Sheek in the Portal?

[TallTitan34]

Oh boy this has turned into the reverse Mbakwe thread.

[The Sultan]

Most don't know this but he actually started the war with Iran.

OTOH, "The Ayatollah" is a cool nickname.

"The Sheik" isn't as intimidating, but it would let JB say Sheek left because of The Sheik.

A tv show, 'Caedin Alley'?

[We R Final Four]

Let's face it those players were all bad, Hamilton probably played more then most of them, record shows, 12-20

[Pakuni]

Going back to when I started MU in '84, players 6'8 or better I would take Hamilton ahead of...
Mueller
Grosse
Leurck
Polonowski
Blackledge
Mbao
Roseboro
McMorrow
Grimm
Durley

This is a completely fair list.
However, these 10 players started a combined 22 games* for Marquette during their first two seasons, and (to the best of my recollection) were never sold to us as impact players. Hamilton started 17 games last year and was billed as the baddest mfer around thanks to a massive transformation and jump.

*9 of those starts were by John Leurck, who was listed at 6'7"

Nobody is mad at Caedin. People are unhappy with the staff for setting unrealistic expectations and then forcing a not good player into the starting lineup/20 mpg for the first couple months of the season when he clearly didn't deserve it.

Others who came close to my list for various reasons, but I would marginally take in front of Hamilton at this point (still believing in the possibility of redemption for 18)...
Lovette
Shaw
Heldt

One of these things is definitely not like the others.

"Nobody is mad at Caedin," is quite the take on here.

OK, who's mad at Caedin?
Not critical of his play, or his usage, or even the fact he's still on the roster. Who's upset at him personally?

[BCHoopster]

I am not, happy the kid is being paid a nice amount.  The blame is on Shaka recruiting a zero star player.  But if he can get healthy, he might give MU some minutes.  We have heard Josh Clark has improved, we will see when the lights come on

There's definitely posters on here. Not reasonable posters who should be taken seriously, but yeah.

I'm mad at Caedin's parents for bringing him to the world.

[MU82]

With this season starting in less than 3 weeks and with 18 out for months due to injury, we're still yammering on about him playing too much the first half of last season. Because that will really impact what happens this season.

Wojo was the worst!

And Buzz should have played Magic Dawson.

[The Sultan]

Dude, we were still debating if Markus should have his number in the rafters last year.

18 divided by 3 is 6. There are three sixes in 18.

666.

We're phucked (pawz).

That's auspicious as unnatural carnal knowledge. MU is cooked

THIS is why MU is going DIII. (and the $35 a year of available NIL money)

In the Jewish culture, 18 is "chai," which is Hebrew for "life." The number 18 is considered a symbol of good luck, and Jewish people say, "L'chaim!" (or, "To life!") when they share drinks with others.

We're saved!

You forgot to mention the free quarter zips for the players. Shaka and his staff have to pay for theirs though.

Just got a 50 yr anniversary quarter zip from Cutter and Buck. I really like it.

From what I heard, Wojo wouldn't pay for the quarter zips, so they fired him. You can't blame MU for that, even though MU ended up with a bottom of the barrel coach and the crap record since. I mean, who would want to coach at MU?
