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.

Minnesota up 7 on Indiana with 6 mins to play.  IU with 53 pts.

It's been a rough stretch for Goldy. I'll give them a pass on this one.

Minnesota needed Overtime to beat UWGB a few weeks ago and they beat Indiana by 9? My goodness we suck.

IU also scored 100 vs us but only 64 against Minny?

Glad you cleared that up. I would have never guessed that from our game against Valpo last night.

Just talking through my shock after seeing that score lol

AJ Storr the perfect example of people relate scoring to being a good basketball player.

Storr was never a "great" college basketball player. At his best he was the 4th best player on a wisconsin badgers team.

Credit to Storr for going for the eclectic appetizer sampler platter of college campus experiences via the portal.  East coast urban campus at SJU, big Midwest college town at UW, college town in the middle of nowhere at KU, now the quintessential southern college experience at Ole Miss.  Don't live with regrets AJ!
