2024-25 Rankings

Our best team of all time lost to Niagara early in 84. No need to panic, yet.
At least that was on the road. They also escaped St. Bonaventure and Fordham by 1, at home. Although, with no shot clock, and no three point shot, those were probably somewhat acceptable results.

I didn't expect a finished product by this point, but we look farther ahead now, then we were at this point, last season.

The defense is massively better by leaps and bounds. The rebounding not so much. And the first half offense not at all. I think our team three point shooting is better by the eye test..
 
Jeff Goodman is no longer an AP Top 25 ballot voter, but last Sunday he had St. John's at #19 and just now updated us to #13. Not many teams in the 15-21 range lost this week, but we did have a better win than most, so I think we'll crack the high teens tomorrow.

Wonder why he lost his vote
 
I think we’ll move up into the Top 20 after this win. Have to win 2 of 3 in the Bahamas to stay ranked.
Gotta be greedy Gene, never ever settle.

Heart wants to kill it, be top 10 and look around at the other top dogs, and tell them, Johnny's backkkkkkk, and we're staying here.
My brain is more realistic and says gotta take atleast 2 of 3.

How great would it be to enter B.E play, say top 7 nationally.
Looking at UConn and saying: "We're taking your crown."

You know it must have killed Rick to go 0-3 against Danny the whining idiot.

Yep, I always dream big.
 
CBS predicts we'll be #21:

#22 St. John's ranking on AP Top 25 ballots this week vs. last:
Bozich (WDRB Louisville): #20 / #21 (+1)
Borges (New Haven Register): #17 / #17 (-)
Berman (Roanoke Times): #22 / NR (+4)
Average: +1.67 (#20-21)

Looking at the 10 spots ahead of us in the Top 25, only #21 Ohio State lost, and they were beaten by #23 Texas A&M who should pass us. Wisconsin, which just beat #9 Arizona, should pass us too.

Based on other activity in the Top 25, we would likely drop one spot to #23, but our New Mexico win should get more AP voters to add us this week.

Expect a minor bump, to around #20.
