He has 8 teams in the Big East in which doesn't include Notre Dame or Marquette.

12 seed in the West.

I guess if we ever actually win a conference game he will have us in the final four

that guy must've stopped watching basketball on New Years Eve.

he actually has 9 teams in the field

St. John's (12-5, 2-3, RPI: 45, SOS: 32) got the two it needed at home over Cincinnati and DePaul. Now the Red Storm need to win some games in which they are clear underdogs. Wins over Temple, Georgia and Siena won't be enough to carry a mediocre league mark.

How different things would look if St. John's had won against Providence.  They'd be 3-2 going in against UConn, Nova, and Pitt.  And if they managed to even take 1 of those games, they'd be 4-4 going into the weaker part of their Big East schedule.

If I was a betting man, I'd say St. John's goes 5-8 from here on out and finishes with a Big East record of 7-11.  That would put them at 17-13 for the season as a whole and probably a repeat appearance in the CBI Tournament.  Any takers?

Providence game will come back to haunt us.

Well hopefully that's our one letdown game this year. Can't afford to have another one of those. Every year we seem to steal a game we shouldn't and drop an inexcusable one too.

Well if St. John's beat Cornell and held on against Georgetown they'd be top 15 in the country even if they lost to PC. Its crazy how fine of a line the difference between elite and mediocre is.

I really think we're gonna have to win 2 or 3 that we're not supposed to in order to get us to .500 in BE play and a shot at the Big Dance.
