As I said many times before Marquette can't shoot the ball. Play zone against them, overplay Thomas, their only three point threat.
Their biggies did zelch against us.

Looking at the contenders in the Big East outside of a collapse of one of the teams for the NCAA's
we are looking at all 9 and 9 or 10 and 8 teams. It starts tonight with a huge game Gtown @ Marquette.
This will get the ball rolling. If Hoya's win then they get Creighton to help their resume.
Huge game for Johnnie's tomorrow which will set us up for what is to be.

Yes indeed, and dare I say it. Oh, what the heck, I will. A lot of it is due to Lavin. (ducking)
Best post I've read in some time. I'd add to pressure them all game because they have one of the worst collective handles in the conference and and are very mistake-prone.
If we are even a bubble team this shouldn't be all that difficult. If we can't beat Marquette in a very bad down year with so much riding on it, what chance do we have going in the road a few weeks late away from home in the tournament? Huge RPI game for us.
You hate Marquette.
Any post where you mention them needs to be taken with a grain of salt
Hahaha I don't...just this year. Mayo and Jamil Wilson are Domesque. Very low IQ guys. I think the world of Buzz Williams and I was a big fan of the backcourt the last few years. I am probably Junior Cadougan's biggest/only fan. They'll be back big next year so we need to capitalize now.
The team I hate is Nebraska. I don't even know why, but it makes me sick to see them above us in the RPI and them drawing over 15k every game. I refuse to accept them as a Big Ten school.
Creighton needs to stomp them the next few years to maintain top team in that region.

I actually dont think derrick willson is any worse than Junior Cadougan. Every time I see him he is making plays. Now he cant shoot a lick, but he can defend, finish, and pass.

His shooting kills his team. Boothe at his worst was a better shooter. Cadougan just had all the intangibles. He never put up big stats, but he was smart, crafty, tough, and clutch. I can't believe he didn't get a look in the NBA... I would have spent a late second rounder on him.
Who will be the bigges star at MSG tomorrow night? Why, the ref who tossed Jim Boeheim, of course (Lavin and the team also menitoned in a bullet further down in this article):

Meanwhile, Greene will be back to work Tuesday night at St. John's. Ideally, he'd like to enter the building unnoticed and leave the same way. He may get back to that point eventually, but it's going to take a while. Like the man said: It's all part of the job.

Really interesting. He hasn't reffed an SJU game in a long long time. In fact he's not even known really as BE ref. More ACC and SEC based.

From the same article, here's Seth's prediciton:
Xavier at St. John's, Tuesday, 7 p.m., Fox Sports 1
This game is mighty bubblicious. Xavier seemed to have righted its ship before getting its doors blown off at Georgetown on Saturday. As I noted above, this is the start of a brutal four-game finish for the Musketeers. St. John's is a much improved, more mature team than it was a month ago. Plus, the Red Storm will welcome back senior forward Orlando Sanchez, who missed the Villanova game to attend to the birth of his daughter.
St. John's 70, Xavier 59

I wonder why he's doing a BE game? I thought he NCAA preferred to keep refs in the same league, or two.
@StJohnsBBall: .@SJUCoachLavin said Rysheed Jordan in Phil today for the viewing of a close relative who passed away. Jordan will rejoin #sjubb tonight.
@StJohnsBBall: Lavin & Jordan will meet, assess "right thing to do" for Xavier. "Difficult time" for a young man who has experience so much loss. #sjubb
