Joel is playing like he is 5’10

Not very skilled

 

[sju2000alum]

Just can’t stop them from scoring putting up plenty of points on them

 

[espken]

Down 89-81, under 3 min.
Letting UConn carve us up.

Where the f*ck are our fans?

Not enough die hards to pay big $ two days in a row

We are competing. Just shot ourselves in the foot a few times (mostly RJ) and are not sound defensively against a team that is a machine like UConn. And we haven't been able to stop a quick guard all year, which makes you look bad.

RJ needs to understand he can't get away with some stuff against a high level team.

Agree to disagree, SJU has a couple of guys who are competing, not the team. If you think Soriano competed I have a bridge to sell you.

 

[lawmanfan]

Well, we sure look a lot better with him in there imho.

On offense, yes.

 

[kranmars]

Spencer 18, 9 assists and 5 rebounds

I know he has parents who love him and are proud of him…so I do not feel bad hating the sh*t out of that guy.

 

[PARedman]

UConn is just too good. I know we all hate to admit if, but they’re about to go back to back.

Yup, afraid so.

 

[NCJohnnie]

At least we've kept it respectable. They are just a much better team, don't know that there's a better backcourt in the country. Hope we get a 10 or 11 seed and it's not in East Region!

 

[Boo Harvey]

Love Soriano but he’s been an absolute liability today

 

[Jack Williams]

Biggest thing about this game to me is uconn is putting Soriano in constant situations where he was to make decisions on defense. Pulling him away from the rim, putting him in pick n rolls.

Seton hall didn’t challenge him nearly as much yesterday in that way

 

[paultzman]

They are a scoring machine & ball movement outstanding. Only way to beat them is if they have off night on perimeter it seems. It must drive Rick crazy how many open looks and layups we yield in transition

 

[Mean Gene]

Our offense is not the issue it’s lack of a true rim protector and not closing out on threes. And still we’re in this game. Still only a couple of stops away from maybe having a shot here. UConn is just better but still proud of our guys!!

 

[firestorm]

Yup, afraid so.

Best team in the country...but the tournament always has its surprises. I'll be rooting for 67 other teams...

 

[lawmanfan]

Agree to disagree, SJU has a couple of guys who are competing, not the team.

It isn't lack of competitiveness (will concede RJ and Joel have had lapses there). Just unable to defend competitively at too many positions. Agree they have gotten unacceptably out hustled to some loose balls tho, yes

 

[paultzman]

Soriano stands and watches as Spencer and Karaban get offensive rebounds for 6 points! Non Eijofor, no Dunlap.

Yeah, why stick w lumbering, step behind Joel while hustlers like Zuby sit

 

[fordham96]

They are basically the Boston Celtics right now, UCONN.

 

[kranmars]

Anyone who roots for UConn in the tournament should turn in their SJU fandom card.

Luis with the air ball.
