Transfers in/out 2025-2026

[MU82]

Fresh off his 22-point, 24-rebound game for Washington, 6-foot-11 German import Hannes Steinbach sure would look good in a Marquette uniform.

All it would take to outbid Washington, other potential suitors and the NBA would be a bag of maybe $6-7 million. Not a problem, right?

Send him to Mader's....

Back up the brat truck!

Love it!

Some keep asking "What's the harm of keeping Caedin around as a bench player?"
The answer, as we saw tonight, is that Shaka can't seem the resist the urge to play him, despite mountains of evidence that it's going to hurt the team.

Hamilton is just clueless on the floor. Keep Clark as the project for one more season to see what he has. Norman, Hamilton, Jones, and possibly Owens should be gone.

I'm just ... I can't understand Shaka and staff. It makes no sense. Gonna take some gummies and try to make sense of this.

No reason to move on from Owens.  2 of Jones, Norman, Hamilton or Clark should move on.

Isn't the handwriting on the wall?  In a game when Gold was gassed, James was gassed, Hamilton played 5 minutes, Norman played 4 minutes and Clark zero. Shaka has zero confidence in these players and only plays them to get a quick breather for his starters.  The substitutions usually coincide with a TV timeout, to help out. 

See what happens in few weeks after post season player exit interviews and the portal opening.

I don't really care too much if Hamilton and Norman play 5 and 4 minutes respectively.  I don't love when those minutes overlap like that did today.  Both of them on the court at the same time is a problem.

I care. Shaka is crazy

[Vander Blue Man Group]

I'd rather they not play but this team has minimal depth.  Playing them together compounds the issue.

[Zog from Margo]

Owens is a great athlete, but he plays soft and makes poor decisions. If he stays I hope he does well, but he hasn't shown me he belongs.

OK, Hamilton played 5 minutes, 3 of which were with Norman.  Norman played 4 minutes, 3 of which were with Hamilton.

I see a ton of talent and a high ceiling if he can put it together.  Again, I don't see any reason to move on from him.  You don't need his scholarship to create room for transfers and he could be a nice piece off the bench.

Could have a Jajuan Johnson-like trajectory.

People are forgetting parham and Owens are tight and more or less came as a package deal. It would surprise me if one left and the other stayed.

Three is not enough

[Vander Blue Man Group]

Three is not enough

If they're the right ones it is. 

If it's more, great.  I just don't realistically see Shaka clearing that many spots.

[MuggsyB]

1) Badass 5.
2) Badass 2-Way Sniper.
3) Badass Switchable.

If we hit this trifecta, we'll be in business. 

[Viper]

Shaka will fill Zaide's scholly. Otherwise and unless Sean were to graduate and move on, this team... along with the RS's and incoming recruits, will be back. Thus, 1 transfer in, no more than 2.
Staff? Maybe Shaka makes a change. Whoever scouted this current junior class needs to move on. Ultimately it rests with Shaka. His seat is hot, as it should be. 26/27 is make the dance, or aloha means goodbye.

I wouldn't call them a package deal. They didn't link up until after both committed to Marquette. 

Royce didn't move to Western Reserve Academy until his senior year, while Damarius was there for sure as a junior, and I believe even earlier than that.

I think both will individually decide to do what they feel is best for themselves.

Again, as stated by others, Shaka needs a backup guard to help with the minutes of James and Stevens.  Both were gassed tonight and James makes some dumb turnovers/bad shots when tired.  Jones injury hurt the rotation, Norman not the answer, otherwise he would have received a lot more minutes during the season.  Owens not the answer and I have no clue about the redshirts, maybe Shaka does.

Cody Hatt recruited Tre Norman, but he also recruited Kolek and James, so I guess Shaka will keep him.

Fake news #lies 

[Viper]

Oddly, I think we all anticipated a 18-20 loss season in year 1 under Shaka. Coming off a dumpster in Wojo's final season, along with incoming unknowns, and yet Shaka got MU to the dance. Year 5 a 20 L season I did not foresee.
