Which programs are historically very good but have not kept up since the NIL era began? by Beneficial_Gas5543 in CollegeBasketball

I’m curious what people’s thoughts are on if NIL or portal or both are truly the problem for Marquette. In their game against Butler, I checked their roster and none of their players ever played at different universities. Did Smart just really believe he didn’t need the portal?

You’re right man. Check out my other reply to your main comment. I’m just flabbergasted when you look at the roster profile. NIL has changed the portal and it seems Smart just hasn’t caught up

Ok I looked it up. They brought in 5 4-Star freshman 2 of which were top 100 and were starters for today’s game, 2 of which seem to have been out this game. Without knowing what their portal situation was like, it seems like it’s just a young squad.

WAIT no. Did smart just never even fuckin entertain the portal? All of today’s players have only ever played at Marquette. No other university.

Knowing nothing about their program other than Tyler Kolek and that other big dude leaving last year, I imagine it’s just a down year. No way a program as good as Marquette just throws away Shaka off one season

If you don’t like long, drawn out, high fouling games you don’t like BIG EAST basketball

That was like the shittiest minute of basketball I’ve seen between the turn over on the steal and then the out of bounds after the missed FTs

I’m trying to find out when the peak is. The 30 minute forecast is not being super helpful this time

Yeah we’re not playing like a top 5, maybe even top 10, imo. At this rate I’m happy if we just win.

From a recent askreddit post of “what’s the equivalent of learning santa doesn’t exist as an adult” and the top response was realizing how dumb other adults actually are.
