So when Jalen Terry was throwing games he was still better than Tre Norman, Sean Jones, Damarius owens, and Caedin Hamilton.

Marquette was 6-0 against DePaul when Jalen Terry was there. Most games weren't close.

This may be a way to salvage what is left of this memorable season. Rather than letting Las Vegas pay teams to throw a game, how about if Marquette pays some of our opponents to lose? It would be wise to keep it to teams that are better than us, but not by much. I mean....if we beat St. Johns and UCONN, we are almost begging for an investigation. Sweep DePaul, Butler, and win the rematches with GT and X and we would have 7 Ws in BE play.

Those are just teams impacted, not teams that did the deed.  Depaul's point shaving impacted the other Big East schools... at least it was the bottom feeders.

Yes, we are all aware MU is a bad defensive team.

Indiana Iowa both could not make anything but now each have made their last 7 shots. From cold to hot.

I'm not sure Hubert Davis is back at UNC.

Here's a guy who sounds defeated (from The Athletic):

Arizona State coach Bobby Hurley on Wednesday night sounded like a coach who knows his time in the desert is coming to an end.

After a promising start to the season, the Sun Devils lost for the seventh time in eight games, falling to West Virginia 75-63 at Desert Financial Arena. Arizona State is 10-9 and 1-5 in the Big 12.

"We failed. I'm failing. I can't get through to the team,'' Hurley told reporters after listing some of Arizona State's mistakes against West Virginia. "I don't know what else I can say."

In the final year of his contract, Hurley's future at Arizona State has been in question for a while. In his 11th season, his 178 wins rank second in school history, but the Sun Devils have recently stalled. ... The Sun Devils have struggled particularly at home. Wednesday's loss dropped them to 5-4 at Desert Financial Arena, a facility that is years past its prime.

"We have not played well here — in years," Hurley said. "Like since before COVID. We had this place cooking before COVID. Now it's a sterile environment. We don't win here. We don't give our fans any reason to show up with enthusiasm to think that we're going to win a basketball game. We have been dreadful at home for years. ... Bottom line."

Maybe his kid brother will hire him as an assistant.
