Podcasts about Marquette

This week Mark gets a surprise on the podcast when a special guest joins the podcast. We open the podcast discussing the Wisconsin Badgers Women's Hockey team 7th National Championship after beating Ohio St 1-0. Next we jump into the Aaron Rodgers news and give our thoughts on both the updates and Jordan Love. We discuss the early exit from Marquette in the NCAA tournament and the deep run of the Badgers in the NIT. Lastly, we round out this week's podcast talking about the Bucks, Brewers and World Baseball Classic. 

It's March Madness time. An Eau Claire sports reporter catches us up with the tournament following several upsets, including Marquette's loss to Michigan State.

We dug into our hot takes and yours – largely on Michigan State basketball's NCAA tournament win over Marquette and matchup with Kansas State in the Sweet 16 in New York, on Tyson Walker's legacy, what to make of Mady Sissoko, changed perceptions of Joey Hauser, and what this means for MSU's team, program and Tom Izzo.

March 19, 2023: Michigan State advances out of the second weekend of the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2019 when they made their push to the Final Four. The Spartans defeated the Big East regular season champs, the Marquette Golden Eagles, 69-60 despite only making two three pointers on 16 attempts. MSU has been able to show off its famed versatility and ability to win games in a variety of ways already in this NCAA run. The game was tied at around the four minute mark before everyone on the team made winning plays to seal the deal. Walker hit shot after shot, Hoggard directed traffic and hit a wide open Hauser for his only three, Sissoko made two enormous blocks at the rim, and Malik Hall pulled down a huge offensive rebound with 1:30 minutes left. MSU won with its grittiness and defensive connectedness never allowing Marquette to get comfortable in their offensive execution. Be sure to get your Spartan Gear and apparel at Nudge Printing.

March 17, 2023: Michigan State entered the 2023 NCAA tournament for the 25th year in a row and the second as a 7 seed. This year, MSU faced the USC Trojans and like last year, will head into the weekend with a chance to make the Sweet Sixteen. The Spartans headed to half time tied 34-34 but came out in the second half with a renewed focus on defense holding the Trojans to just 33%. Couple that with some good offensive execution and MSU ran away with the game winning comfortably by 10. The outcome of the game was a little surprising because this is a Spartans team that usually needs good production from behind the arc to score enough to win. However, today they hit only 5 threes but were lethal inside the arc against the #2 two point shot defense in the country. MSU advances and will play Marquette in the second round on Sunday.

March 18, 2023: Michigan State advanced to the second round of the NCAA tournament by defeating USC 72-62 March 17 and will face the #2 seed Marquette Golden Eagles from the Big East who advanced by beating Vermont. Marquette won the Big East and the Big East tournament and is a dangerous team led by head coach, Shaka Smart. Smart doesn't employ his 'Havoc' defense that made him famous in his days as VCU's head coach but they do play a high pressure half court attack. On offense, they are a versatile team that can shoot extremely well inside the arc and doesn't turn it over. However, they are an average 3 pt shooting team and a poor rebounding team on both ends. The question for MSU is which AJ shows up and if it's the great one like in the USC game, can they break that pressure and get some easy looks for threes and twos? If MSU brings that defensive effort again it is possible that we could be witnessing another historic run for a team coming from the 7 seed. Make sure your gutters are clean and in working order. If not, and you live in the Grand Rapids area contact Kurt.Stauffer@brothersgutters.com to get the team at Brothers that Just Do Gutters on the job. They will do a great job and get it done fast.

Things discussed: Did anyone break down the NIT bracket? Go check the Bracket Assist Tool—it's got all the NIT teams in it. Michigan offseason: Assume the Big 3 come back, what are they, and do they invite back the bad bench? Jett talk: He's not playing winning basketball, team actually plays its best games without him. Well, he looks like a freshman. He shouldn't, because he's a coach's son and an NBA son and an IMG guy, but do the NBA or IMG teach defense? NCAA vs NBA: NCAA you're part of a team, NBA you can shoot threes and ignore defense unless your team is one of the few with a chance of winning a title. Offense is going to take a leap forward when Dug figures out how to point—go look at KSU's point guard. This is a several year process, but he should go from an 21/16 TO/assist guy to a 28/14 guy, to a 32/12 guy, to a 40/10 guy. How to portal: There are SO MANY guys out there. Get a glue guy who can rebound like the guy from Wofford. Get a JT Shumate. Llewellyn? Michigan can afford to keep everyone on scholarship using NIL, but they need to have a conversation with TW, Tschetter, and if they get back Kobe, Llewellyn as well, and say "this is the role you've got, because we're hitting the portal for your position." Bracket talks: Purdue has a pretty easy run to the Elite 8 and is screwed after. Duke is meh, Tennessee lost Zeigler, KSU and Marquette are the best 2 and 3. Craig's advice (via Roundtable alum Ed Feng): UConn over Kansas. Penn State? Like Shrewsberry, love Pickett, but they're so three-dependent, their shot volume stuff is terrible, they're 2nd to last in the country at turnovers and offensive rebounding. Hockey: go read Alex's article.

