Scrambled Eggs - Marquette Basketball

Perhaps the ending was inevitable but it was still a journey

Well the season ended as it always does and we've got to break it down. #ScrambledEggs talks about that New Mexico game and whether the outcome was inevitable for #mubb. Then we try to put the season in perspective in terms of expectations and performance and do some evaluation of what went wrong. We then turn to an early look at next seasons rosters and the burning question of to portal or not to portal. We close out with a thank you to the seniors and a reflection on Kam Jones career. Enjoy!

Please Dance with Caution

Welcome to the most exciting, important, and stressful portion of #mubb season. We are back to talk about where they are seeded in the tournament, what take-aways we have from BET, and how we feel going forward. We chatted about the match up against New Mexico and then look forward a potential match-up for revenge against Michigan State. We talk about hope (and good 3pt shooting) as the one and only path to a deep run. It's a fun pod and have to hope we've got several left in the season. Enjoy!

Better but not good enough ends the regular season

Welp, it wasn't the regular season ending we wanted for #mubb and it's been a long time since we've been daggered like that. We're back to talk about the last week of the regular season and just kind of sort out our feelings. We also talk about where the team is at overall and what hope/fears we have for the win or go home portion of the season. We chat about the Big East tournament and what we can expect from there before turning to the NCAA tournament and touching on seeding and match ups. Now it's time for everyone to get serious. Enjoy!

A Week That Went As It Should

Finally #mubb had a "normal" week. #ScrambledEggs is back to generally overview the week that was and talk about the challenges of the week to come. We chat about some of the performance against Providence and Georgetown and what it means for the rest of the season. We then chat about the UCONN and St Johns games from a basketball perspective. We also get a little misty eyed about senior day and the end of the regular season. Lastly we spend some time talking about seeding. As always, enjoy!

At a Loss Over This Loss

Welp, it's gonna have to be another #mubb therapy session for #ScrambledEggs. We kick off the pod with a little bit of "WTF is going on around here?". We spend time breaking down how concerned we are and if there are any fixes on the horizon. We then talk about the balance of the season and what potentially may happen. We then close out with discussion of this week's games and the worry we have for the road game against Georgetown. Enjoy!

Winning the Bye Week

Welcome back #ScrambledEggs listeners after a rare weekend off for #mubb. In this episode we spend a little bit of time talking about DePaul but mostly focused around the performance of the team to date and how we can see the bye week helping (or not) the performance going forward. We then look ahead to the Seton Hall game, which should be a win for the boys, but we aren't taking chances and neither should they. We then talk about where the team stands in the standings and for March, including a discussion of the path to a share of the conference title. We close out the show with a Villanova discussion and projection. Enjoy!

Pull up your therapy furniture of choice

Well, we were hoping it wouldn't come to this but it's time for some #ScrambledEggs therapy. It's been a rough 7 days of basketball outcomes for #mubb, so let's do the hard work and come to a good place. First we talk through the losing streak overall and what our biggest concerns are. We then talk about the results directly and what needs to change. We then get therapeutic for a bit before closing out on #DLTD. Also there is the jinxiest jinx to ever jinx. Enjoy!

Yep, we have the NMD Sads too

Welcome back #mubb fans, and we at #scrambledeggs are just as sad about the NMD result as you. We kind of, sort of, skip over the Butler game and jump right to the disappointing result against UCONN. We break down what we saw in the game, what we're concerned about, and how this team pivots from this moment. We then spend a lot of time talking about the St John's game on the road as it is likely the toughest test left on the schedule. We also talk about the road game at Creighton and what #mubb can do to replicate the early conference season victory. It's gonna be a tough week but there's potential to come out at the end of the week fighting for possession of a conference title. Enjoy!

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!
