What would make you show Shaka the door in March?

The rules in college basketball have changed and Shaka and Marquette have decided they don't like the change and they will continue to do things the old way.
The best comparison I can make is when the NCAA introduced the 3-point shot, and you have a coach who decides his team won't use it.
Why is Marquette giving Every D-1 in the country an advantage over them.
The reality is if we don't use the portal we will never be competitive in the Big East.
Marquette's Holier than thou attitude Must end.

More interest now on what happens in the off season and 26-27 season.

Is this real? Holy fanboy.
My guy, criticism comes with the job. Shaka is enough of a grown ass man to understand that. And when a program is on pace to produce its worst season in nearly 40 years, the coach is going to face heat for that. Shaka also understands that. He's not curling up in bed at night crying about message boards.

There's not one program of Marquette's stature in the country where the coach wouldn't be getting criticized for a season like this. Not one.

Character revealed? Good Lord. Sports fandom is not a test of one's character. It's entertainment. You're not tough and brave for enduring sh*tty basketball.

If Shaka were to rage quit because his feels got hurt by fans not politely applauding a historically bad season, I have little doubt Marquette basketball will have a brighter future than he does.

I think there is a very real possibility MU doesn't have a say in him coming back.

Personally,  I'd welcome him back. I think MU feels the same.

Unless he's picking early retirement, Marquette will have a say. Though dropping the buyout to zero would be a say Marquette could have that wouldn't surprise me.

Could they do that, if they had a prenup?

That's the route I'm expecting, assuming this season continues going in the same direction.  Shaka can go get another job for free, Marquette saves on paying a potential buyout after next year.  Win/win for both parties.

As someone who is still a big fan of Shaka as a person, I'd love to see some more positives out of the young guys the remainder of the year and for Shaka to flip the upperclassmen on the roster through the portal after this season.  It's just hard to see that happening at the moment.

I see you're raising your level of stupidity for Festivus.  Well done, Biff!

First, I have zero inside knowledge. I'm just a fan.

I can't think of another reason for such a shocking decline in the performance of Shaka and the team other than some off the court issue that has derailed this season. If we were looking at a .500 team, I'd come to the conclusion that Shaka's experiment simply failed. Not fun, but move on. But this season is, justifiably, being discussed as one of MU's worst ever and there are no injury issues.

I can't believe Shaka has simply lost all his sense of coaching and talent evaluation, unless there is something going on the we don't know about.

IDK, maybe I'm guilty of being too much of a Shaka fan and can't accept his significant flaws.

Paint touches had an article last year with Kams on off splits.  This year was actually really predictable if we had all paid attention.

We all bought in to Shaka being able create High major NCAA talent out of mid to low major talent over one summer. But there was no indication last year that this team could win without Kam, let alone Stevie and Jop.  I believe we were ranked in the 125 range with the on off splits.  It's bearing out.

Maybe someone on paint touches can post the article again.
