Who?
Your mom.
I think they’re those brothers in Slap Shot . . .
Pete Townsend and Roger Daltry!
Well, we now know Howard can't recruit.
/s
Without having a clue who/what you're referencing in your post, (are they a jazz combo, an acrobatic act, an IT start up, an accounting firm . . . ?) I just want to say I feel for the Hauser Brothers, their parents, their extended family, the friends who have supported them over the years and the priests and nuns who prayed that they would stay together in their quest for greatness.
Wisconsin fans are big mad about these guys.
That program is not in great shape. Gard is a decent coach, but has not recruited well. This was a seemingly perfect unexpected opportunity to add some very good in-state talent to the roster and it didn't happen. Gotta be frustrating for their fans.
Basketball rosters are so fluid that Gard will have a chance to recover but to your point his first four recruiting classes rank 12th, 5th, 13th and 14th in the B1G. Not a program built on 4 and 5 stars but that's still not encouraging for a program that's made the tourney 20 of the last 21 years.
Hiring a new coach has its transition costs but Wisconsin seems likely to be an example of the gradual decline that often comes with promoting in-house after a great coach leaves and assuming things will be the same.
"That's pretty damn good actually... Oooohh, 'in the B1G'... neeevermind"
Yeah, it seems like Gard had a bit of a fluke season this year that may be fleeting; his teams were trending down the past couple of years.
Wouldn't be surprised if he's gone in a year or two.
Next time please include some context to your post, OP.
Everyone here was a huge college basketball fan 60 days ago. After Beilein’s most talented players leave and recruits are getting released from their NLIs, you should know who two of the bigger transfer targets are.
The Hauser Bros played for Marquette last year. Sam was a junior with All Big East credentials. Joey was a freshman. Both are versatile wings in the 6'8"-6'9" mold. They hail from Stevens Point, WI. Badger Nation was upset that they did not sign with Wisconsin, so getting snubbed a second time during this transfer process probably doesn't sit well with the kind folks in Madison.
Seems weird for Wisconsin to be so mad about it. I know they're from Wisconsin, but they also attended a rival school, no? I know they're not in the same conference but I'm sure they still view themselves as rivals. Plus, why transfer from Marquette to Wisconsin? Might as well stay at Marquette
Couple of talented Blue chip players from Stevens Point, Wisconsin. They were a serious recruiting win for Marquette, only a year and a half difference between the two. Sam is older, Joey is more talented and was recruited more nationally.
Some of the disagreements between them and Marquette stemmed from their feud supposedly with Markus Howard. Howard reportedly was relentlessly pushing Sam in practice, which kinda turned them off, and apparently Wojo never really got a good grasp on the situation. Parents are also probably a little too involved. Joey is good. Sam is solid, they're more limited players, but still good.
So they didn't like being pushed in practice and Joey chooses to play for Tom "Little Napoleon, Rape Enabling" Izzo? Wow.
Co-Worker said there was all kinds of locker room issues between the 3.
Howard announced he was staying and the brothers announced they were leaving shortly after.
What about Doogie?
What about Hunker Hauser?
If they are a class act. Why sparty. No real parents would allow this.
Likely their parents dont read mgoblog and tweets from Michigan fans. Therefore they probably have a huge misconception about the real Tom Izzo. Unfortunately the majority of college basketball is oblivious to what a monster he is, hanging out with larry nassar and stuff. At least we know the truth.
The rich get richer. We're in some real trouble with this rivalry for a long time. Juwan Howard game planning against Tom Izzo...smh
lol, what? Why are you shaking your head at Howard game planning against Izzo? What has Howard shown you to make you think he isn’t good at game planning? Or are you just trolling to be an asshole?
Hauser? You sure you don’t mean Quaid?
I didnt know who the Hauser bros were. Until now. So, thanks.
According to Wisconsin co-worker. They verbally committed to Gard 2 weeks ago, Mom was not happy.
Mom is still pissed that Bo Ryan never offered Sam out of high school, she told both of them they weren't going to Wisconsin. So both ended up at Plan B's.
Kids are good players. This is a solid pick up for MSU. Howard is an unbelievable athlete but the Hausers were probably tired of watching the offense start and finish with him.
That team totally fell apart down the stretch.
