Big East Conference Results/ NCAA/NIT/CBI

[Its DJOver]

Depaul should go back to irrelevance next season.  Reed and Butz are the only good players that return.  Though Carte'Are Gordon should be eligible by Big East season, and he should be a nice boost. Hall should take a step back without Powell.  Those two should be the bottom dwellers next season, hopefully below 5 wins each.

Powell is only a Junior, is he appearing on mock drafts?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Seton Hall has only one senior and it ain't Powell. They bring in a nice transfer from Florida State. Assuming no surprise defections,  they'll be pretty good next season.

DePaul will be down again but bring in two good transfers and a great recruiting class (by their standards). Is the spring giant waking up?

[Shooter McGavin]

Boston
There are pieces, just not enough. I think a Bo Ryan type coach could make these guys a top twenty team.

I agree a hall of fame type coach probably would have done better with this group by one or two wins and we would be solidly in the top 20 instead of 23.

Yah just a brain fart, was thinking Powell was a senior for a second.  Thanks for correcting.

Hall should take a step back without Powell.  Those two should be the bottom dwellers next season, hopefully below 5 wins each.

Gordon will be eligible sooner for DePaul. They are on the quarter system and he enrolled in winter quarter . DePaul announced he will be eligible in November after the end of the fall quarter. So he will only miss a handful of games .

Cooley & Company on a run.

[Herman Cain]

Cooley & Company with a big win.

Let's see what DePaul can do against The Johnnies.

[Herman Cain]

The Johnnies have the crowd going for them tonight. Nice stage for DePaul to make a statement win.

If The Redman win tonight it will be a very hostile environment for MU tomorrow.

The Johnnies up 24-19 with 7:27 left first half.

[Spaniel with a Short Tail]

HC, are you there? Curious about how many Johnnies fans are there and if it will be an away game for us tomorrow.

[Miss Katie’s]

I'm at MSG, and it will definitely be a road game if playing St. John's.  Large and vocal Johnnies crowd tonight which will undoubtedly increase tomorrow.

Yup, it was a good St John's crowd tonight. But they are obviously excited, and I'm guessing more will show tomorrow

[wade_county37]

Bring on the Johnnies! Im having a good feeling for tomorrow. Although I'm currently at .500 with my good feelings. 

[Oregon Warrior]

If we beat St. John's on their home court, after losing to them twice in the regular season, some goodwill will be regained by the fans and the team should gain some confidence.

If we lose, watch the mushroom cloud rise above MU Scoop.

Go Warriors!

[Herman Cain]

I am going Friday. 

Johnnie Fans will pick up tickets from the losing teams last night and will be out in full force tonight.

[MU82]

ACC tourney is in Charlotte and I'm going to today's afternoon session with a couple of fellow MU alums. So I'll see Buzz's Boyz take on Fla State and Virginia vs NC State.

Afterward, we'll probably go to a bar and watch the Warriors play -- although with UNC and Duke both playing tonight, we'll probably have to beg to get a TV turned onto our game!

Would think that it'd take a pretty big blowout to drop PC below 75 now.  Go Gtown, go X.  Pretty amazing that in a down year, 90% of the conference could be top 75 NET.

[PGsHeroes32]

Still an extreme outside chance BE ends up with 6 bids if these games all go perfectly

Of course that wouldn't be perfect for us because it means we don't win this tourney.

Nova beats PC.

Creighton beats X.

Gtown beats Hall.

SJU beats MU.

Nova, MU, Hall, Creighton, SJU and Gtown should all get in.  Maybe even all avoid Dayton.

Nova up 2 over Cooley & Company. 3:07 left first

I think we can win our game tonight and nova could lose today and this still be fine.

But yeah 6 is dependent on Georgetown winning our side of bracket

I think SJU is probably in with a loss tonight as well, but man, I wouldn't feel great if I were them in that situation.

I think Creighton needs to beat Nova.  I don't know if a wins over X and PC would be enough.  But it would be really close.
