For the Marquette followers, our MU beat writer, Jackson Gross, just sent this piece in on Shaka looking to reclaim his trademark edge with this year’s group, a process starting with what he calls “implementation.” Here’s what that means, plus some wholesale updates. #mubb
Golden Eagles hopeful to bring back their edge in resurgent season - A Daly Dose Of Hoops
One hallmark of any team led by Shaka Smart was the edge and tenacity it brought every night. From VCU to Texas, and now at Marquette, his defenses have led the charge, and it’s been a very successful...

I’m assuming Marquette’s first-place vote came from Rick Pitino. He told @adamzagoria.bsky.social back in July that he thought the Golden Eagles were the best team in the Big East. #mubb

Breaking down St. John’s schedule: What to watch, what to expect from Red Storm’s ’26-27 slate
St. John’s released full schedule Monday, officially sending Red Storm on path to third straight Big East championship. (Photo by the Big East Conference) By David Okula (@david16okula) With exactly a month to go before its first exhibition game against Drexel, St. John’s released its full 2026-27 schedule on Monday morning. Following a year where the Johnnies secured back-to-back Big East regular season and conference tournament titles, made the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1999 and had an offseason full of major additions, the expectations have arguably never been higher for the program.

Marquette adds another transfer in Liberty guard Colin Porter
By Jackson Gross (@JGrossReporter) Colin Porter could be Marquette’s final piece after Golden Eagles signed former Liberty guard. Porter is still seeking a fifth year of eligibility. (Photo by Liberty University Athletics) Marquette has filled out the final player on its roster for this season, potentially. The Golden Eagles announced last Thursday that they had landed fifth-year point guard Colin Porter out of Liberty University.

I’m assuming this doesn’t count exhibitions, so I would love to know when Tom Izzo played a non-1 in the regular season. Some of the other heavyweights (Pitino, Cal, Self, Hurley, Painter, Sampson) were all mid-major HCs in a past life, so they’re easy to explain.

Yale reloads again, trusts next wave of Bulldogs to step up
James Jones has kept Yale at top of Ivy League for over a decade, and is hopeful that Bulldogs’ next wave of talent keeps program consistent. (Photo by the Yale Daily News) By Joe Budzelek (@JBudzelek) On the surface, there are plenty of reasons for Yale to look different this season. The Bulldogs lost Nick Townsend, their leading scorer and the reigning Ivy League Player of the Year, along with several other key pieces from a team that won its second consecutive Ivy League regular season championship and earned its fifth consecutive postseason berth.