After winning the Big 12 Tournament Championship by defeating the Kansas Jayhawks, the Texas Longhorns have become one of the most successful teams in college basketball. With a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament, many experts are predicting that the Longhorns will make it to the Final Four. CBS Sports analysts Set David and Jay Wright both selected the Longhorns to make it to the Final Four. David picked Texas to come out of the Midwest, while Wright chose them as his runner-up to national champion Kansas. Both analysts also chose Alabama and Marquette to advance from their respective regions. ESPN's Stephen A. Smith did not include the Longhorns in his Final Four projections, selecting Alabama, UCLA, Indiana, and Duke instead. It remains to be seen whether the Longhorns can meet the high expectations placed upon them. Interim head coach Rodney Terry has done an excellent job in leading the team to success, and the Longhorns seem to be heading in the right direction as they prepare for the tournament.

Here in the American Jesuit universe, we're in two parallel holy seasons at the same time: Lent and March Madness. Nine Jesuit teams between the women's and men's tournaments are in the Big Dance this year, and you can read all about them on our website at Jesuits.org/basketball. Today's guest didn't quite make it to the NCAA tournament this year, but he led one of the biggest success stories in all of college basketball this season. And this was his first year as a head coach at any level. Keith Urgo is the head coach of the Fordham Rams men's team – and the Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year. Fordham put up a record of 25 wins and 8 losses this season; the last time Fordham won this many games in a season was all the way back in 1991. Coach Urgo has deep Jesuit roots: He went to Gonzaga College High School in Washington, DC, then played basketball and lacrosse at Fairfield University. After college, he spent time working with a nonprofit organization called PeacePlayers, which uses basketball to bring people together in some of the most divided countries on Earth. He's a fascinating guy and you'll want to keep your eye on him in future years. In the second half of the show, we're re-running one of our favorite basketball segments we've ever done here on the show. A couple years ago, host Mike Jordan Laskey talked to the author John Gasaway, who writes on college hoops for ESPN and wrote a book on Catholic college basketball called “Miracles on the Hardwood.” At the end of that conversation, John and Mike took turns drafting the greatest men's players in Jesuit basketball history, building fantasy teams who will only ever compete against each other in our imaginations. Don't forget to root for Creighton, Marquette, Gonzaga, Saint Louis University, Holy Cross and Xavier this week.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast host Ryan Abraham and special guest Shotgun Spratling are together again recapping their weekend in Las Vegas for the Pac-12 Tournament. The guys were there checking out the Trojan basketball team that was trying to make a run and win a conference title. That wasn't meant to be as Arizona State knocked off USC in the quarterfinals, sending the Trojans home early. The guys talk about what went wrong in Vegas with Andy Enfield's squad that wasn't entirely healthy heading into the tournament and why the extra rest might be just what the doctor ordered heading into the NCAAs. Heck, USC also did the Pac-12 a solid allowing the Sun Devils to get a big win and sneak their way into the field.  Depending on the results in Vegas, the Trojans could have been seeded anywhere from 7 to 11, so coming in at No. 10 is about right. The Trojans do get a tough matchup with Michigan State and will be playing the early game on Friday in Columbus (plus it is St. Patrick's Day, so there will likely be even more green in the stands than normal). It's a tough draw but coming in as the underdogs can likely serve USC well and give the Trojans a chance to play well and move on to a likely match-up with No. 2 seeded Marquette.  Ryan and Shotgun also talk about what they saw from day one of USC spring football last week, the first opportunity the media has been able to check out the new look Trojans. Shotgun started off talking about five-star freshman receiver Zachariah Branch who everyone has been raving about. His potential is off the charts with terrific speed and strength and most everyone is calling him a “without a doubt” type of prospect.  They also discuss how the offensive line looks with a few newcomers on the roster and some guys playing different positions as the coaches try to build depth by cross training everyone.  True freshman quarterback Malachi Nelson is coming off a non-throwing shoulder injury but he looked good and actually took part in team drills from what Shotgun was told. Freshman defensive back Christian Pierce also looked good with great size, length and a ton of athletic upside. As this was the third practice of the spring with players wearing shoulder pads, there was actual tackling going on. We got to see pursuit drills from the defensive backs as they took angles and brought the ball carrier to the ground, exactly the kind of plays USC's secondary was missing on last year. Shotgun was also told that there was more tackling throughout the practice after the media was asked to leave.

MU Head Coach Shaka Smart join us to talk about Marquette's incredible season by 102.9 The Hog

The Gonzaga Bulldogs and Saint Mary's Gaels are both in the west region, although a matchup between the two is unlikely barring a big upset by the Gaels over Kansas, or perhaps a gift from Arkansas in an early win over the Jayhawks. Today is a delayed mailbag episode and we discuss who the biggest key for a deep Zags run in March is, Malachi Smith's status for next year, the epicness of Las Vegas as a college basketball conference tournament destination, which team in the west could pull off a major upset, if Marquette deserved a two seed, and whether auto-bid winners should have to participate in the play-in games or not. We close out the show discussing Saint Mary's with Zack Farmer of the unofficial WCC hoops podcast, including if a rematch is plausible, their draw against VCU, and having to travel across the country to Albany.

03.14.23 Kevin starts the show recapping and reacting to the moves that Washington made during the first day of the legal tampering period. Kevin's What Do Ya Got focuses on Shaka Smart's run with Marquette. John Keim, ESPN, on the early moves made by the Commanders and what moves could come this week. 

Let #MarchMadness begin. Kennesaw State will square off in the first round of the NCAA tournament; Wheeler knocked off Cherokee to win the state title; The adult spelling be was a huh success; And an area man had written a book to make sure his parents' experiences in the Holocaust are never forgotten.     Now, it seems real. It had been a full week since Kennesaw State defeated Liberty to win the ASUN Conference tournament title and earned a spot in this year's NCAA Tournament On Sunday, the wait came to an end. The Owls earned the Number 14 seed of the Midwest Region and will face third-seeded Xavier on Friday in Greensboro, North Carolina. Tip-off is set for 12:40 p.m. on TruTV. The winner will advance to play either sixth-seeded Iowa State or the Number 11 seed — the winner of a First Four game between Mississippi State and Pittsburgh. Xavier, which lost to Marquette in the Big East Conference title game, is one of the highest-scoring teams in college basketball, averaging 84.1 points per game, but Kennesaw State coach Amir Abdur-Rahim said he knows exactly what to expect in the matchup. He said Sean Miller's teams are always physical and will guard well. Abdur-Rahim said he has seen Miller's teams up close before. Twice as an assistant at Texas A&M, he coached against Miller's then-Arizona teams in early-season showcase tournaments. In 2016 the Aggies played the Wildcats and fell 67-63. A year later, Texas A&M got a point closer but lost 67-64. While the history with Miller may not have played in Abdur-Rahim's favor, he is still happy about who and where the Owls will be playing as they make their first NCAA Tournament appearance. Greensboro is only 5½ hours from Kennesaw. For fans interested in purchasing tickets can visit the NCAA's official ticketing site at NCAA Tickets dot Com. As the final seconds ticked off the clock in Saturday's Class AAAAAAA state championship game at the Macon Coliseum, Isaiah Collier began to let his emotions out.  The Wheeler point guard dribbled the ball for the last time, fell to his knees and had a quick moment of prayer. Just seconds later, he was swallowed up by his teammates as the Wildcats defeated Cherokee 78-58 for their third state title in four years and the ninth in the program's decorated history. The fact that Collier was still on the floor at the end was a surprise to some, but it was something the Southern California-bound Naismith High School Player of the Year asked his coach for. Collier wanted to honor the memory of Khalil Hardison, a former Wheeler player who drowned last August while swimming in the Chattahoochee River. Hardison was Collier's cousin and the son of Wildcats coach Larry Thompson. Once Collier got back to his feet after the dogpile, he was still emotional. With tears coming down his face, he and Thompson shared a long hug, and then the celebration started in earnest.  In his final game, Collier showed why he is one of the best -- if not the best -- high school players in the country. He finished with 22 points on 9-of-13 shooting and seven assists, and he was key during an 11-3 third-quarter run that helped put the game away. Wheeler finished the season on a 17-game winning streak and without a loss to a team from Georgia. The victory over Cherokee was the Wildcats' 12th in a row in the series and the 21st of the last 22.  The Downtown Marietta Development Authority and the City of Marietta have announced the 2023 Glover Park Concert Series, presented by Marietta Dental Associates.

