Everyone sitting on our section was shocked. Anderson should have kicked him off the team after the last issue with him . Time to move on.

I predicted (and got dragged) that Posh would transfer. Little did I know Curbelo would be so bad...

No one here would have a problem with Curbelo eating popcorn on the sidelines if he was averaging 20, shooting 40% from 3 and not turning the ball over or throwing tantrums. When your play is subpar and your coach makes you a DNP, maybe it's time to stop reinforcing what everyone already believes. Looking back at the Seton Hall game, Ndefo intentionally bumped Curbelo, possibly looking for the reaction he got. I think he may have done it to Storr too, who simply walked away like nothing happened. Not a good look when your freshman has more self control than your junior PG.
You're absolutely right. I was 11 and have such little kid memories of being at the garden for the big SJU games of that era. They certainly blur!
Not directed at you Ray. Maybe the "we really need scapegoats" crowd should arrange a concussion producing event for Storr. My understanding is that Curbelo's sophomore decline at Illinois was concussion related and that there was a second event while at St. John's. Did a quick look (general search, not pub med) and found the following:
From Wikipedia
In the past, the term PCS was also used to refer to immediate physical symptoms or post-concussive symptoms following a minor TBI or concussion.[13] The severity of these symptoms typically decreases rapidly.[14] In addition, the nature of the symptoms may change over time: acute symptoms are most commonly of a physical nature, while persisting symptoms tend to be predominantly psychological.[15][16] Symptoms such as noise sensitivity, problems with concentration and memory, irritability, depression, and anxiety may be called 'late symptoms' because they generally do not occur immediately after the injury, but rather in the days or weeks after the injury.[13] Nausea and drowsiness commonly occur acutely following concussion. Headache and dizziness occur immediately after the injury, but also can be long lasting.[13]
The condition is associated with a wide range of non-specific symptoms: physical, such as headache; cognitive, such as difficulty concentrating; and emotional and behavioral, such as irritability. Many of the symptoms associated with PCS are common or may be exacerbated by other disorders, so there is considerable risk of misdiagnosis. Headaches that occur after a concussion may feel like migraine headaches or tension-type headaches. Most headaches are tension-type headaches, which may be associated with a neck injury that occurred at the same time of the head injury
Seriously dude, how many times and on how many different threads have you posted about predicting that Posh might transfer due to Cubello and taking heat for it from members on this site? Give it a rest at least until it actually (and hopefully won’t) happens.
While there were some who thought Posh and Andre playing together on the court would not work out, I don’t think anyone thought it would be this BAD!!!!
I am not happy with that prediction since it is clearly going to be wrong at this point. The funny part was I thought Curbelo would be good enough to force Posh to the bench....oops.

I agree, I just don’t give Cragg credit for being able to accomplish anything positive. When it comes to the hoops program he’s made it a shit show. From a flawed coaching search, an unnessary extended contract, a lousy OOC schedule and foolishly believing that silly half time shows will fill the seats.
