I think that ship has sailed.

more importantly when Luis figures it out.

 

[ripken72]

How far are we from being ranked?

 

[passitback]

Take two: Big time win today, boys!

Double digits!!!

 

[ADORAZ]

How far are we from being ranked?

Possibly in one week if we beat Providence and Creighton, especially if one of them is ranked to increase visibility.

Creighton is #27 and currently up on #23 PC, so they should be ranked when we play them.

How far are we from being ranked?

This win took us to #35 on Kenpom. I think if we win 2 of the next three we're probably talking about being ranked.

Soriano may be the anchor, but Pitino has built a pretty well rounded team here. Rounding out nicely.

Showed toughness and growing and quality depth. Zubys block was the highlight play of the game and effctively told Nova “Now yous can’t leave”.

Winning on the road this year in the Big East is tough. Just ask UConn, Marquette, etc…
Huge win, serve broken in a tough environment.

Don't hate this question but was the team better today w/o Ledlum?

I think the challenge is that you can't have Jenkins. Luis and ledlum on the floor at the same time. Because the ball will just stop moving every time down the court. CRP Wants to see the ball moving as much as possible. So i'm sure he finds that frustrating, but he's finding ways around it. And brady obviously makes the defense provide more space since they have to obviously be aware of him at all times.

[sjc88]

nah.
Ledlum is a key piece of this team.

Ledlum gives us some toughness and depth.

We have played stupid basket ball down the stretch of this game .
Needles fouling , poor free shooting , etc

But , a great win !

Noted same thing…Looked like Pitino lit into RJ for the highlight dunk miss. I am sure he will be working to clean up some sloppy stuff.

 

[Section3]

HUGE win.

I also don’t think it was a fluke. We looked just as talented, if not more talented, than them.

ABSOLUTELY

 

[passitback]

PIB gives us some toughness and depth.

Quiet as kept, that's exactly what the ladies said about me back in high school.

Rick will figure it out. Evidence of that is pretty clear at this point.

I think looking back an hour the matchup was better without Ledlum today. It’s going to be different with other teams

Very true nova is not a very big team in the frontcourt.

 

[mjmaherjr]

And F worry about matchups anyway. We have Rick Fucking Pitino let other teams worry about matching up with us !

 

[SJUWillRockNYC]

Having gone to Michigan and Boston College games, it’s truly amazing to see the teams growth. Pitino is the real deal

lol You gotta say he's the real deal?
He's in the HOF, that alone lets everyone know that he's the real deal.

 

[paultzman]

In the area of little things that help at key moments, but get lost, I thought Beast’s guy Zuby in first half in his few minutes held the fort banging, blocking a couple and defending. Well done big guy!
