It's a ridiculous thing to say and taints the whole bit.
A similar thing to say is that St. John's beat the crap out of the preseason KenPom #47 team by 24 points, which could have been much if not foul actual foul trouble and perceived foul trouble (slick rick is criminal when it comes to auto-subbing guys with two fouls in the first half).

It let our guys at least get a half of non garbage time minutes.Yes. Yes it was. A microcosm. A good play, good hustle, everything the way it was designed. Doink, doink, doink.
I thought each of the young guys had some decent stretches. Caedin a few good possessions on both ends, etc. Though, I'm not confident the growth trajectory of this group will come close to exceeding the reload level of our competition on a year to year basis. It was frustrating when Parham, Owens, and Phillips all missed a layup in the span of 2 seconds.

The Washington Wizards, not the Marquette Golden Eagles of 2025-26.

The surest way to lose a player to the portal would be to try and hide him. The surest way to have a losing culture is to not try your best to win.
Enough people knew how good he was before the year even started. We need to sell him our vision and pony up what is necessary.

This is the mother of all dumpster fires. I've put the rest f my season tickets up for sale....including the assistant coaching staff. Need new eyes, new influencers.

UConn and St. John's are locks. Nova and Seton Hall are looking like near locks. Creighton? We'll see.
Fortunately (or unfortunately), the gap between the top and bottom is so wide that there should be few upsets of the top teams as the season goes forward.
