Scrambled Eggs - Marquette Basketball

Guys, it's been a minute. The summer was great and relatively quiet, but also a nice palate cleanser for last season. However, fall is upon us so we must return to the podcast studio to discuss the upcoming season and the team. We chat about the vibes from the offseason, do we care about Canada (basketball tours), and news/notes. We also talk about legal exhaustion then get to the fun part, the schedule. It's not the full game by game schedule review but we chat some overall schedule thoughts. Enjoy!

Welcome back to a non-boring #mubb offseason podcast in at least several years. We are back to talk all things roster as this most recent portal season draws to a close. We first talk about the incoming players and assess where and how they fit into the roster. We then talk players who've said and unfortunately an unexpected player to leave. We look at the whole thing together and the implications for the rosters next season. We close out with grades and looks ahead for the rest of the offseason. Enjoy!

It's officially official portal season for #mubb. Returners to the roster (majority anyway) have been announced so we discuss our excitement about who's officially returning. We then talk about who isn't returning (spoiler, we think those are positive too) and discuss what to make about the players on this roster of which there have been no mention whatsoever. Based on what's been announced and what we speculate about the unannounced players, we provide our recipe for a successful portal season with 3 known roster spots available. One other change we need to discuss is Nevada Smith leaving to head coach Siena. First of all, congrats coach we'll miss you but also please don't take your jar of magic beans with you. We discuss how Nevada's departure impacts the staff and program going forward and what we're looking for in a new staff member. Buckle up, this is the fun part. Enjoy!

Well, the #mubb season ended kinda sorta like we thought it would. We spend a little bit of time talking about the Big East Tournament but pretty quickly pivot to the most important off season in the program since at least Covid. We talk about what the issues are, what we expect from Shaka, and what we would prescribe for the team to find success next season. We close out with an overview of the college basketball landscape that Marquette is competing in. There is no doubting the pod will be back somewhat frequently unlike offseasons of the past. Enjoy!

Well, we didn't see that coming but it made it all the more fun. #mubb goes 2-0 for the first time since the first week of the season which includes a bit of a stunner over #4 UCONN. #scrambledeggs breaks down the victory over the Huskies and spends a little time on the PC beat down. We then talk this week in Marquette history before turning to the conference tournament ahead, where anything can happen. While a long off season is staring us in the face, we're hoping much like the plague victim in Monty Python and the Holy Grail "I'm not dead yet". Enjoy!
