MU/Purdue Game Thread

winning is what matters. Gets eyeballs, butts in seats, all of it. No different in this new NIL era. Shaka's seat is getting warmer every week.

The announcers are blasting us for not using portal.    We will see what Shaka does next.  This group is not a group that will do well and next year - who knows.  A couple of key portal picks would help.

Texas was grateful for Marquette to take him off their hands.

Shaka was grateful he found soft landing.  He was getting fired soon and he knew it.

It's been brought up by announcers/analysts numerous times, almost every game.  Its the "talking point" MU basketball is noted for now, not their actual play.

RGV baby. Sell that Swag.

[MuggsyB]

Lol.  A goaltend 3 from Chase.

Agree! And will say it again since this is painful to watch ugh! According to Shaka it Seems this year Fans do not matter and wins matter but not as much as relationships among his team unfortunately

Nearly 15% of our points have come from goaltends

Shaka is still a very good coach. Half of the job is getting good players. Just completely unacceptable at a program like Marquette

We may not be using the portal, but we are using the potty, because the team stinks.

I have to believe morale is really low on this team right now. Can't imagine sitting on the bench and watching this awful performance game after game much less the frustration of playing with such underperformers

[MuggsyB]

Here is my opinion on our high hedge:


Take an 🪓 to it. 

[21Jumpstreet]

Hate to say it, but I think we lose to Purdue's second team.

We're a national joke never using the portal. Hope everyone here who told us to trust Shaka are happy. 

[CountryRoads]

Can we please see some of the other players?

[MarquetteMike1977]

James got fouled 2 times no call

[GoldenWarrior11]

I never want to see Gold high hedge again.

[Viper]

Losing is frustrating enough...but against any team that's good we get crushed! This is crazy!

[MuggsyB]

DO is on the floor.

Get Lost in the Net.

[ATL MU Warrior]

Someone needs to lay TKR out

oh boy...you know who that crew is!!

[Pakuni]

As bad as the past two Saturdays have been, we may (hopefully) look back as these games as those that dragged Shaka -perhaps kicked and screaming - into the modern world of college hoops.

Fans don't matter.  My seat prices last year were jacked up significantly to watch this bullcrap.

[Duane6]

Marquette is incredibly easy to defend against. You can just put whoever is guarding jones or Hamilton in the paint

Shaka was grateful he found soft landing.  He was getting fired soon and he knew it.

Texas didn't have to pay buyout, grateful to see him go bc he underperformed
