Shaka can't do that again

[willie warrior]

This is by far the worst MU team defensively seen in a long time. Just piss poor terrible defense. Nobody can defend down low. This team is totally on Shaka Kahn.
Anybody think it is time for the red hot poker near Shakas kielbasa?
The gap has widened for MU even against DePaul.
Where is Reekers big mouth these days?

Did Clarke have any other offers. Pretty sure Ham had literally no other D1 offers. Idk wtf shaka was thinking bringing these two inept players on board. Maybe he was banking on ittejere to work out but damn what a joke.

Clark reportedly had offers from UT-Arlington and Sam Houston.

The best thing to happen to Josh Clark is to play behind Caedin Hamilton. Ultimate back up quarterback syndrome

Other than his 22 footer that went 24 feet, he had a good night offensively.  But he was continually getting beat on drives to the paint.  Poor night defensively like the rest of the team.

with his athleticism and length, should be a lock-down defender. In contrast to his hops on offense, it's as if his feet are in cement Nike's on D.

Halftime we were up  by 8.  I  came a minute and half late to the start of  the second half  and we  were down  10.   I couldn't believe it.  I didn't know what happened?  Guess now I have an idea.

Letting Gunn go off like that was ridiculous and preventable.  He was continually open or at least had enough daylight to have a good look.  When a kid like him with a nice shot gets that, he can kill you if he's locked in.  You get in his grill and give him zero space. 

You don't go to help off of him as
Chase did one of his buckets in the first half.  Left him for a second to drop and help on a drive, it was kicked back to Gunn who drilled it.  Chase had a hand up on the release, but it wasn't close to bother the shot any.

It is quite a contrast for him offense/defense.  He seems in general lacking any toughness. Just plays soft defensively.  Like you said, tools are there to be much better.  Maybe more game reps he'll figure it out.  But sometimes, crazy athletes like him are just soft.  We'll see.

This is essentially true for the entire team but I had high expectations for Chase defensively but it feels like he has gotten beat off the dribble this season.

The "deflection counter" used to be shown on nearly every broadcast but I don't even remember the last time that's happened this season.

The most surprising thing about this season has been just how horrendous the team has been defensively.

Every good AD keeps a 'list'. Is Broeker a good AD?

Runs happen, but how fast DePaul did it to us, typical of this season.  They needed less than 3 minutes for a 14-0 run! 😳

Does everyone remember when we all used to praise Shaka's halftime adjustments and how the team used to come out and play so much better in the 2nd half?

I'm not one who believes that Shaka is mailing it in or will leave after the season, but the total reversal of what used to be a strength and is now yet another weakness does make you have to wonder what the heck is going on.

[Mu8891]

Is Broeker a good AD ? No.

He's a career No. 2 guy. Boring. No personality and has never had to make an actual decision at MU ... not one.

It does feel like Buzz's last season, but without the off the court drama.

Things are quite bizarre.  Maybe in the off season things will become clearer.

Lucky you. I wish I had come back a minute and a half late.

My wife accompanies me on my cardiologist appointments, and I made her swear that she never, ever mentions my watching Marquette games.

Are you his assistant?

But we hired him after a "national search" and paid a firm big bucks
