It’s been a little over two weeks since Shaka Smart was officially announced as the new Marquette men’s basketball coach. He’s been a little bit busy in the interim between getting to know his existing roster, setting up a workout schedule for said existing roster, assembling his assistant coaching staff, and reaching out to potential transfer targets. If we’re being quite honest, one of the last things a new head coach needs to worry about is extending scholarship offers to high school juniors.
And yet, it is something that Smart needed to worry about eventually, and he’s gotten around to working on the long term future of Golden Eagles basketball.