The smell of beer and popcorn permeated the Strand Theatre as the boisterous crowd settled in for the evening's entertainment. A voice boomed overhead as lights flickered on and off, creating dancing shadow-apparitions on the walls of the Strand's art-deco interior. It was time for the crowd to quiet down so the costume-clad performers could make their introduction. So began the Sixth Annual Adult Spelling Bee, a fundraiser for the Cobb branch of Communities in School, a school dropout prevention and intervention organization that offers resources to students in need. Each team burst out from behind curtains to music blaring and roars from the crowd, running up one aisle and down the other, slapping hands with the audience before jumping on stage to find their seats. By scanning a QR code from the event's program, audience members could participate by donating money throughout the show. People could vote for at least $1 each time to support their favorite group, or they could buy a team back into the contest for $150 if a word was spelled incorrectly. The crowd, as well as the contestants, were fired-up throughout the night. As each team rose from their seats and approached the mic, dancing and singing would inevitably ensue before a spelling attempt was made. Dressed as Disney princesses Snow White, Cinderella and Ariel, the “Once Upon A Time” team — Joy Doss, Bobby Johnson and Matt Giddens — received the most votes as the fan favorite, raising more than $3,000. Team “Bee-g Bang Theory,” comprised of Raymond Goslow, Michael Miller and Andy Tatnall, spelled the final word — incunabulum — correctly and received trophies for winning the big event. In all, over eighty five thousand dollars was raised. Michael Ruskin was on a mission as the last surviving member of his family to write about what his parents endured at the hands of the Nazis. That drive culminated in Ruskin sharing his parents' story of surviving the Holocaust in his book, “The Vow: A Love Story & The Holocaust.” Ruskin spoke about the book Saturday at the Marietta History Center. He told attendees his parents did not talk much about what they experienced when he was growing up. Ruskin did not know the full story until after his parents died. After his father died, he found a bunch of old documents and photos while cleaning out his father's Miami condo. This was the beginning of his journey to tell the story of his late parents, David and Dora Ruskin. Michael Ruskin spoke about how his parents were forced into a Lithuanian ghetto, called a “safe zone,” early in their marriage. They survived horrific conditions in cattle cars as they were shipped into the unknown. His father ended up in Dachau, the first concentration camp built by the Nazis outside of Munich. Ruskin's mother was sent to the Stutthof Concentration Camp in northern Poland with his sister, Rose, who was only 3 years old when she was killed. Somehow, his parents survived. At the end of World War II, David Ruskin was liberated in 1945 by American troops, and Dora Ruskin was liberated the same year by the Russians. The book describes their journey to reunite and move forward. For more information on Ruskin's book, visit The Vow a Love Story dot com. Sitting at the corner of Barrett Parkway and Bells Ferry Road, boarded up and abandoned, the fate of the Robert McAfee House is uncertain. There is a historical marker in front of the house, but the house and land are not protected, according to Trevor Beemon, executive director of Cobb Landmarks and Historical Society. The property is owned by the Medford Family Limited Partnership. The house was constructed for early Cobb County settlers Eliza and Robert McAfee. During the Civil War, according to a historical marker on the front lawn, the house was used by Brigadier General Kenner Garrard as his headquarters shortly after Union forces seized Big Shanty, now known as Kennesaw. The house is located in unincorporated Cobb, and an application to rezone the land it sits on is currently being reviewed by the Cobb Board of Commissioners. A developer is looking to buy the land and build a car wash on the property, Beemon said. The only way to save the house is to relocate it, Beemon said, and using the house as a commercial structure isn't financially viable. In order to help make sure historic properties in Cobb are protected, Beemon urges people to attend Cobb County Board of Commissioners meetings on a regular basis. Historic homes on private property can be tough to save. Director of the Marietta History Center Amy Reed said that there is only so much the historical society can do, but they would love to be able to save this house.    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It was a busy past two days in Michigan State athletics, and we're here to cover it all for you: The Spartans are set to play USC in the NCAA Tournament, spring football practice begins, and women's basketball coach Suzy Merchant is stepping down after 16 seasons.  Lansing State Journal sports columnist Graham Couch is joined by beat writer Brian Calloway at the beginning of the podcast to discuss Merchant's departure. Then, Graham and Detroit Free Press MSU beat writer Chris Solari break down the Spartans' tournament opener against USC (and potential second-round game against Marquette) and discuss MSU's quarterback situation.

Could the Kentucky Wildcats actually get to the Final Four this season? On today's episode of Locked On Kentucky, Lance Dawe discusses what a path to the Final Four in the NCAA tournament would look like for Kentucky basketball. John Calipari is in a position to make a run after earning a decent draw with a handful of revenge games along the way. Can UK shut down Bryce Hopkins and the Providence Friars? How does Kentucky match up with Kansas State? The hardest jump may be Marquette - is Shaka Smart poised to make the Elite Eight with his lack of postseason success? Dawe also discusses what another outlet has predicted for the Wildcats, as well as Oscar Tshiebwe's earning of AP All-American status for the second season in a row.
