Marco, what is the status of your prediction of Shamorie suspension? Is it still a possibility?

Would you like me to tell you why I posted this?

I think everybody knows why

Give it a few years. I'm sure he'll miss a class.

Not in that sweet Jaguar he's driving around

A little car envy on your part huh?

Nah. I'm still laughing about Ahmed's deal

I'm more interested in the deal they had to give Ali to get him back.  That must have been a doozy.

Per Zach B
Chris Mullin tells me Marcus LoVett's status uncertain for Sunday against Iona. Has a sprained left knee that has kept him out of last three games. Did some basketball stuff yesterday. #sjubb

I think that Much, Casimir, McGill, Crawford, and Zach Lewis can run with our guards. TK Egodi is also a interesting matchup against Marv, very similar skill sets and frames. Iona has a short bench, especially against supreme talent, however so do we. They are undersized, so are we.

They have 5 players averaging double figures in ppg and feature a roster that is a good mix of under and upperclassmen. These kids won't be intimidated, most of them have NCAA Tourney experience. Add in the local psyche to the game alongside how much Iona will come out wanting to upset us and I think that this could be a trap game.

Our players need to be keenly aware of these matchups and impose their will early or this can be a dangerous matchup quickly, LIUBK and Fordham losses in recent years come to mind. Iona has plenty of capable guards. Avoiding early foul trouble will be key, however much like the past 2-3X opponents in the NCAA Tourney under Cluess, its a bad matchup for him. Both teams like to push the ball and break out into transition. They both feast on turnovers. I think that our stars will ultimately outshine theirs. Close game nonetheless:

Gaels 77
Johnnies 88

With Trimble as the only guard off the bench, I truly think that the team needs Marcus back on Sunday. Iona has a very deep backcourt.

Nice writeup by Zags. I wasn't aware Cluess had that many siblings attend St. John's or that he lost two brothers.

Kentucky fans showed their nasty ways in that Iona game. They made a stink at the half because Iona played them tough, then wanted cats to lay it on when Iona wore down. Went to see SJU and Cats in the final. Of course that happend down the road. We all knew Cats got burned when Glover hit his fouls. Was great laughing while their fans squawked on the way out.

But if he doesn’t play, and Iona wins, we have a built in excuse.
