They have been really good all year.  They had Purdue on the ropes in Mackey earlier in the year.   Took Providence to 2OT on the road.   Offense is really good 

Shaka find his resting spot?

Definitely.   He is from Wisconsin.   Marquette isn’t a fish bowl.   No pressure and they are willing to spend whatever for basketball.   Deep pockets.   Probably top 5 in all of college basketball on how much they spend on the basketball program

I’m addition to what USPS said….

Marquette is very similar to Butler. Wisconsin has decent basketball talent, too. Nothing crazy, but it’s hardly a wasteland.  Unless the big boys come calling for a major recruit you really only have to battle UW. 
 

I like the fit and it’d be cool to see it work out for him there.

  But they are still the Warriors to me.

In his favor is that Miles was cut immediately. 

Of course, the cynic is me says that was easy considering this was a bench player who only played 6.5 mpg in 6 games. Pretty easy decision.

Doubtful he is big , young and will click up early . Long as he stays out of debt he prob be safe unless he wants to get down like that . For real will be a commodity once he hits the yard . Somebody will make something off him on the court

The Top 25 was... wild... to say the least. Wasn't easy at all this week.

That would be one helluva trend. I’d think a data point of one will be enough for the administration to step in and take a closer look at the situation. I doubt they wait for a second incident.  
 

It could be that this is just a wild outlier and he brings in exceptional kids, or it could be that he plays a little fast and loose when it comes to judging character. I have no idea what it could be, but I’ll bet the administration will want to know.
