Clearly Shaka is trying to rehabilitate.....

[muwarrior69]

Caedin and Tre's narrative and reputations with the fans....

The fans know they stink.....

Are they getting boo'ed?????

If he can't re-habilitate their reputations.....He will be forced to jettison them.....There really will not be an excuse....

You can't carry two worthless players on a top 20 revenue team and get away with it....

It is not fair to the fans, alumni, university, and especially the rest of the team.....James can't play 40 minutes every night....

Find the best one year portal center rental you can.....A Kur type.....You simply can't go into next  year with these two on the team.....

Find a 40% guard three shooter....second....

Easy....peasy....

It may be mean.....But it is reality.....

You have a link to that? If Marquette is top 20 in revenue for basketball then why is our coach #44 in salary?

Would benefit MU for all of Hamilton, Jones, Norman and Clark to be elsewhere next year

If after 2 years in the program he can't give 8-10 minutes a game, I'd have him checked for a serious underlying condition.

Is it a conditioning issue? I guess that would explain the lack of #FREEINGJOSH - but I find it hard to.believe a 20 year old can't run at full speed for 5 minutes.

What was the biggest fleece is wojo nearly got 4.6 million in FY 2023.

A guy I golf with told me that he's going to Ohio State.

Lol. You friend is FOS.

I think scoop snoop is being sarcastic, throwing back to last  offseason when it was asserted that Sean would be leaving then.

Bad data.

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Did this whole situation really work out all that well for Marquette?  Sean's been collecting checks for the past two years despite playing less than 10 games total, even though he was healthy for about half of last season.  I get that the money was already spent this year, but it seems like MU got the short end of the stick, especially considering Sean is not a Big East-level player.  He definitely rode the RGV gravy train for as long as he could, and right now there's no guarantee that he'll actually leave.

I'd be absolutely shocked if Sean is back next season.

I'd be absolutely shocked if Sean is back next season.

MU's position is that they gave him 4 years. The parties know he's not getting paid by MU next year, so it looks like an amicable agreement. If SJ can get two years of pay from someone else, that would be great for him.

I think Sean would want to leave anyway - I have to imagine he'd like to find a starting role at a lower level than play 10 MPG here.

I'd still like to keep Clark. There's something there. I think he's two years away, but no harm in keeping him as a 3rd center and letting him develop. They just need to upgrade the spots in front of him.
