Scrambled Eggs - Marquette Basketball

That Sucks

Well, the start to the new #mubb season could have been worse, but not by much. Yeah sure, they won the buy games comfortably and had some fun along the way but the focus of the latest pod is the beat down in Chicago. Marquette had an early season challenge in facing a relatively unknown Indiana team, and to say they did not meet it is an understatement. We break down the game, what we think went wrong, and what of it is fixable. We also agree to mention the p word just this once and then we are never going to mention portal again this season. We do talk about positives, who/what do we like so far this season before turning to the week ahead. A critical buy game to get right and start fixing some of the issues, especially on defense before the only true big game on the non-conference home slate, Maryland. We break down the Maryland team, the Buzz of it all, and whether this becomes an early "must win". Tough start to the season, but we still hope you enjoy!

Buckle Up Buckaroos

Well, our long national nightmare is almost over. #mubb season is almost back so that means Scrambled Eggs is back! Hope you are really locked in because we have a lot of ground to cover. We start with a general roster overview and the players we are excited or intrigued by including a new crush now that the Jopwagon has exhausted eligibility. We then talk about the team overall and how we project it's offense and defense to perform. As is tradition, we wrap up with a game by game projection that doubles as game previews for the 3! games we have coming next week. It's a lot, but as always enjoy!

#mubb summer check-in

Scrambled Eggs and #mubb have been away for a while so we thought we might step back into the podcast studio for a hot minute to record. It's got all the general meandering that you've come to loathe and hate but off-season addition. First spend we spend time talking about everyones little homie from Memphis (extreme Gary Parrish voice), Kam Jones on his being drafted by the Indiana Pacers. We also talking about #mubb NBA legacy and who picks up that torch. Marquette also announced (as well as generally clarified) retirements of jerseys for Tom Crean, Jerel McNeal, and Markus Howard so we talk about that and other MU greats. We then talk about the non-conference schedule announcement and one of us has strong feelings. Close out with some light roster talk. Enjoy!

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!
