Fun Facts re: DePaul game

[vogue65]

Why would we want the athletic department to spend its limited resources on 14th and 15th men who never play? I'd prefer they boosted the payroll for guys who do play, or may play an important role in the future.
Upperclassmen who don't play = waste of resources.

Practice is highly overrated.
Why not have 8 or 10 scholarship players?
Marquette is a relatively small school, let's admit that.
I'd rather have 8 players than 15 so-so players.
Good players don't need to practice, they need to play.

Mr. Iverson, welcome to MUScoop. I was a huge fan of yours on the Sixers. Killer crossover!

That Xavier game wasn't even in the top 5 bad games this season.

Bartorvik's worst games of the year by game score.

@ Creighton (12th percentile)
Depaul (16th percentile)
Maryland (34th percentile)
@ Xavier (38th percentile)
Indiana (39th percentile)
Dayton (42nd percentile)
Valparaiso (47th percentile)
Georgetown (47th percentile)
@ Purdue (48th percentile)

That's 9 Sub 50th percentile games from Marquette this year.

Shaka had 5 in the previous 3 seasons.

Fair. And I like game score as a metric so I won't push back too much. Xavier was really just a terrible first ten minutes when they went on a heater and we didn't respond. Watching the games, Indiana, Dayton, and Valpo all struck me as worse performances.
