“Raucous sold out crowd..” oh but expect for the fact that the upper deck is tarped off.

Tell me you don't understand basketball without telling me you don't understand basketball.

Richmond was 8/31 from the field and had an 83 ORtg. He was not a net positive today, despite the triple double.

8-32. Even worse.

8-32. Even worse.

We’d be thrilled if we had guys shooting 25%

Game is at Wells Fargo center. Lots if tickets available for U Conn fans. If game was at Nova on Campus arena I think they would have had a better chance

NY media getting a bit excited with the “must have” and “must win” tags.

Today wasn’t a must win for them, as Rick said nice moral victory despite the loss. Won’t affect the metrics outside of a lost opportunity as a Q1 win for them.

Wednesday versus Villanova is not a must win either.
Should, would be a nice win against a *likely* tournament team, but there’s like 12 games left for them and their metrics are solid for a bid at the moment.

Way too early in a long season to be calling “must wins” for a resurrected program like StJ with Rick at the helm

Completely side with McDermott. Part of Seton Halls game is to rachet up the physicality to where flagrants are not called. Somebody should do an analysis of opponent injuries against them.

It does the Big East no favors that player after player is getting injured before the tourney. Esp.when Seton Hall will easily get 20 fouls in the tourney as they call actual fouls once it starts.

[tower912]

UConn is good.

[WhiteTrash]

UConn is good.

Under-rated? 

[tower912]

Villanova locked in on defense.  Giving up 2 points in 13 possessions.

Pat Driscoll on the whistle!

  I think I saw that Shaka had Gold on Jenkins for the final shot   I thought that was brilliant as he had been hot from the 3. That must have had some effect on his shot

Really nice after game talk by Pitino.   He is building for the future, not afraid to say what he wants to say, and gave Marquette credit   Nice. Worth a listen for sure
