Cadougan

Hats off to Junior. He showed a lot of heart in Marquette’s win last night.

Tristan Thompson

I hope he sticks with his decision to go back for another year at Texas. He has tons of potential, but watching him in the tournament and a few games towards the end of the season it seems like he could use some more polish. I like Texas’ chances next year with him, Joseph and Hamilton all back and Kabongo on his way.

No doubt. Junior played great in the Sunday game for sure. I hope this bodes well going forward for him.

As for Thompson, I think he’s staying, at least that’s what he said he’s doing. I think the Horns may be but a better team overall next season.
