First Round Matchup

Take care of omaha, i really want Kansas for two reasons, first to revenge the loss at the UBS arena a few years back and more importantly to embarrass that revered cocky asst coach they have who did more damage to St John’s basketball than any person in the universe. Beat Kansas stick it to the Norm enablers.

Norm lost consistently and was not head coaching material and if you see that as damage that is totally fair, but for me it was Jarvis who damaged the Program's integrity. He arrogantly cut ties with recruiting partners, used questionable practices, lost control of the players and put us in a position that necessitated us to look for principled leadership over coaching acumen for the hire after his tenure.

I'm a night owl in general, so I'm loving this.

I also don't expect this game to be competitive late (or even beyond early second half at the latest), so those who go to bed early shouldn't miss much.
 
with this late start time well at least I won't have a problem working remotely Thursday and Friday from the hotel

I agree with that 100 percent Jarvis is the man who ruined this program and he by far did the most damage.

I don’t buy this. It was SJU board of directors/Fr. Harrington who didn’t care or comprehend that bball is the brand of the university. Also it was not a good idea to fire Lavin for someone who had ZERO coaching experience. SJU is a case study on how to destroy a brand and hire the wrong people.
 
Never want to look past any team, but I think either Arkansas or Kansas is a tough matchup. Both have a really large big man clogging up the middle and both play 9 guys at least 12 minutes a game so could be tough to burn either team out. Arkansas seems like they are a big team too, but might be a little looser with the ball.

Again, don't want to look ahead but assuming we get to Saturday should be a fun one to watch. Hopefully Arkansas and Kansas wear eachother out along the way. Let's go Redstorm!!!! Can't wait until Thursday night!!!!!

They usually don't announce that until Thursday is done, I believe. They want to know the matchups first.

Providence is likely to be that Noon/2:30 national doubleheader, I believe, but stranger things have happened.
