Just confirmed this was the worst loss ever for St. John's in a Big East game.

Wait a second, Lavin gelled his hair at halftime??
It was a bad loss so I was going to avoid the board for a day or two, but is this true??
At this point he's just trolling us. Theres no other explanation.

And when we beat them Friday night no one will give two sh*ts

I don't see us beating them they've demolished us twice this year and are averaging almost 100 a game vs us.
I am amazed that so many Lavinites are posting about this game as a personal revelation that , essentially, this game meant nothing and what a genius Lavin is for resting a Player, C0, who legitimately could have played.. Branch's injury might be another story.
This wasn't a 8 point loss, or a 18 point loss, it was 37 points, ladies and gentleman. This was a humiliation and, if you are truly a St John's fan and student of the game or, a Alum of the school, this is nothing, zero, nada, less than a disgrace.. A team with St JOHN'S UNIFORMS ON, GAVE UP 105 POINTS TO A BE Rival..
Make no mistake this NOVA TEAM IS EXCELLENT, ONE OF THE BEST TEAMS IN THE COUNTRY.
However, they are not the team of the Universe, which some of you are bestowing upon them. Again, you ignore the facts of what a disgraceful performance this team and COACH PUT FORTH YESTERDAY....
Over the course of his time here, Lavin has displayed a element of QUIT in the way he coaches this team, which is WHY i dislike him as a COACH! And, he transmits that negativity to his players on more than a few instances. Have you forgot the Robert Morris humiliation last year on our Home Court? Apparently so..
I am surprised that a Coach like Keady would suffer the indignity of a loss like this, as non plussed as Lavin did. The Keady of his Purdue days would have gotten 3 technicals and berated the refs, anything to fire up his team and prevent a beatdown like this..Lavin fixed his hair. Keady would have torn his comb over to shreds. HE ALSO WOULD HAVE PUT A SHOE UP THE ASS OF SOME OF THESE PLAYERS YESTERDAY. LAVIN DIDN'T ..
Coaching 101 tells you , if you are a Coach of any pride, you don't allow your team to lose as disgracefully as ours did yesterday.. You don't pull your players and put in SUBS who have no business on the floor in a league game, .. Lavin did and allowed everyone in the Country to see what a poor COACH and Competitor he is..
So you apologists for this COACH, nothing good came out of this game, like many in the Lavin era. He is not a NYORKER BY NATURE and seemingly, is quite able to stomach a debacle like yesterday and not be upset!
So, dream on people, throw yourself bouquets and write this off as just another unimportant game. It really was so much more and many here are too blind to see it.
SO, before many of you get all giggly about this season finishing 5th in the BE and, while we get a bid, barring another wipeout in the tourney, please revisit what this guy gives you and more importantly, what he is incapable of bringing..to St John's.

Last time I checked this was college basketball right...not life and death...I mean wow, what do you do when something really meaningful in life goes wrong?

Some folks wondered (probably, the one's who agreed with his tired narrative) why I would always place my proverbial foot knee-deep in his arse. I see (and, glad) other's are finally speaking up (he ticked Jack Williams off a couple months ago, and Jack saw where I was coming from).
He's been saying the same thing for 2 to 2 1/2 years. All of his posts are practically verbatim.

Actually I would have been really concerned had Jarvis ever gelled his head at hafltime, but are you guys frigging kidding me?
When it was clear we werent going to win, Lavin started saving bodies:
C Jones 15 mins
Amar 15 mins
JDR 9 mins
Felix 16 mins
Khadim 7 mins
Myles 6 mins
Lipscomb 6 mins
Obviously when those first 4 guys play so many minutes, we aren't even beating DePaul or Creighton. We have a 6 man rotation, and spot Amar or Balamou some time to burn minutes and keep guys out of foul trouble. Why is that so hard to comprehend? From the jump ball we didn't have a prayer with 2 guys out for the game.
In the grand scheme, we were 21-9 before this game and 21-10 after. Don't throw out the baby because of one bad loss.
Nova look like a Final 4 team; getting smashed by them on their home court without CO and JB was not unexpected or the disaster some would have you believe. Nova just beat Providence by 28, Seton Hall by 26. They have been SOLID all year. They are #4 and we are unranked for good reason. I am not happy that we got slapped around but at the end of the day it is but one loss.
What is more important to me is that (a) we came through with no more injuries (b) Branch and CO got some needed recuperation time (c) RJ23 continues to look good (d) D'Lo/PG4/Sir'D/RJ23 averaged only 31 mins and should be fresh (e) we will not be complacent and should be fired up when facing the Friars. That is only game that matters right now.

So if we play them Friday and they smack smack and smack us some more to the ground, we should just accept it because they are the #4 team and we are unranked. Well if that's the case then I guess SJU fans shouldn't give two shits about ever being good.
Afterall we are (as it looks) a fan base that accepts getting a beat down.
Ahhh yeah so what, I wonder what the excuse is when they smacked us in the last 10minutes when both Obekpa and Branch both played.
Ahhh yeah screw it, Villanova is #4 in the country, so we all should be happy and just accept it.

Ok... Please advise us what we can do as fans? Keep complaining ad nauseum about the same thing because it changes anything... Or just accept the fact that this year theyre the better team and hope that if we play them again that they are having an off night and we are clicking on all cylinders and can somehow pull out a win...
What good does bitching about the same exact thing over and over again accomplish... They lost.. Oh well... Let's beat Providence..
