The way he gets some of his numbers is frequently annoying, but there's no doubt that Jenkins is a major conference guard.
So I guess I'm the opposite on this: I'm shocked his numbers weren't better at Iona.
Too lazy to look up what all the transfers did last season, but off the top of my head:
Dingle frequently can't seem to get out of his own way head-wise.
Conway I think was recruited as a culture setter and we just needed to get a guy in here to look like we weren't recruiting in reverse. But I'm sure Pitino expected more than what he's gotten. I don't think we ever take a transfer from that low a level of D-1 ever again.

We beat them on their court last year and we almost did it this year. Let’s show up Saturday and send these assholes back north weak in the knees and shaking their heads….

I honestly believe that if we’re playing strong we can beat any team in the league on any night. Taking this one will be a huge push to punch our tourney ticket. Let’s get it!

We need this game.
Lose this and win Tuesday and we're 6-6.
Then @ marq & PC, most likely lose both. That's 6-8.
Even if we go 5-1 in the last 6, that's stil 11-9. Is that good enough to make the ncaa? Doubt it. We'd need one win in the B.E. Tounament.
If there's one slip up then probably 2 in the B.E Tourny.
Big big game on Saturday.

Bring Silly ! He’s going to be with Bamafan who needs a pic in 114 too !
Not going to say this is a must win because it's not. But after how flat we came out last night in what was a big game, we better at least play UCONN tough. No excuse not to, Clingan or no Clingan. PC gave them a competitive game at UCONN last night. For me, last night was most disappointing performance in league play to date
His numbers were not better at Iona was because he had Walter Clayton as his backcourt mate. That was the guy Pitino really wanted.
Can we count our halftime lead vs. Creighton in the BET before Covid cut second half?
Think Creighton might have been top 10-15
Gotta be the win over the GUG All Stars
CMA was a combined 6-22 vs. ranked teams.
Biggest wins by ranking would be @#3 Nova in 20/21 season and @#6 UConn last season. Only other top 10 win was v#10 Creighton in 19/20.
Only OOC ranked win was v#16 Arizona also his first year.
And having that legit perimeter threat shooting 30% from 3 makes me question if he is. You can't win in college hoops today when you don't have shooters and there is no reliable shooter on this team. Of guys shooting about 2 3s per game only GT is over 33% and the two top volume shooters are both at 30% with Dingle being the other. Steps up in comp have gotten to everyone's shooting from 3 as well as from the FT line where only Jenkins and Alleyne are near or above their impressive numbers from last year. Re another conversation last year DJ shot 3.34 FTs per game vs. 1.8 per game this year. Even getting to last year's rate would put him above someone like Kolek who has only shot just over 3 per game the last two years.
Boom!!! Best part was Andre berating the refs at halftime and he wasn't even dressed for the game.
Had a camel clutch reference this week in group chat. Always funny!
Every time Roamer posts I think of a young teenage mjmaherjr stunned at MSG seeing Bob Backlund lose the title to Iron in the camel clutch. mjmaherjr turned to wine coolers after losing that piece of his wrestling childhood fandom at 13Had a camel clutch reference this week in group chat. Always funny!
