RJ quit let him find his own way home

Damn so everything he did all year doesn't matter...led us back to prominence but has a bad game at the worst time and it's F him wow....guess you live a perfect life..never made a mistake...smh

I guess I’ll ask it, does Luis portal. Not a good look at all, no matter who’s at fault, and it’s already a big topic on Twitter.

Memorable season and loved the guys but team & coach as a whole no showed for this one and made little adjustments.

 

[SeattleJohnny]

RJ shit the bed
Kadary foul trouble ALL GAME
no one else stepped up.

let's run it back next season boys

Thanks to coach and this team for a great year. I'm still grateful for all the excitement and great basketball games that I got to see.

I know that Coach is already working on next year's team.

Hopefully the next team will take us further.

Thanks again CRP and all the guys on this team!

Nothing about that game looked like the team we watched all season. Disappointing end to a great season.

It reminded me of the team that played Georgia.

 

[redstorm to redmen]

FG 21-75 (28%)
3PT 2-22 (9%)

This is the worst tournament record in St. John's history.

I’d be more positive about the future if RJ wasn’t glued to the bench those last minutes.

Arkansas' length and ability to win off the dribble were the keys today. Too handsy on defense by the guards, and no one could buy a layup today. A very disappointing end to a fantastic season. Luis was never in the game today - makes you wonder what was going on there. I have never seen Richmond have the issues finishing like he did today. And, as much as it pains me to say it, Calipari outcoached Pitino today. Not the ending we wanted, but it's the ending we got. Here's hoping that the core is kept together, and they can find contributors at the point and some consistent outside shooting in the portal.

Their fans were right. We haven’t dealt with their athleticism or length. Their guards smoked us off the dribble all game.

This is the worst tournament record in St. John's history.

First team in a quarter century good enough to set a tourney record of any kind, so I give them a pass.

What a shame we came up short today after a wonderful season. Give credit where it’s due, coach Calipari and Arkansas. They exposed our weaknesses and played a heck of a game. I didn’t get to watch the entire game as I was coaching my daughter’s lacrosse team, but from what I saw we just never got into an offensive rhythm. I don’t blame the refs, if we made the shots, they wouldn’t be a factor. I thank the kids for giving it their all every game and for making New York believe again. Better days are ahead, I’m proud of this group, they achieved so very much. Hang in there ladies and gentlemen, our time will come. Best wishes everyone.

I think that he's going to test the NBA waters.

If there are no takers, I think that he may be back to learn more from our HOF Coach.

I said this repeatedly.

I have a feeling part of the reason RJ got benched is because that was the plan and he decided to go 1 on 5. We'll see.

 

[Amaseinyourface]

It reminded me of the team that played Georgia.

Only other time we played on one day rest and went from night game to afternoon. Thought about that this morning

 

[Fun Fun Fun]

I cannot tell you how happy you all are as disappointed with SJU as I've been for 50 years, I'm literally dancing

 

[SJU2000alum15]

Hopefully RJ on the bench is not something huge I still want him back here next year!

 

[sjc88]

Five years ago we would have died for a season like this. The perspective changes. Like today is a downer but it won’t last. I want Pitino driven to get us more. It sucks because in my mind we missed a golden opportunity. I know it doesn’t help how we feel today but better days are ahead.

 

[Carneybt]

CBS sucked with Lappas doing the game. He’s awful.

He never stops talking.

 

[MCNPA]

Horrendous offensive effort and our usual defense didn’t show up either. Luis should come back next year. Still has things to work on. Need more offensive firepower.

FG 21-75 (28%)

This is the worst tournament record in St. John's history.

And you can’t depend on your D to bail you out every game shooting like that. The D was just way off too. Too many blow bys off the dribble. It happens.
