Around the Big East

A lot of people thought Thomas would be ineligible as well. Then he signed with us.

Looks like Zierdon from Creighton is out for the season. He's their 2nd leading scorer and shoots nearly 40% from 3

DePaul looks like Kentucky today.

 

[ccnobz]

I was surprised to see they were getting 14 from Xavier today.

 

[Jack Williams]

DePaul with 34 points with 8 minutes left in the first. On fire. Looking to wrap up a sweep of Xavier this year

that's a killer. who'd have thunk that the top 25 team early in the season would go winless in the Big East? Funny thing too is that they really only have 1 bad loss. It's like Depaul and Creighton are having each other's season.

They bring a lot back next year.

Transfer Henry has been huge for them. We could have used a transfer like him this year to help our seniors.

At this point, are we supposed to be rooting for DePaul since they beat us? Their RPI is still over 100, but it's quickly moving in the right direction.

Refs have their finger prints all over this one. Fine by me though, hopefully Xavier stays undefeated at home until we get a crack at them

If I didn't know the team, and you told me their record was 11-0 at home, I would guess their overall record would be like 14-3. Amazing how they can be perfect at home and a pitiful 1-5 on the road.

Carlino has hit 4 3's in the first 5 minutes for Marquette against Georgetown....

 

[simplyred]

Carlino's performance today further highlights what a GREAT job Dom did on him in the 2nd half the other night.

 

[Spocky Ramone]

Every time Marquette looked like they were toast today they have answered the bell.

 

[Spocky Ramone]

I don't know if Wojo will pan out as a head coach, but he's got his guys giving 100%. They are diving after every ball.

 

[SJUalum98]

Carlino = ONIONS

 

[MJDinkins]

Carlino = ONIONS

He got fouled, too.

 

[Spocky Ramone]

Georgetown 95, Marquette 85 - the final score is no indication of the game itself. Marquette was gritty!

 

[tom in salem]

This conference is a BITCH.
