Big East 2025 Regular Season and Conference Tournament Champions - St. John's Red Storm

Boomer is a Maryland Alum. He’s not all in. In the past he would throw shade our way. Probably justified but now tinted with a little jealousy. As long as you know where he’s coming from take it with a grain of salt.

That standard is ridiculous. This team has already won the regular season and then the BE Tournament. Two things we haven’t sniffed in years. On top of that we have a relentless Coach and a committed Administration. Nothing can take the shine off this season. They have people THINKING SJU basketball in NY.

Of course we want to win and go further. The Tournament is just one giant crapshoot. Unless you have embarrassing amounts of talent (we have a good team but really how many NBA level players do we really have) it’s a luck of the matchup.

🤔 The lackeys sucking up to the former pro athlete who pays their salary. I like Boomer but all I’m saying is Boomer likes to twist the knife a bit. He’s a Maryland booster and Alum.

A belated postmortem on St. John’s, focusing more on what this year was and less on how it ended

With 31 wins and Big East championship, this year is still cause for celebration at St. John’s despite early NCAA Tournament exit. (Photo by...

More reaction will come next month when I look back on the year more closely, but I couldn’t leave everything unwrapped up in Providence.

Thank you to everyone who reads and follows along, even if I’m not exactly the most popular guy in the room with my opinions sometimes.

This isn't Mount Everest, but maybe one of those plateaus you see out west.

We began this journey with enthusiasm, then immediate doubt as we limped home from the Bahamas with two losses. From that point on it's been an absolute Rocky story for us.

We hoped to be a top 4 league team by season's end. It was a reasonable goal and anything less a mild to moderate disappointment.

To wake up this morning looking down from the top of the league at everyone else is, well, for a lifelong Johnny fan, nothing short of a dream come true.

Yes, we have to clinch sole possession and no, that isn't a layup. But is there any doubt that we are one of the best teams in the country no matter what happens and we have the national coach of the year (if not the GOAT) leading us?

Lots of critical games to be played, but hey, we are about to play our first meaningful March basketball in a quarter century.

Bask in it fellas. This is a great accomplishment and by all means congratulations to every kid on the roster, every coach, trainer, and team manager.

I'm going to miss Dunlap. If he could play we would have beaten Arkansas
