Lol no we are not.

Zaide, James, and Stevens should be guys off the bench. Sean (even when healthy) isn't good.

That back court is dire. Even if james is better than we thought he would be. 

James  off the bench? He is a clear starter level guy and not even ten games into his career. What other freshman pgs have we had that have been ahead of him? Markus?

I think that's the issue.  He's been great - for a freshman!  Ideally the team would have an PG with a year or two in the system that exceeds his #s and NJ would come in as a backup for that person.

Ideally a lot would be different right now

Agree!
From an outside conference perspective feel NIL is not helping our conference as much as SEC B10 B12 and even ACC.
From an inside conference and Program perspective. Feel Saint John's is a problem. SJU has become powerful and jumped Marquette. SJU has become better friends with UCONN than Marquette since SJU helps keep the BE Tourney in MSG and keeps other conferences out. SJU has a rich donor for NIL.
From a Marquette Team perspective Marquette is hurting itself with No Transfers and current roster which infusing next year with Tranfers would help.
