I don't know if it is defensible.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I'm most excited to see the development of our Frosh and do think Jop is more than capable of stepping it up.  Let's also not forget the potential for Leviathan seasons for Oso, Kam, and Tyko.  I think this team will be just fine and highly, highly, motivated.

I’m afraid Marquette will be in a lot of trap games now

That’s my biggest fear as well Rico.;)

Omax going pro is a very good thing for MU Program. We have depth who will get more opportunities. Signals to recruits they are in a good place with their basketball career if they choose MU.

Also can't look at O Max leaving in a vacuum, there are going to be approximately 60-70 ( depending on how many foreign are drafted) players  leaving other college programs.

To be, or not to be. That is the question.

Oddly enough, during a fair amount of Al's career Freshmen were not eligible to play. I think that came into effect in 1972.

Tatum was the first player eligible to play as a freshman.
Al originally said the best thing about sophomores was they became juniors. Changed when freshmen became eligible.

Shaka is looking for the right replacement.  It's a loss but we will be fine and may get a hammer addition.
He is? Where? From his current roster? Yes.
