Higher than expected

Definitely the “Luis Factor” Monte

I'm guessing Chris Ledlum is gonna suit up.

Wow I was thinking more like 4-5 points (even with Ledlum). Would be great to win this, we almost never have a winning Big East record in January. Last time was Mullin's final coaching season (2-1- got us into the AP rankings), and that only lasted one game.

Yet another indirect shot at CMA.

But he was taught how to throw rocks

Not so subtle digs Thad lol

So the current Butler coach had to teach Posh offense and defense. Anderson took care of everything else.

Yeah. like making reservations in AC.

The first poster who can write 10 posts on the game thread without mentioning Posh

Looks like SJU lawyers are now going to depose Thad.

Of course no one who is an SJU fan will root for Butler but I will be in the arena and will cheer loudly for Posh during the player introductions. For me he was a personal favorite because he always left it all out on the floor.

I want us to win badly and getting off to a fast start in conference play is very important. That said, whether Posh plays well or badly is irrelevant to me, if in the end we win. Personally, I would rather that Posh have the game of his life and we win in triple overtime than have him play awfully in a Butler win.

I will root for Posh to score ZERO points have 20 turnovers and we win by 20 plus with no overtime. Isn’t that what an actual fan of St. John’s would want want??

You can’t have it both ways and be a Johnny fan in this one. Posh went with the money, remember that.

I will root for St. John’s to win the game. Everything else is secondary.

Just noise, hold serve at home & on to Nova away

 

[Mean Gene]

6.5 seems like a big number. If we win , it’s a squeaker.

I disagree not saying Butler is a bad team but we win this one by 10-12 points. This is a game we have to win especially in Carnesecca.

What is the point of the Butler Coach taking a shot at CMA staff like this? Especially when CMA is not even coaching at this time.

Yet another indirect shot at CMA.

How is that indirect? Seems pretty direct to me

Posh learned how to sit on the bench like a Pro
