Zaide Didn’t Travel With Team

[MurphysTillClose]

VBMG and the Marquette twitter account seem to be editing quite a bit of their recent work...

Very suspicious similarities

Yeah...the slurping is odd.

[onepost]

What makes me say that? The last 40-50 years of Marquette history.

I don't think any coach will see the job Shaka is doing here right now, take said job following a separation, and think Shaka's departure has any relevance to his own time at MU. That it makes that coach any less likely to work out long-term. Just my opinion.

Buddy you ever check out the Twitter account of the president of the United States of America?

Yup. I think he says a lot of crazy things.  But I dont believe he responds to unverified or random folks on the app (or at least not this term).

Right. Saying the university is handling this properly is definitely slurping.

You're dumb.

I didn't say a single thing you just mentioned.

Would you care to list how long each of our coaches were at Marquette post-Al?

[GoldenWarrior11]

You're wrong on two counts.
First, there are multiple accounts on X - including blue checkmarks - claiming Zaide was dismissed after an altercation with a coach. Do a search. This isn't about "a random unverified account."

Second, it's in Marquette's interest to squelch fake "news" posts that cast the program in a negative light. To do otherwise means people will believe it - go back a few pages in this thread for proof - and it damages the program's reputation.

You may think "Oh, it's just a BS rumor on X that would have blown over if Marquette didn't call attention to it," and that might be true. Then again, it might not. You never know what's going to take hold out there and sitting back and hoping for the best isn't a good strategy. Best to proactively get out in front of it.

Google Kate Cornett.

Then the athletic department or communications department should have released an official statement saying as such, not allowing the intern or manager running the account to respond to it without any official oversight.

[GoldenWarrior11]

Except that folks on twitter - and on here - were buying into the story...

Guess it was a major fail that the MU account didn't respond to the Hauser letter rumors then.  I know that was rampant on Twitter when that situation was happening.

"The information regarding the altercation is inaccurate."

So there was an altercation?

That reads really poorly. Wonder if Zaide could explore legal options on it since it could impact future NIL deals and where he ends up.

You're dumb.

Amplifying a known burner account's rumor to an even larger audience on twitter is dumb.

You should stop doubling down.

Of course there was oversight to a response on that subject matter. Come on.

The problem is you don't know WTF you're talking about.

Ehhhhh I think you should look in the mirror.

Do you really not see the difference between a letter and allegations of a physical altercation?

FFS.

[GoldenWarrior11]

Glad they didnt need to edit it then after the fact. You know, since it had oversight originally.

Did those rumors cast MU basketball in a false or damaging light?
Are rumors about players writing letters whining about usage the same thing to you as those claiming a physical altercation between a coach and a player?
Kind of a dumb analogy when put that way, don't you think?

[BM1090]

????

Or they are saying there was no altercation, but he is leaving the program (or was dismissed).

Y'all are making a lot out of absolutely nothing.

Ya. I mean if nothing physical happened then I'd be pretty upset if I were Zaide reading this. And this was their 2nd attempt at it!

[Zog from Margo]

It is interesting that MU didn't say the part of the post saying Shaka dismissed Lowery from the team is inaccurate.

[burger]

Two more misses hopefully next.....More juniors....

[wadesworld]

This sums it up perfectly.

[BLWarrior91]

If it's true that Lowry got in an altercation with an assistant, it will be first time in his MU career he was actually aggressive.  We basically got nothing for two years and he becomes a starter this year.  Shows a few signs of promise then disappears for long stretches. 

Time to admit that he was part of one of the weakest recruiting classes we've ever had.

They didn't amplify the rumor. They shut it down. Not that hard to follow, yet some idiots can't seem to comprehend that MU said there was no altercation. What don't you get?

You're a clown. MU did Zaide a favor by shutting down any rumor about there being an altercation. Even if the origin of the rumor was some twitter burner account.

There is sure lots of follow up engagement from the edited initial tweet to say they "shut it down" lol
