Also opportunities for upsets but yea, EXTREMELY TOUGHThe Big East is going to be trouble for us. Unless we are dramatically improved, which we don’t know yet. We are looking at 2 losses each to Marq, Creighton, UConn, and we know what Villanova does to us no matter what. Thats 8 conference losses unless we get some unexpected breaks. Zero margin for error.
Misplaced take… it happened in the first half and Shaka was the one who reacted and ran on the court.Kansas follows their coaches lead: no class. Winningest program in college hoops, but under Self’s lead they haven’t learned to lose with class.

Hard not to like Shaka.Big statement by Marquette. I'm not a big fan of either coach so whatever.
The top of the Big East is exceptional. We'll see about the rest of it.
He's a nightmare to handle because he's not a prototypical center. The guy is like a point forward all over the court. He's ideal for the current NBA style.Huge Statement game from Marquette. Igodoro gave us fits last year. I don't see any of our big men that can stop him.
Got to give credit to Shaka for putting this roster together and coaching them up. But honestly I can't stand him. If you watch him, he chirps at opposing players and does that annoying hands to the floor bit all game long. He' s a jerk and invites what happened IMO, but in the end is a really good coach. You can be both a jerk and a good coach - lol.
you guys know better than I , really don't know if he's a phony or a jerk but to take teams to the tournament in 12 of his 15 years ( including 23/24) coaching is pretty damn good.Shaka is a big phony and quite unlikable. His act with the media is far different than on the court.
On the other hand, Shaka has won one NCAA Tournament game since 2013 and is 1-8 in his last eight NCAA appearances.you guys know better than I , really don't know if he's a phony or a jerk but to take teams to the tournament in 12 of his 15 years ( including 23/24) coaching is pretty damn good.
I understand ,,, thanks,,,,On the other hand, Shaka has won one NCAA Tournament game since 2013 and is 1-8 in his last eight NCAA appearances.
We just had a lengthy thread (not to mention a years long debate) over how that isn't good enough.

I should rephrase that last part to say how some don't feel that is good enough.I understand ,,, thanks,,,,
Barnes first game as a coach was against SHU…..Hard not to like Shaka.
Regarding the Purdue game, it's amazing to see Rick Barnes going strong at Tennessee. First year in BE was our near-championship season, '88-'89.
Think of all the BE coaches who have come and gone in that span.
