Wish him the best.

What a class act! I will miss watching him play at MU.

Thanks, Oso, and best of luck!

[Dr. Blackheart]

Best center since Mac. 

[MuggsyB]

Good luck to Oso.

Awesome!!!  Wish him all the success...truly fun to watch him develop here over the last 4 years.

[AlumKCof93]

Great representative of Marquette.  Best of luck - wish him all the best!

Hope he crushes his workouts and wipes away any concerns from the tourney.  All it takes is one organization to fall in love with his skillset.

I hope he knocks out of the park. Was fun to watch develop as a player and as a leader of men.

[ATL MU Warrior]

Best of luck Oso.  Lots of fun watching you these past few years.

Nothing but respect and appreciation.

Will be very proud to watch Oso rep MU moving forward. Seems like he will have great success in whatever he does.

[Lennys Tap]

Outstanding player and from everything I ever saw an outstanding person. Best of luck  in the NBA and in all other pursuits. Oso will be very much missed.

1 more year would def help him as
I don’t see him being nba ready. I can see why you need to make the move.

Shame he has issues offensively in the tournament, but a fantastic player and human being who I'll always be rooting for. I don't think he'd benefit much from staying at MU for another year. I think he needs to get into an NBA offense and figure out how to exist there. I dont think MU would benefit from him sticking around and heaving midrange jumpers or 3s to try to develop that for the NBA. Do that in the G-league, or figure out a role for an NBA team.

What would one more year in college do for him?  Would Shaka change his offense for him?  He’s going to be 22 in July.  Staying another year to “get NBA ready” makes zero sense

It sounds like he will be a bigger loss off the court than on the court. And he's a really big loss on the court.

Hoping he has a lot of success in the draft process and ends up in a good spot.

Best of luck to him - he’s a class act and great representative for Marquette.  And props to him for sticking around after Shaka was hired and helping to make the program relevant again.

The easy thing for Oso to do after the 2020-21 season would have been to take his talents elsewhere after he barely played as a freshman, but he believed in Shaka and Marquette (and vice versa). That was a big part of our program building a fantastic culture, and he went on to play a major role in two successful, entertaining seasons.

A great young man, one of the most unselfish players I've seen, and a testament to what hard work on the basketball court can accomplish.

One of my all-time Marquette faves. I wish him happiness and good fortune.

Players only develop in college

All the best Oso!  Proud to have had you at Marquette!

Wishing all the best. Great guy. As far as his Marquette legacy, he will be remembered for the most disappointing postseason performance in Marquette history
