Marquette alum and fellow BE fan.
Hooped on the Alumni Hall Gym floor and took a pic with Sr. Felipe Lopez.
Buddies went to SJU.
Our most beloved coach went to SJU as well.
RIP AL.

From LI - grew up a St. John's fan and went to and graduated from Marquette.  Live in NC now and have been paying more attention to the Johnnies since we joined the Big East.  Wish the Johnnies guys were Pitt the last 5 years.  Hard to root against the the team I rooted for as kid, wish we could play each other deeper into the tournament and not the first game for the 2nd year in a row.  Would like to see St. John's come back to consistently challenge in the top of the Big East.  It can be done - some real lean years in Marquette's past after the power teams of the 70's.  Good luck tomorrow and I look forward to visiting here and keeping up with whats happening with SJU.

Hello,

My name is Troy and i've been looking for a college basketball team to love for a few years (i'm 19). I've looked at pretty much every team there is and there just wasn't an instant passion for any team.

I very rarely hear or see anything about St. John's so I never really gave them a chance and I don't know much about the current team or the history behind the team but since they're close to home and just fired Norm Roberts I figured this was a great opportunity to give them a chance and start while the team is getting a fresh start. I also like the fact that St. John's isn't a top team right now, I hate seeming like a front runner.

I'm just hoping to learn from people here and see if I can develope a passion for the team. Thank you.

i am manbearpig and i love st john's hoops. i desperately want them to become a consistent top big east program. nothin makes me more upset then garden full of fans of the other team, or hearing a bunch of yuppies talk about how they cant believe their mid major program just beat a big east team n we are that team. i hope a new coach can bring fans to the seats which will hopefully restore the glory days ive heard so much about.

I'm a pharmacy student at STJ. I was hoping we would get Paul Hewitt, but now we will probably get some second rate bozo from a mid major that's similar to Norm and be screwed for 5-6 more years.

Old School NYC guy who wandered over from Redmen.com to see what the commotion was coming out of this new "jungle".  Very involved with student-athlete "issues" here in metro NY/NJ & nationally.Will check in from time to time & will hopefully be informative & thoughtful with my commentary.

GREAT that you have lots of students & recent grads involved. Hopefully you'll motivate more people to come to the games at Carnessecca & MSG & turn it into a REAL Jungle for the opposition. THINK Cameron Crazies with out the jumping up & down!!!

Hey guys, I attended SJU from 2004-2006 then transferred back home to finish my Masters.  Did not miss a single home game and even traveled down to Duke while I attended SJU.  An old Duke fan, but completely tranformed into an SJU fan.  I also coach girls high school varsity basketball.
