‘26-27 Schedule

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

We pretty confident that Battle 4 Atlantis will be over Thanksgiving again?  Looks like it has been for at least the last several years.

[SchnitzelBoy]

I doubt we add another big at this point, but we're recruiting hat Canadian guard who would join up this summer should we sign him. Stiff competition with Providence and St. John's in on him as well.

I agree that going in with Caedin as the backup substantially lowers both floor and ceiling, which is a shame because we have no idea if Nigel (or any of these guys with NBA-type bodies) will be there the season after. What we CANNOT do is run him out as a starter in 27-28. If Nigel, Adrien, Royce, Damarius, MPIII, and Minessale are all back, that stacked lineup of seniors and juniors could be as competitive as our best MU teams. The long-term loss of Sheek could really hurt us.

I'm not ruling out that Caedin or Josh can be serviceable backups, that's actually a likely scenario. But that feels like their ceiling. We'll need to drop $$$ on a starting big man again next cycle.

This is how I find out it's no longer the Bad Boy Mowers Battle 4 Atlantis?!?!?!? 

They really downgraded with the Marquette vs. Oklahoma Bad Boy Mower Series at UIC.

If another big is not added, the only way Caedin substantially lowers our floor and ceiling as a back up is if Fru gets hurt.

You need to get some help for your HDS.

If so, I have confidence that Shaka will do just that.

-19 should not play more than 5 minutes a game....Then he will only be a -10....Still a huge problem.....

Looks like we have a home and home with Mississippi State. First game this year at Fiserv. Return trip next year.

Chris Jans loose in Milwaukee is like Willie's basement when Marquette falls behind 2-0, dangerous

Miss State ?  Meh

It's a Power 4/5 game, but pretty low on the interest scale.

Then don't watch.

Smarter scheduling. Can't lose all our high major games like last year.

I'm just giving you a piece of advice. If Mississippi State bores you so much that you aren't interested, there are other things you can do. Knit a scarf...clean the gutters...take a walk.

I am telling you there are other things you can do with your life. You aren't required to watch Marquette basketball. That should be freeing for you!!!

You're welcome.

Regardless the schedule, people will complain and worry.  We should have scheduled Kentucky!  Why did we schedule Kentucky?!?

Wow! This is the first time I heard that we scheduled Kentucky. Any idea when the game will be, and where? A home-and-home, right?
