In the Dean Dome - Steals the win in the final moments - Game was on ESPNU
Talk about great coaching, tremendous effort, really cohesive team play and 3 point shooting
They were clearly in mid season form
I'm glad they're not on our schedule - they are very good!!!

They were on our schedule, they are called Wisconsin. In fact, Wisconsin is better. Strategy isn't much different. No crashing the boards. Just shoot, tip out, pass and shoot. Love to see ACC RPI killers continue though. More chances for our league to grab tourney bids at the end of the year.

Like Indiana State beating Notre Dame today
By the way, Oregon St up by 6 over Maryland with about 5 minutes left to play
The entire Obama family is in the crowd - game at Maryland - and on ESPNU
 
The three point field goal has been around since 1986. Somebody forgot to tell the coaches at SJU. Number of great 3 point shooting teams since then? Zero. Number of great 3 point shooters? Zero. Number of hyped 3 point shooters that didn't materialize? A bunch. Number of really good SJU teams since 1986. Very few.
 
Interesting 2012 article from NCAA.com on how the 3 point field goal changed the game.

Maybe the coaching staff should read it, especially how the coach of one team recruited shooters and told the team to take 3's or shots inside. No mid range jumpers. Our specialty. We shoot the 3, and defend it, poorly. The article discusses how some programs had a hard time adjusting to the new rule, as they packed the paint and failed to defend the three, or shoot enough of them. But that was in 1986 and 87. What's our excuse?
