Scrambled Eggs - Marquette Basketball

We Gotta Talk about the Upperclassmen

The #mubb season continues to trudge along with little green shoots that are generally overwhelmed by late game glitches and segments of incompetence. We kick off the pod not with a break down of the St John's game but evaluating the upperclassmen in general and the seniors specifically. This is brought on in reaction to commentary from Shaka Smart in his post game press conference. We then pivot to the Marquette moment in history which highlights the peak Buzz experience. We close out the pod with discussion on Dr. Strange's one path to an NCAA berth and the week ahead. Enjoy!

The one where the boys talk about evolving

Well, well, well. #mubb certainly threw out a bit of a bombshell this weekend(while letting X bomb 3s but pffffsssttt, whatever), in which Shaka and co reveal that the program is evolving. It is very heavily implied that that evolution, the portal is open for business. We spend a bulk of the pod discussing the report, the implications the program, and what impact we think we'll see this off season. As part of that discussion, we talk retention which leads us to discuss the teams performance over the last week. We then remember Chris Farley for happy times and close out with a preview of St Johns. Enjoy!

NMD win has us feeling a new feeling, positive trends

Well, #scrambledeggs took a break but #mubb did not. The team went 2-1 in games during the break and generally looked the best they've looked in 2026. We break down the player performances and game results and what the team seems to be building towards improved play. We then celebrate this week in MU history with a game that uplifted an otherwise sad season (sound familiar?). We then look to the week ahead and whether or not #mubb can continue the positive performances in February. Enjoy!

Green shoots of growth?

Welcome back to #scrambledeggs #mubb fans, we've got some growth (we think). Keep in mind the season is lost and we are viewing things through the lens of what do we have for next year but this past week was actually semi-fun for us. We talk about Nigel setting a freshman record in an improbable victory over Providence and the return of athletic Damarius Owens. For the MU memory this week, it's a special one that directly involved your podcast folks. Lastly we then turn to the next three games (SOMEONE is leaving for vacation and won't be on the pod next week) to talk about where, if anywhere, we can see a win coming. As always, enjoy!

The one where we talk about the future

Welcome back #mubb, it's another week of losses and conversations. We initially discuss the performance against St Johns and DePaul and search for positives (DO is turning a corner?). We then use that as a pivot into fan reaction to the team and potentially the most critical offseason in the modern era. We then look ahead to the Providence and Butler games to see if there is any hope this week for victories. I know things aren't good, but at least we have each other. Enjoy!

Maybe we bounced off the bottom?

We're back with another #mubb podcast and you'll find that we aren't quite as depressed as before. We review the teams performance in a nailbiting win against Xavier that shouldn't have been nailbiting and a nailbiting loss to Nova which we were surprised was so close. We talk about this teams lack of clutch and transitioning to players who have more upside as young players than others who've started or gotten extended run the last two months. We then celebrate a fun memory in #mubb history that is very much part of the visual media that a podcast isn't. Then we turn to the week ahead and while we don't think winning in the Garden is possible, this team could put up some fight against DePaul, which would be nice. Enjoy!

Still doomy but slightly less so

Hey all, new year same #mubb. Team still struggles offensively and can't lock down defensively when they need it but generally speaking the play has been better the last week. We talk about mostly, the Seton Hall game from this past week to frame the team performance. We then talk about #mubb memories past and close out on one of the last few hopes to break the losing steak, playing Xavier at home. Enjoy!

Let's hope this is rock bottom for the season but that seems unlikely

Happy holidays #mubb and soon to be happy new year in 2026. We weren't planning to pod prior to this weeks games, wanting to take time off during Christmas and all, but well, the program had other thoughts. As I'm sure you are aware it was announced that Zaide Lowery is no longer with the team which while not good isn't entirely surprising. However, the way it was announced and then the program responded to a troll post has turned it into a whole thing. So we chat about that, then we talk the games this week. We close out the pod with a new and, we hope, fun segment for fans. Enjoy!

Festivus for the rest of #mubb

The season has gotten dark so we're just gonna have fun from here on out. First we're gonna talk about the game results and any takeaways. Then we talk roster issues and challenges with current players but also a bright spot. Lastly, we are having an airing of grievances, starts angry but gets fun. Enjoy!

This was foretold

Unfortunately, nothing surprising happened for #mubb this week. Only one game this week so we spend a lot of time breaking it and the overall non-conference experience down. We then turn to the last seaming change for a win for the squad in a while, Georgetown coming to town Wednesday. We also talk about Creighton and what we think the conference schedule means for #mubb. Enjoy!
