Extend Mullin ASAP ;)

Great win. I'm at least a little encouraged for next season if they can return most of their core.  Very excited for Saturday's game at Carnasecca bright and early. #WinOut

#1 and #4 in four days!!! A win Saturday and our season is somehow back in play. 17 wins gets this team in with these last two wins.

I didn't see the game.  I listened to last 3 minutes of the game on satellite radio, and was stunned upon seeing (the score shows up on the face) we were up 4. 

A heckuva few days for this group.  Kudos!  Keep the train rollin'!

Two great wins in a row! Someone has to convince the team Marquette is ranked second or third in the nation.

Great win. Let's enjoy it. But let's also cool it with NCAA Tournament talk. It is not happening. Even if we win out during the regular season we'd still have work to do in the BET to get in. Going 4-2 over the last 6 and we have to win BET to get in. 4-2 plus a loss in the BET championship game puts us at an 8-14 overall conference record. That doesn't even put us in the conversation

If the team finishes over 500, are they NIT bound?

How ironic would that be? From complete disaster to right where the team should be....

Would think so based on strength of conference and at least two wins over top 5 teams.

What a win. What a week. Easy group to root for. Ponds needs to stay for junior year!

Stop peeing in our Wheaties.

This was an incredible and franky, astonishing win. If you can win at Nova why shouldn’t you believe you can beat anyone? Isn’t that what we want our guys to think?

As crazy as this sounds, if we get 17 wins, we will be finishing as one of the hottest teams in the country w 2 top 4 wins and near wins agaist #5Xavier, certainly considered good losses. We went from looking like we would be winless in the BE to playing like a final four team. Let’s hope we can continue the momentum. Would definitely help w recruiting and retaining our players. Hard for opposing coaches to negatively recruit after this week.

There are six games left

Home vs. Marquette, Butler, and Seton Hall

Away vs. Marquette, Depaul and Providence

If you win all of them plus the first round of the big east tournament (and assume a loss in the next round). That puts us at 19-14 (8-12 BE) with one of the best SOS in the country, and two top 5 wins. I would think we'd at least be on the bubble.

I do not expect this to happen, but at least there's a glimmer of hope. If we can beat Nova on the road and Duke we should be able to beat anyone. I just don't think we have the consistency to pull it off. I'm hoping for NIT at this point to salvage what looked like a completely lost season.

Tell 'em the 1976-1977 Marquette team will hit the floor on Saturday.

I didn't say anything about who we can or can't beat. All I said was being 1-11 and talking about getting an at large bid to the NCAA Tournament is insane
