Unclear playing time at MU vs clear playing time + more money = no brainer.

We are comparing apples and oranges here. If any of us were offered a huge increase in compensation from another employer and our current employer countered and we decided to stay do you really think the current employer would adjust all the compensation of its current highly valued members? I don't think so.

I agree Sheek's departure is multi-faceted, but it reveals that Marquette's financial resources are limited more than it reveals why Sheek left.

Just because you CAN afford something, doesn't mean you SHOULD pay the asking price.  You're not overpaying for a used car, right?

Pretty sure everyone is in this economy.

I'm not sure this analogy really works, but if you need a car and don't have a car, the options are paying the best rate you can find on a serviceable car or sticking with the bus or your feet.

I mean, unless there's an Uber option where we can recruit matchup dependent bigs to come off the bench every game...

Every high major was dealing with some serious surge pricing on bigs this year.  Our local Toyota Tercel will probably get us to the same place as the Honda fit would.  We don't want to drive either, but we know the Tercel functions and everyone seems to accept it for what it is.  Neither of them are very sexy cars, but they just have to get us to work and back a couple of times.
