Very sad to say that with 6 conference games remaining I refuse to allow myself to be optimistic today.
I will go today. I will root in a lifeless UBS arena.
If we lose, the next meaningless bar will be a 10-10 finish in conference, which will not be likely unless we beat SHU at home.
Wait till next year is the lament of losers, the rallying cry for Mets fans.
If Shanley was a genius and savior for spending $20 million of university endowment to guarantee Rick after signing off and likely advocating on Anderson's extension, does he look less like a GOAT president, or the goat in the old fashioned sense of the word. Let's not forget the huge spend on NIL this year.
Not knocking Pitino, but we will spend the off-season lamenting whether the roster he inherited needed teaks and not an overhaul, and whether what came in the door wasn't as good as what went out.
Life as an SJU fan, where winning always seems harder for us than anyone else - even when the university spends on a HOF coach and generous alums and fans pay the players hefty sums.
