I think we can stop calling these "secret" scrimmages. Marquette's official Twitter account tweeted out highlights of their win over Indiana. Nothing secret about them anymore.

Translation of slow start usually means poor shooting.Stats to see would be points made in the first half versus the second and who made the points.

Scrimmages aren't real games, so slow start just means whatever Pike was working on early in the game was less effective than whatever he was working on later.

We need the season to start already so we can discuss things that really mean anything

Agree. The scrimmages are a waste of time unless they make it a charity game where fans can come and the teams at least try hard like our St. John's game.

Best of Luck,
Groz

Lol what? Scrimmages aren't a waste of time. Both players and coaches can use scrimmages for many things. This is wayyy off base. Have you ever played a sport before? If so, you didn't find scrimmages useful? You just want to go from practicing with your own team straight to the first real game?

Groz knows scrimmages are important for players and coaching staff. DIrect results, score, etc. is not.

Mulcahy needs PT
We need status report on where we are defensively
We need to try things out defensively
We need to see how different combinations of players are working
Players need to play against someone on other teams
Scrimmages prepare us for the season

If they werent important they wouldnt be scheduled.

Waste of time for fans trying to read anything into them, not a waste of time for player development.

There’s a non-zero chance we should lose to Towson. Don’t worry about the scrimmage from that perspective.
