You have got to give Mullin and staff credit for never losing this team. Would have been very easy for that to happen. 0-11 in the Big East, but beat #4 in the nation, and now up 9 on #1 with 5 and a half to go.
Regardless of how this game turns out, this 3-game stretch will make us better, IMO.
Where as I thought we crushed Dook and was much the better team, I feel we got a little lucky at Nova in all places. I'm not taking anything away from our boys and their Awesome win, I'm just saying we benefited from the following things:
1. Big East style of play. We do better when there aren't acc fouls every two seconds.
2. Paschall out. He's a bruiser. It's nice we didn't have to deal with them.
3. Some of their shots were just a hair off.

This guys don't give up! Ponds is a superstar and an all time St. John's GREAT.
Steve Lappas is a weasel and a terrible announcer.
