I was very surprised. So, who do you feel did better with the hire, USF or Marquette? (I know nothing about the Duke assistant.) BTW, does anybody know the Marquette contract numbers?

I would have liked him here, that being said I think it is pretty close to equal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is well overdue. If he is successful at Marquette he will be the next coach at Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think he'll relate to the players better and find ways to motivate them out of the previous funk. Marquette is in good shape, so Wojo-whatever may be a better match for them. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Antigua (who let's be real very few people knew anything about before this hire) has to come in here, fix the program and win in order to move up.

In the end, it's probably a wash between the two. Wojo was clearly the heir apparent once Coach K left Duke. So, honestly I'm a little surprised he left for Marquette.
