Man. This was one of the best wins in years. Early enough in the season that it really, really matters. Signature win.

Posh Alexander absolutely embarrassed Colin Gillispe all night long.
What to say?
-Posh is our floor general and was absolutely outstanding!! He won' the rookie of the year trophy tonight. It's done.
- Dunn didn't have a great game and is very limited, but he's still a huge asset on defense and as a ball handler. I'd love to have him back next year despite his limitations. He has some huge strengths and he still helped us win.
- Wusu playing like a senior. I'm sad to see GWill tweak his back again because he was playing well, but we don't lose much with Wusu and maybe even gain. He's beyond his years.
- They keyed on Champs and he started a bit rough, but he's sooo ice cold and when called on seals it. Double double in a "bad" game.
- Cole is really starting to step up. One of his better games against real competition. He's becoming almost automatic.
- Earlington didn't play a ton but bud his shots. Answered the call.
-Josh Robert's did his thing. Grabbed boards and was tough.
-Moore also played well. He's got amazing vertical for rebounds and I haven't seen a player in the big East that can put rebound him on our offensive glass. Still tightening things up but he's sooo long.
Maybe the best 40 minute defensive effort I've ever seen SJU play. True man-defense. Very little double and we recovered and rotated on almost all but maybe 5-8 shots. Incredible defense that totally took Nova out of their game. It wasn't Nova playing poorly, as I said for they only played 6 games and they weren't ready to see this type of pressure game. They've been resting and we've been hunting.
Another note, our unheralded offense is second best in the Big East. How you like them apples?!?!? When our defense matches our offense, we eat Number 3's for breakfast! Great game!

Beating NOVA and Marquette and UCONN are all indicators that we haven't been lucky, we have been good and getting better.

Haha no disrespect taken at all. Everything happens for a reason, I'll always be an Arkansas fan, but Nolan Richardson's 40 MOH is what I grew up on, that's my childhood, my high school basketball coach ran a similar system, I love the playstyle, and Mike's a stand-up guy always repped our state well, happy for him here at St. John's, huge win, and this team is so much fun to watch!Sju grad 13" post=416847 said:
