Scrambled Eggs - Marquette Basketball

Call (out) and Response from the Bench

Welcome back #mubb fans to another episode of #scrambledeggs! First there is technically non-basketball news to cover, Marquette has a new athletic director in Mike Broeker. Congrats to Mike and we dissect the hire. Then we turn to basketball and talk about Shaka (and this podcast) calling out the bench and they responded with significant minutes in the Seton Hall game and a strong performance against Villanova. We break down both games a little bit but really focus on if the results mean Kam is back. We then look add to the trapiest trap game that ever trapped in Butler and then really look ahead to National Marquette Day against UConn. Enjoy!

Might be rock bottom, might not be, but we'll find out together

Well, a loss in conference place was probably inevitable so no need to panic but also, it was a tough week generally. #ScrambledEggs is back to talk the least fun week of #mubb on the season. We start with the actual loss against Xavier and discuss some of the challenges facing the bench and the offense. We spend a little time acknowledging the basketball gods correcting our hubris for trying to cancel #DLTD and what that game told us. We then turn to the week ahead and what we can hope/believe can be a recovery week. We close out with congratulations to Bill Scholl and light AD speculation. Enjoy!

Talking basketball and absolutely no other sports

Welcome back #mubb fans, light week for basketball content so we make the most of it. We first discuss the news of Sean Jones redshirting this year to continue his recovery from injury and the implications it has on the roster. We then chat about the tougher than some expected (but not us) Georgetown game. We then discuss the week ahead, including if #DLTD is still a thing and a home crowd for Xavier. Enjoy!

The one where MU wins and we answer questions

Welcome back to #ScrambledEggs where we're going to talk wins, Georgetown is good?, and answer your questions. First we talk about the back to back wins against Providence and Creighton to move #mubb to 4-0 in Big East play. We then talk about a Georgetown game that should be somewhat challenging, not that MU should lose but this isn't your little niece's Georgetown. We then close out the show with multiple questions from the audience ranging from line up changes to Jimmy Butler to the Bradley Center. Enjoy!

Holiday break is thankfully behind us

It has been a LONG time since we saw #mubb play but our nightmare is nearly over. #ScrambledEggs is back to talk the 2-0 start in the Big East, how things have gone, and what we've liked. Then we turn to the games ahead and discuss a road game against Providence and a home game against Creighton. We close out the pod with a discussion about confidence levels. Enjoy!

Well that was a bummer

We're back and unfortunately it's after an #mubb loss on the road. We, of course, have to talk about the loss to Dayton, especially after a bit of a collapse from the team. We try to project whether the team is figured out or if it was a fluke. We then sum up the non-conference season before looking at the conference as a whole. Then we close the podcast with a Butler/Xavier breakdown. Enjoy!

Up and down week, but mostly Up

Well #mubb fans the week could have gone better but it also could have gone way, way worse. Off the jump, pun intended, we talk about the emphatic win over Wisconsin this past Saturday. We also talk about the Iowa State game, Chase injury, etc. We then talk about the upcoming Dayton game (between Phil's rants) as a close out to the non-conference season. Enjoy!

Big challenges lay ahead, including #BadgerHateWeek

Thanksgiving week went about as expected for #mubb, unlike the rest of the Big East. We talk briefly about the two buy games completed by the team mostly so we can talk about a good thing (Damarius Owens) and a bad thing(Zaide injury). We then chat about the rest of the Big East which is super bad right now. While it's fun to cheer against our conference mates, they are performing so badly it might end up hurting Marquette a touch. We then turn to the week ahead, which is a doozy. First we talk about the road class against a top 5 opponent in Iowa State. This will absolutely be the toughest test for Marquette to date. Then, of course, is #BadgerHateWeek and we discuss bizzaro Wisconsin who is great offensively but so so defensively. Will this be the year that Shaka breaks through against Greg Gard? We certainly hope so but time will tell. Enjoy!

About as good a court performance as you could ask for

Welcome to Thanksgiving and another week of victories for #mubb. Also welcome to our new sponsor, mubbtees.com! We start the pod off talking about the outstanding performance against Purdue and that potentially catapulting MU into a top 10 ranking. We then spend a little time ranting about the TV situation for the Georgia game and some of you may not have seen the game so we walk through it. We then close out by talking about getting a couple of wins and some run time for the youngin's going into Thanksgiving. Enjoy!

Strong win, tough week ahead

Much like Slim Shady we are, in fact, back again (and you should definitely tell a friend). We have to catch up on the results of #mubb vs Maryland and Kam Jones going full Kam Jones as well as Stevie Mitchell stepping up to 2nd scorer and clutch player. We also talk about the development of some folks like Royce Parham. We close out the pod talking about the two games this week (Purdue, Georgia), what we think will happen in those games as well as the inexplicable TV schedule for the next two weeks. Enjoy!
