The Duke has gone bananas

We really miss this kid. I give him credit for having the foresight to get off the titanic

He and Greg Williams have both been playing really well the second half of the year. In fact, Louisiana is tied for first in the Sun Belt, so Greg may even get the chance to play in the dance, assuming they win their conference tourney which wouldn't be a surprise.
Good for both of them, good players and great teammates by all accounts.

We definitely could have used both, and would have loved to have them. But just a reminder, each is in their 5th year and playing at lower level conferences which is probably more suited for their skill level.

Speaking of Marcellus whatever happened to the Duke of Earlington? Maybe he follows San Diego now.

That whole lower level thing is a bit overblown in today's college landscape. Williams & Earlington proved they were Big East level players before they left. BTW two of the best players in the Big East this year are transfers from lower level conferences (Baylor Scheierman & Souley Boum).

Mullins Revenge is actually Duke of Earlington. I believe he stated that previously

I don't disagree with you. I'm just saying they wouldn't be putting up the same stat lines if they were in the Big East. It's fair to ask how many Big East teams they'd even be starting on. I don't mean this as an insult to either of them.

NC Johnnie, Tyler Kolek at Marquette transfer from George Mason might be the best PG in the BE this year . No , Williams and the Duke were more than competent BE players here . I would say they had issues with CMA as did Figgy .

Physically, Marcellus is thinner...appears to be getting away from the under-sized 4-5...more like a 2-3 with some muscle.

Mullins Revenge changes name to “ Bring Back Lavin “

The roster turnover after year 2 especially Greg Williams and Marcellus Earlington leaving was the turning point for CMA's tenure here.

It certainly should have been a sign of his intransigence which I believe is the root cause of his problems. Like many have said the game has passed him by.

He';s way better than Wusu.

 

[Notanalum]

Became close w a fam member of his. He worked his ass off. Went from an after thought to a legit D1 kid. His fam always felt he had this in him and thought his role at SJU could’ve been bigger.

I thought it was criminal how CMA repeatedly played Wusu as a freshman over Earlington. I believe that’s why Earlington left.
