Omax declares

[Spotcheck Billy]

Ben Steele with this today
Marquette's Olivier-Maxence Prosper staying in NBA draft. He could be a first-round pick.
"Thank you Marquette nation, my coaches, my teammates and support staff for embracing me from day one," Prosper said in a statement. "My time at Marquette has been incredible."

Nothing

That’s what I thought

It’s always great to watch an MU player get the opportunity to pursue their dreams in the NBA, even if it doesn’t always pan out as they hope.

If Al could support Jim Chones leaving early for the ABA, MU fans should all support OMax darting for the NBA.

Also, it’s effing insane that we had an NBA first rounder on our roster who went completely unnoticed in the Big East awards because he was overshadowed by this teammates. We’ll be totally fine next season. In Shaka I trust.

I never said anything was funny about it.

The starting lineup last year had elite defensive efficiency last year.

That same lineup but subbing Jop in for OMax (the most likely starting lineup this year) was atrocious defensively last year.

Need to add a defensive wing if we want to compete for a BE title and/or deep March run.

[Jockey]

Congrats to OMax. I don’t think he is ready to contribute yet, but the work ethic is there to succeed.

The key is "last year".

Shaka trusts development. Next man up with the guys they have coming back and Freshman incoming.

Yep - keep it that way

do you know Shaka? Has he told you he ‘trusts development’?
Hoping ‘development’ is enough to beat RED and win a few NCAA tournament games. Omax will be difficult to replace.

Spoken like a true snake.

Lmao. What?

[Hards Alumni]

Yes.  But we still need an immediate counter Lenny to mitigate this loss.  We have a prime-time opportunity this season to inflict damage, a.k.a. making a run to a F4 and our 2nd chip.  We must find a glass cleaner and more importantly a 6'6+ guy that can guard multiple positions and fill this void.  Offensively we're fine but get a high octane guy on the defensive end that can lead us to the promised land.

Check the portal and lemme know, I'll give you Shaka's cell phone number.
