What did we learn about Marquette in the preseason?

Like Providence, Marquette has taken advantage of the NCAA waiver and played an exhibition game for charity, against Milwaukee.

From that game, we see that the incoming big men who got the most minutes were Jamal Cain (14) and Theo John (22), while Ike Eke only had four minutes on the floor. John and Cain also combined for nine fouls, with Cain fouling out.

Those big men will be tasked with providing a bit more interior presence for the Golden Eagles.

Steve Wojciechowski spoke on the need for better defense on this year’s squad at Big East Media Day:

[Defense] has been a huge point of emphasis.
