If Jeff Goodman gained one brain cell, it'd be very lonely.

If Jeff Goodman gained one brain cell, it'd be very lonely.

Reminds me of my new favorite insult I heard not long ago:

"I'm not saying Jeff Goodman is the dumbest person in the world, but I am saying that Goodman better hope that the dumbest person in the world doesn't die."

How hard is it for Dauster to know that Oso was a 4 star recruit? I mean he is a pretty bright guy when it comes to college basketball.

If you're going to bring him up to make a point at least have your facts straight.

[JakeBarnes]

They really like Nigel and Sheek. Both seem to be coups in their eyes.

What did he say? I'd have no issue with someone saying he was NOT a 4-star recruit. What does that even mean? I'm sure on some 'services' he was noted as a 4-star guy and on others he was not.. but I think from a RSCI perspective.. there was one outlier (70), one just barely in the top 100, and he was shooting blanks on the rest.

Depends on your definition of 4-star I think.. but again, zero issue with someone saying he was not a 4-star recruit.

He said they turned him from a " zero star recruit into an NBA player"

When an analyst refers to a player as a 3 star, 4 star or 5 star player you know very well that they are referring to the major scouting site evaluations........247 ....which is the site that most of them use for reference had him as a 4 star............

He was basically saying that Oso was a nobody when he was recruited..........which we all know wasn't true.

Pretty sure the crystal ball had him going to Marquette, too.

I also hate the cop out on actually grading our offseason. As though somehow retaining players doesn't matter. I've heard pundits say "they got X, Y, & Z back while also bringing in these guys." The former is usually more important than the latter.

[Shooter McGavin]

They'll respect the Shaka/Marquette way more as the years go by and MU has made the tournament continually and there are a few elite eights and Final Fours sprinkled in.  Until then, expect to be disrespected.
