going with my son and wife, my wifes first game since the hatten years lol
Lawmanfan can refer you to good lawyer in case your wife wants to divorce you monday :)
 
Have to say Goff is trying for sure, white out night, Ipads, ect. He just got here but is trying to get people excited.

He appears creative, hard working and has a vision which has been lacking for years.

As a season ticket holder, I got a call from him on Friday and a voice mail thanking me for my continued support and saying he hoped to see me on Sunday night at the Garden. It was an automated call, but still a nice gesture.
 
Heading in tomorrow , bought a mini plan for me and my son first game of the 4 game plan-- I noticed they haven't even sold seats for the 200's sections-- maybe 7,000 at best?
 
There was 8,000 for game between Rutgers and Wisconsin with upper bowl closed. It seemed loud on TV.
Hopefully we can do around that number.

6pm game I believe is due to Fox having Villanova & Virginia at 12:30 and then a PAC 12 game at 3pm

I still would have liked to have this game on campus as we would have a true home court advantage same with Marquette Wednesday. I love playing at MSG and prefer it even coming from Long Island but until we are drawing we should be smart about the days and times we play at MSG.

Recruit list for St. John's now at 23.Christ the King sophomore Kofi Cockburn and St. Benedict's Prep's Noah Farrakhan added to list. #sjubb
 
Disagree. We should not give an inch, lest MSG finds some other willing school/team to call it their home court. Already we saw Big10 games yesterday, and other conferences coming into NYC at MSG and Barclays. WE are NY's team, and no one should forget that.

No mention of Sumner not playing in the article?

According to this Xavier blog, Sumner will play, but still hurting.

.@XavierMBB faces St. John's at 6 p.m. tonight at MSG. The Musketeers need this road win badly. Notebook:
 
My two tickets for Sunday night's game are available. If interested, please pm me.

Sorry all, but my tickets are no longer available.

My neighbor had extra tickets to tonight's game, so I'm willing to give up Tony's two tickets so that they don't go to waste. PM me if interested.

Agree with that as well. It is demoralizing for kids however when we have 14,000 open seats in the arena. I am juts looking at it for the kids. As always I much prefer MSG. However if we only have 4 or 5 thousand people coming to MSG for a game they will eventually look for other acts. Remember this is a business for them.

Hopefully our new AD continues to engage fans and try to increase the amount of people coming to games. I always show up so hopefully a lot of others do the next two games.

The thing is I don't remember reading too many quotes from kids about it being their dream to play in Carnesseca Arena. If I was a kid I'd rather play in front of a third filled MSG than a full CA.

I hear you about the dream but our crowds at home this season have been great while they are disappointing at MSG. The kids have said the crowd at CA excites them and becomes the sixth man. Seems we need every advantage possible at this point in time. I too am in favour of more games on campus until we can drastically increase our attendance.
