Marshall, Shockers player two-year game well

Some quotes from the article.

“We didn’t set out to do this,” he (Marshall) said. “We’ve used every avenue possible to get the best players.”

The Shockers are grabbing good talent and are on a list with schools such as Marquette that work well with two-year players.

“Wichita State is gaining a tremendous reputation with junior-college coaches around the country that their kids can come in and have success,” Mullen said. “They really understand what junior-college kids are all about.”
