Marquette is salivating on their BB board for us tonight. Good summation of how teams view us I'd say.

We are one additional player away from making an exponential leap as a team.
I hope tonight’s the night
Cole is solid if not great
Martin and Whaley are workhorse although not multi dimensional..
Jackson is a wild Card with room to grow
Sonogo is the guy they want to stop
An additional outside threat blunts the double.You force them either to let a shooter take open threes or dropping the double. Maybe tonight’s the night

They didn't have Morsell then and they're a significantly better team than they were when we first played them.
Do you think Mich St, WV and Providence fans post such stupid comments on their message board when they beat us when we weren’t at full strength? Asking for a friend. I’ve seen this posted several times and it’s laughable. And people actually liked it. SMH

The key point made is Marquette players have improved throughout the season. UCONN shows no, or at best very little improvement. Obviously the difference in coaches. UCONN's inability to finish around the basket has been a constant since Hurley's arrival. There are drills to correct this but nothing has changed. A simple thing as having your head up when shooting a layup would be a big improvement. Anyone knows that using the backboard increases the percentage of success significantly, but this team hasn't been instructed or they don't listen.

You do realize getting good at layups is significantly more complicated than using the backboard and a few drills right? You know this isn't elementary school basketball?
 
With all the talk of violence and medievality, I usurped my opportunity.
 
@Heritage @Old blue and @MU in MKE ?

imagine thinking division one basketball players have never been taught to use the backboard. :confused:
 
Whether the so called "experts" like it or not, Marquette has prime-time versatility on both ends of the floor. When the Warriors are on their game the precision, poise, cohesion, excitement, anticipation, and Medievality to shred teams from all spaces and angles, remains a strength very few teams can match.
This entire post sounds like it was written by their own version of Scrappy3
 
Tonights game will definitely be interesting. With Morsell and Sanogo playing it may very well be a completely different game from last time. The trajectories at the moment are also quite different, as many mentioned already. Marquette fans have to in part thank UConn for that, since it was one of three games in a row that finally got the team in sync. I still would imagine that UConn is hungrier for the win though, while Marquette consistently has been bringing the effort (at least on the defensive side). All said, this one is a bit of a toss up in my head, but having to pick I'd say Marquette edges this one out.
Good call.

:rolleyes:
