The race is on for college basketball’s top brother combination. According to Marquette men’s basketball coach Steve Wojciechowski, Sam and Joey Hauser will transfer from the program and look to play elsewhere.
In three seasons with Marquette, Sam Hauser has started 97 of 101 games and averaged 12.7 points and 6.0 rebounds a game.
Joey Hauser started 31 of 34 games in his first season with the team and averaged 9.8 points and 5.3 rebounds a game.
As a junior last season, Sam Hauser was a second-team all-Big East selection and averaged 15.1 points.
The two brothers played together for two seasons at Stevens Point Area Senior High School, leading the Panthers to a pair of WIAA state titles.
Wisconsin missed on both players the first time around. Can they find a way to land both players this time?

Mike McCarthy
Apparently Mike McCarthy didn’t pick up on the WIAA’s crusade against berating officials recently. According to reports, the former Packers head coach was reportedly involved in an incident at Pulaski high school where his stepson was taking part in a high school basketball tournament game.
Fox 11 TV in Green Bay was first to report the story and confirmed with school officials that McCarthy was the person involved in the incident, which was caught on school security cameras. It showed McCarthy following officials toward their locker room after the game, when he was reportedly verbally abusive.
Pulaski high school athletic director Janel Batten told Fox 11, “This parent chose to follow the officials and berate them, which is clearly unacceptable.” “This parent” was McCarthy. [Read more…]
