Minnesota

After all these big wins the big east is gonna lose their winning streak because of DePaul/Lehigh

In a perfect world we would deport DePaul to division 3 where they belong and bring UConn back to the league. Never happening tough.
 
I hate listening to Big 10 announcers at our games. There were so many aggravating factors throughout the game, including the missed free throws and the total ref job on our home court. This counts as a very good win overall because of the lock down "D" and the seniors showing what seniors do.
 
Norm made some good adjustments. 1st getting out of that zone, which shut down their 3 ball! 2 pulling Branch for that horrible behind the back pass..
Nobody should leave the gym before hitting 20 foul shots

It's also a big OOC win which we didn't have last year. Will look good on the resume in March but a win over Zags would look better..... Agree on the refs they never give us a fair game especially at MSG.
 
Great individual plays, great move by coach switching to man to man . 4 up 4 down. Way to go taking care of business.
 
Why was Dakich the announcer taking so many shots at DLO.

He sounded completely clueless.

No idea. And then he didn't have the decency to compliment DLo on the hustle play and the "and one" 3 he got that won us this game.

That guy was a scumbag. Glad we are gonna only be on FS1 after Friday.

Stop; Dakich raved about the play - when it occurred and on replay. Dakich is a little too honest for fans who only want announcers to fawn over their team. I don't agree with his comments on Harrison myself but the man knows the game and is very honest and open.

Norm?
 
Thank god for switching to man 2 man. Hate the match up zone.
On to friday

Thank God (I always capitalize the "G" being a Catholic school kid), or can we maybe thank the coaching staff ... maybe?

Two years ago up a Cuse when Lavin was at his father's funeral DLo was causing trouble and Lavin eventually cut him. Dakich remembers that, and was not too hard on him and thought he had matured but still has s streak in him

We were on the line all game but the refs jobbed us? The refs were fine IMO. In a tough physical game fast paced game there are always going to be some bad calls. Having said that I agree this was a very good win. Within the same game one could see what this team could be and why we have not been that up to now. On to Friday and hopefully we put together 40 minutes. Overall excellent D in the 2nd half won it. Pointer and Harrison really hit the boards which obviously we need.

I'll be honest. If I was Monasch, at halftime I would have walked into the Minnesota locker room and offered Pitino a sweet deal to coach us next season. Lucky I'm not Monasch.

He wouldn't mention Harrison by name! He said good hustle by St. John's, he couldn't give him a credit cause he was dumping on him all day. I'm fine if you are honest and open but at least know what the hell you are talking about. He was going off of story lines at St. John's from when he did a game for them 2 years ago. He ignorance was baffling.
 
Worst Play of the Game: Pitino benching the best player of the game. WTF?

Dakich said the same thing, Mason was killing us. But he hates to critizice a coach's moves, unlike this board. :p
