside and play with a lead.  Their offense is deplorable. 

For all the talk of FAU’s fortune with seeds, SDSU played one really good game against Bama, otherwise a 5 seed had an average opponent seed of 10 all the way to the final.  Even with Bama, it’s an average of over 8 across 5 damn games.  Perfect for a good but not great team with plenty of flaws to sneak through.

This game isn't over.  It could have been over but UCONN fked up to close the half.

Think UConn can wear SDS out in second half, though ads has come back from 14 before, so not over.
