What has changed with Marquette and is it sustainable?

Well, that's bizarre. I'm curious as to what your definition of 'metric' is.

Sorry, homie. I'll do better.

I am encouraged by the progress they have made since 1/1/26 following a disastrous start.  What tempers my glee is the fact that the BE this year besides UConn, SJ and maybe Nova is brutally weak.  Look at the net ranking of the bottom 8 teams.  I can't help but take the quality, or lack thereof, of our competition into account when I evaluate our progress.  I do believe that if we cut some dead wood and add a sniper and a couple bigs to our roster we'll be dancing next year.

I can acknowledge the improvement against a depleted Big East while at the same time remembering my grandmother warning about being fooled by "lipstick on a pig."  The contenders for the last 4 in aren't particularly impressive, but does anyone think we would win more than 3-4 of 10?  Is that even too optimistic?

The off season will tell us a lot. I think there is some optimism as a team like Seton Hall managed some degree of success this year.

Hey bozo - you can judge whatever part of the season you want if there is enough data points to support your argument. I am more than supported with facts to say last season was disappointing because of the second half of the season. I'm even more validated to point to why the team failed and how it led into this year.

I legitimately have no ideas how you can bring this bubble conversation and try and prove this as your "gotcha" moment. They don't have a bubble resume in the supported time frame. I have no issue with the time frame presented from the other side.

Only someone like you could come up with such a moronic attempt to embarrass someone while  only embarrassing yourself more.

Such a pathetic effort could only come from someone who thought their ace in the hole during a dispute was to brag about their ability to dunk. Gonna need video proof of that buddy. And even if you could do it, what type of sad, high school quarterback type story is that. Pathetic.

Next time you come at me boy, come correct.

Someone's feelings got hurt.  Not surprising, as you have zero emotional fortitude and are the definition of a drama king.

If you guys truly appreciate metrics, make sure to cheer loud for my brotha Markus today. #M2N

I'll be playing at an MLP event but will likely stream the game live or get them to put it in their big TV.

To be fair, Marquette just played St. John's very tough and almost beat Nova twice. We'll see how they fare next weekend against UConn.

Keep the core, add two starters and a rotation guy in the portal, and you have a tourney team next season.

Not guaranteed, but this feels realistic. I'd feel good about MU with that strategy.

You got embarrassed. What a cope.
