To win without Posh and down 11 at the half....that’s a wow win as far as I’m concerned. Kudos, fellas, great job stepping up Dunn. 



Wow! After that poor performance in the first half who would have expected the turn around.  Talk about the "walking dead." 
Still love Moore's game, has an eye for the ball.  10 points, 11 boards and 3 assists. 
Thought a key to this win was holding Duke to 3 points in second half and Horecher to 2 points.
Love Wusu' s energy but has to clean up his turnovers.
Can't believe we outrebounded the Friars - 43 to 33.
Excellent combo guard play by Dunn, couldn't have won without him tonight.
We have the give and go pass down pat. Nice coaching.

What a great game. I'm impressed how strongly the Johnnies pulled together in the 2nd half. They found a way to play and win without one of their most important players.
Congratulations to the Johnnies.
 
 
Great effort, great comeback. For a team that was projected to finish 9th in the Big East, we're holding our own. Future looking bright!
 
Rock solid win and comeback. Hope we have our mojo back after that 2nd half. Dunn is so good driving all the way to the basket and finishing. He needs to attack like that and not settle for the jumpshot. But man, he delivered from long today. So we live and die by Dunn. Smart move by CMA to triple and collapse on Watson. He was killing us down low. Cole needs to get better at finding a body and boxing out. He gets caught gawking at the ball too much. Great win. Providence always seem to derail us.

and our only win before a sold out standing room only crowd. What a difference home court makes. 



Right on North. Even Lappas mentionedthat while coaching at Nova he always looked at the schedule hoping he was playing us at the garden.

Already been mentioned.... but how nice was it to hear Wally state that this is now a Program that will draw good recruits- a system that good players will want to play in. 

Icing on the cake of a great comeback.

Why did this video bring me so much joy?  Ed Cooley is so annoying.




He did give the Johnnies credit though. I thought he should have taken some blame as well.

In the interview they asked Cooley what he thought about what happened in the Creighton locker room during halftime on Saturday. What Happened?
Mcdermott made some insensitive comments about everyone staying on the plantation. Not a good look

Actually he did-he said this loss was on him and he needs to do a better job. Thanks for making me sound like I'm defending Ed Cooley. /media/kunena/emoticons/sad.png

It was a condesending, it's on him.  He threw his players under the bus first, then came back around to it's on him.  Cooley likes to whine and complain alot, but facts are he's underachieved with the bunch he has.  David Duke is a projected first round pick, and he has senior leadership on this team, this should be without a doubt a tournament team, and they just haven't lived up to expectations, that's 100% on Cooley.
 
Glad for Dunn and the team,it was a needed game and they stepped up. Still questions if  Posh will be able to play next game and  if he does can he be his usual self without hurting himself more
 
In all honesty, when I turned on the TV and heard that Posh wasn't able to play, my heart sank. I didn't think we had much of a chance to win without him, especially given how we have played lately. Our performance in the first half only reinforced my fears.

The second half of the game might be the best half of basketball our team has played all season. CMA should bottle his halftime speech. The team came out on fire with the energy, enthusiasm and grit that they have displayed when they were on the hot streak. Dunn and Moore were especially outstanding, but everybody that played contributed in a big way. I was so loud in my "man cave" that my wife closed my door so she wouldn't hear me go nuts.

If we can continue to play the way we did in the second half, we have the ability to beat Seton Hall, earn the first round bye and make some noise in the Big East tournament. Great win, guys!!

GO JOHNNIES!!!
 
Does Szczerbiak have kids? The way he was talking about the program, maybe he could steer them towards SJU.

It could start a trend of the offspring of former players from the area who were recruited but did not come here. Try anything, because we have struck out with every former player's son.
