I think I was consistently anti Wojo, not just after losses. I do not remember, does that sound right or was I was the Farley of the Wojo era? Regardless, I was not trying to break up the boomer MU circle jerk, just talking basketball.

This was a historic loss.  The largest margin of defeat between 2 top 5 teams according to ESPN.  Yet it’s a rational take to say the loss today was a good thing and anyone who disagrees is in a state of panic.   That’s world class levels of copium.

That is not what ESPN says. If you look again, it says in a Top 5 conference matchup. Feel free to go back to the juvenile back-and-forth with VBMG, something I'll never understand why posters do here.

Hey Rico

I hated being the negative guy back then and know I pissed off a lot of scoopers, especially younger guys on here I like.

There’s a difference between negative and honest.

That massacre dropped MU from 11 to 14 in KenPom.

To the extent anyone on the Selection Committee considers the computer metrics to separate teams that are close otherwise, today’s game hurt more than a more competitive loss would have.

Committee proved today that they don’t really pay attention to the games so personally I don’t think it makes much difference. Doubt a majority of the committee even knew we played today. Lot of politics involved.

No, Marquette basketball is and circle jerks.

What’s the fascination by people using that phrase on scoop?  Must be a Jesuit thing

I’m with Doc……a close win today and perhaps the same plaguing issues aren’t addressed. Hopefully, now they will.

Jop continues not to box out.
Jop continues to get beat on the first step.
Kam needs to get right. 2 airballs from deep…..want to see more of those crafty drives.

Maybe this beat down will be ammunition that Shaka can use to get this team where we all want it to be.
You forgot one. Gold is not near what some of the Gold fans on this board think. Not one of the MU players is NBA ready.

NBA scouts disagree, but I will defer to your superior wisdom and perspective.  I will also defer to you over Shaka in regard to Gold.

Hey Willie

I love that you go way back and have enjoyed a lot of great basketball, but do you think maybe you’re slipping a bit?

Don't think so. I love the Warriors and want the best for them
Today was really bad and I call them as I see them. We are not in UConns orbit and there is no excuse for that. Shaka better step up and get some players. UConn has.

We're not competing with a team like UCONN if Tyko goes 2-11, 3 rebs, 3 dimes, 4 turns.  I believe you will see a much better Kolek 3/6, in the BET, and in the NCAA tournament.

Willie

I love your enthusiasm, your longevity of being a fan and life story, but I think you are completely off the reservation on pretty much everything you posted in the last hour.

I am roughly 10+ years younger than you and desperately want to see MU win a NC for the first time since I was 13 years old. I’m not an expert, but I am a big Ben Gold fan, and this team can win the NC this season. A lot had to go right, but I think you are missing the boat big time.

UConn is better than MU and were much better today. That said, I hope you do not write this team off because they got blown out of the state CT today. As I said in another post, there might 2-3 more losses before the tournament starts, and I am good with that.

Farley isn't the first poster to only come out after losses.  It was an entire industry under Wojo.   Chico used to become much more active after Buzz losses.  Some posters just like to vent.   Their right.   Farley likes to troll after losses.   His right.   Can't take it personally or seriously.
losing to Wisconsin is personal. Seriously, I can’t help it.
And unfortunately, Gard knows ball.

OK.   Sucks for you.   But it is good that you have a place to open up about your issues.

Your brother in law's team lost at fricking Iowa.  And you are allowing his smack to affect you?

The worst metric there is.

Season long, not at all. You're just a big fan of losing players.
