(2020) PF/C - Dawson Garcia to Minnesota

[Stromboli 6,076]

I mean. He definitely perks up a bit when talking about Indiana, no? Feels like he pumps the brakes when talking about any other school.

Lol he forgot Kansas and talked about UNC in the past tense

I know this was just an Instagram thing, but it does concern me that he stated comfortability with the coaches at Marquette and then mentions the most important thing to him is relationships with the coaching staff. They’re also offering him Howard’s shots next year (which is obviously not going to happen, but no doubt it appeals to Garcia). Maybe it won’t come down to that in the end and we do land him, but those comments were pretty encouraging for Marquette IMO.

Also affectionately says Tommy Ostrom though haha

I remember hearing how Cody when he made his decision called Crean first not only to give him the good news but to ask how to break it to the other coaches. Man it would be awesome if that’s what Ostrom was doing.

He did also say Indiana felt like home... comfortable is a very neutral descriptor in my mind.

You don’t see us in the same forum these days, do you?

It seems like the primary factor in Garcia's mind is a well-founded one: the people he'll be hanging out with. I have no idea as to the culture and dynamics at Marquette, but I know what we have going for us:

• Phinisee
• TJD
• Brunk
• Leal
• Galloway
• Franklin
• Durham
• Race
• Damezi
• Smith
• Geronimo
• Hunter

Those are without exception some smart, focused, likable future teammates. Therefore, I kinda like our chances.

And by the way...

I hope Purdooooo absolutely destroys Marquette when they play on November 14th. And I think they can.

That #4... What? An actual police chief suggested that?

Not sure. I got it from a meme account I follow. Just thought it was hilarious and appropriate for this

So you post something that is most likely wrong to attack a school in competition for a recruit. How many Marquette players have been shot in their time there?

It’s really not that serious dude, he was just having some fun.

Ostrom also told Garcia that he wanted him to meet with Archie one more time before he made his announcement.

Wound a little too tight Iugradman, he was just trying to give us a laugh and it was funny.

Agreed, but I decided it’d be fun to put my reputation on the line on this one.

He is joking.  I highly doubt Garcia will make a decision based on a meme posted on a message board (at least without verifying the facts).

Since you make a habit of posting wrong things attacking IU on a regular basis, I'm having trouble determining if your main complaint is the likely wrong information in the meme or the target of the meme. 

 

 

And, since you seem to have difficulty with such things, I'm joking... mostly.
