Around the Big East

Yeah Georgetown may not be all the way back, but they are certainly on their way.

Rick said last year that the SJU/Georgetown rivalry was going to be strong again, he said not this year (meaning 23-24) but said starting next year.

Opportunity to scout Villanova tonight vs. UConn. UConn will have to be prepared to play without Cooper Flagg tonight, and very possibly for the rest of the season. But maybe McNeely will make it back for them at some point.

Flagg plays for Duke.

I don’t think Peacock will be picking up a lot of new subscribers today.

Confusing lines. Uconn even starting at -1 1/2 seemed a little low even without mcnealy. Now line has flipped with Uconn getting 1 1/2.

 

[lawmanfan]

Flagg plays for Duke.

That's why they had better be prepared to play without him for the rest of the season, Dink!

[N.B. there's a back story / joke to the LMF "Flagg on UConn" bit someplace around here, IYKYK.]

Ungrateful bums, we took them in like Moe Greene took in Fredo.

If nova can play UConn in the pavilion, why can’t we play them in carnesecca?

Sad

Sad

Yeah, it’s disheartening to think DePaul equaled our three point output against Butler so quickly

Samson Johnson reminds me of a more springy/coordinated Vince.

Still not sure if I’m making a compliment or not

 

[MugCostanza]

Villanova has put it together and are playing the best they have in the Neptune era. Still wouldn’t be surprised if they lose this game by 10 though. But they won’t be an easy out on Saturday

Nova looks good. Lots of deflections leading to fast breaks. UCONN having difficulty, down 32-25 at the half. Looking at the first half I think Nova takes this game.

 

[sjc88]

Watching the Nova/Yukon game. Dave Sims excusing the boorish and constant whining of Danny Hurley on an obvious foul call is off putting.

He said something to the effect that these experienced Refs know it’s Danny so he didn’t T him up is ridiculous. He acted like a total jackass and should have been hit with a T just like everyone else would have.

 

[dk423]

Nova is up seven while shooting 33% from three and Dixon having only two points & going 1-8. Super impressive effort by their supporting cast.

Do think our size will cause them fits. UConn isn’t the same without Liam

 

[dk423]

Seton Hall is down 41-26 at half against DePaul. Seton hall is also shooting 45% from the field. Solve that riddle.

Mid major talent with low major NIL

With our win yesterday and UConn, his strongly predicted National Champ again, struggling tonight, Mullin’s Revenge makes a move:
