WVU game

...may decide if we get into the BET or not.  How about putting our "disappointment" aside and coming out to support the team.  A relatively full and noisy MSG would be a great way to end our season--win or lose.  If nothing else, the kids deserve it.

huggins will destroy us and make a mockery with our team.   he's going to try and impress NYC recruits like crazy.

Does that mean you won't be there?

unless i get free tix probably not.

Their motivation will be trying to get into the NCAA tourney not to impress recruits.

obviously.  my point is though they'll already be up by like 15 points with 5:00 to go and huggins will make it ugly instead of calling off the dogs.

this will definitely be a tough game, hopefully we come out fighting and play hard for forty minutes

i agree 110% with you...i feel like the team has shown some improvement the last few games, even in the losses, and while i know everyone is upset norm is returning, its done and over with, so not attending that game will not send a message to get rid of him after the season is over...everyone show up and get a decent turnout and make it an actual home court advantage!!!!!

What has WVU done to make you even think this? They don't have any dominating players nor do they have a lot of size. They are a solid group of players who play well together and play smart no doubt but they've also gotten embarrassed a few times this year. I'm not saying we are as good of a team as them but there is no reason we can't beat them either especially if the prize is there for the taking for us. What has Huggins done? He openly admitted he wasn't even instilling an offense for this team and was just letting them go out on the floor and play.

they beat marquette by 15, syracuse by 20, south florida by 17, rutgers by 18, seton hall by 21, and providence by 27.

they lost to ND by 13, Cincinnati by 23, Villanova by 22....they are a good team but they aren't a dominant one.

but they can be dominant. 

but they can be dominant. 

Than that statement could apply for any team in the country.

Teams A,B,C

A beats B
B beats C
C beats A

We've seen this scenario play out so many times this season that any team can beat any team on any given night.

No nor does it have any relevance to the outcome of the upcoming game. Tomorrow is a new day for every team in America and every game starts 0-0 on the scoreboard.

By prize, you mean making the Big East Tournament.
Huggins has brought defense, physicality, and toughness to a finesse program.
His team is in the top 30 in both offensve and defensive efficiency.
In contrast, St. John's is 230 in offensive efficiency and 52 in defensive efficiency.

I'm not comparing the two teams...WVU is a better team....can we beat them?....sure its possible.

You are correct by prize I mean BET. Realistically at this point in the season that is our only attainable prize so why not strive for it.
