[quote="SLYFOXX1968" post=298806][quote="MJDinkins" post=298558][quote="SLYFOXX1968" post=298557]It’s uncanny that before a Season that looks like possibly our best in maybe the last 20 or so Years that , the Mullin Coaching Ability issue continues to surface . This despite several off Season accomplishmemts that have likely doubled the talent level from 3 Quality Players to 6 or 7 and a decent caliber of good players from 7-10 , much more ability than last year . And , Hurley didn’t get Heron despite him being a Waterbury Local . He could have transferred anywhere on the East Coast but, choose our Program and Coach . Ditto Figueroa as a Juco AA . Having Dixon and Keita ready to play plus Trimble finally gives us a Roster with BE depth . I do think much of the commentary regarding Mullin might emanate from Scribes who edit this site and JJ and read the negative commentary that often dominates many posts from a 1/2 dozen or so constant users . It seems some don’t factor in the reality of last Season’s team of 3 Quality Players who beat a full squad of the National Champion Wildcats , minus Injured Paschall who still suited up 4 First round NBA picks . And ,how badly was Mullin outcoached by Coach K in our win over Number 4 Duke with 3 NBA first rounders ? Might we let this season start and get behind this Team that could win the BE regular Season title . Let the games begin and we will see .[/quote]
It was 3 first round picks, and Phil Booth also didn't play that night. How come you always mention the games versus Villavnova and Duke? I expect to compete with those schools. I didn't expect to beat either one last season, considering how we were playing, but I expect to compete with 'em, nonethless. We're not Wofford. You try to sway the audience with BS and manipulation.
Besides those two games against Villanova and Duke, respectively.... What about the other games on the schedule? I thought a season was viewed as a whole and not in a vacuum.[/quote]. Nova had 4 First round picks , I was right and you were wrong . Quality wins are quality wins . You are all BS all the time .[/quote]
Villanova had 3 first round picks, ignoramus.
Earlier this week, Villanova head coach Jay Wright made a succinct statement.
"We won (in 2017-18) because we had talented guys," said Wright. "I think that's been very clear as our guys went through this process."
On Thursday night a group of pivotal players from the Wildcats' 2018 NCAA national championship team heard their names called at the 2018 National Basketball Association Draft here at Barclays Center.
Julius Erving Award winner Mikal Bridges (Malvern, Pa.) was a lottery selection, chosen 10th by the Philadelphia 76ers, and was later traded to the Phoenix Sun.
2018 NCAA Final Four Most Outstanding Player Donte DiVincenzo was also selected in the first round, taken with the 17th overall pick by Milwaukee Bucks.
BIG EAST Freshman of the Year Omari Spellman went to the Atlanta Hawks with the 30th overall selection.
Consensus National Player of the Year Jalen Brunson was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks with the 33rd overall selection in the second round.

What was that again, stupid?
Who said those wasn't quality wins? I don't recall no one saying anything about those two wins not being quality. I only said, how come those are the only games that you mention? Those are outliers, as one poster mentioned. There were many other games on the schedule, ya know? You can't mention those games and exclude the others. That's disingenious and viewing things in a vacuum. But I wouldn't expect less from a clown like you.
