Game 19: @Butler (4:30 FOX)

To beat Butler? With our roster if this isn’t a testament of our staff I don’t know what is.

I just want some of ya'll to know you're mental. As long as you know.

15-4, 3-4 and jumping off the ledge is funny. This game and DePaul hurt a lot but a chill pill and some perspective is needed. Enjoy your Saturday night. Get some fresh air.

I'm not sure anyone is jumping off a ledge. But surely you can see, with our OOC schedule, and the Big East not being as strong as it usually is, we need to do better than .500 in conference play to make the tournament. A 3-4 start in conference play, with a loss to DePaul at home, makes that a tall task.

Its the middle of f***ing January. We shouldnt be figuring anything out by this point. At some point, you are what you are. And what we are is a talented but not very well coached team.

There is literally a dude talking about hiring Rick Pitino when he knows there is no budget at St Johns for strippers and hookers when they barely pay my moms.

Also again, plenty of wins out there to be had. They are a good team that came out flat and couldn't catch up. That was today. You flush it like D'Angelo used to say and get ready for a week from now with GTown at home.

Okay fair on the Pitino guy. But there is clearly a cause for concern here. This team is too talented to be 3-4 in conference. And it's clear, even in our loses, that we are the more talented team. That's coaching. Our OOC schedule made it so that we did not have much margin for error in conference play. We have put ourselves in a spot where we pretty much have to go 7-4 the rest of the way to be a right side of the bubble team. People have a right to not be all that optimistic.

Why didn’t Matt A. Recruit Ty Jerome?

Are you serious? You don’t think Pitino would be successful here with our budget? That’s crazy talk, we have shown that we can bring in the talent. We just haven’t been able to combine the talent with a coach.

I'll give you a pass on this one...but know that I could have thrown it down like Zion. 😆

Butler played very well. They hit some great shots. We missed at least 15 layupsnand wide open threes. It's not always coaching when we lose. Jesus Christ. This is why it's hard for teams to win on the road.

That ref that called the tech either needs to be let go or he needs a warning. There should be no tolerance for egos from grow men in a college game. LJ didn't do anything all game to deserve a short whistle. He was upset over a close or blown call what sense does it makes to tack on a tech to a call that went against the team? Warn him. Do it demonstrably if you have to.
