1998-99 Season

Coach: Mike Deane

Final RPI: 129

Leading Scorer: Brian Wardle - 12.3ppg
Leading Rebounder: Mike Bargen- 5.4 rpg

Mike Deane's team played four ranked opponents during the 1998-99 season, winning just one of those contests. The team finished with a losing record and failed to make either the NIT or NCAA tournaments. Although widely considered to be a very good game coach, with the bulk of Kevin O'Neill's recruits gone, Deane's recruiting deficiencies became apparent. Deane commented publicly that a school like Marquette should be happy to make occasional post-season appearances. Marquette didn't agree and showed Deane the door.
