Game 14: #12 Butler, NYE Queens 730P/FS1

Comparing Norm and Mullin is laughable.

Yeah norm tried and he had a better big east record.

Norm inherited Showtime and Lamont Hamilton after their freshmen season. They both made all-conference in the old Big East. He was also immediately gifted a top 75 recruit from a high school teammate who played his best year’s in our home arena.

Praising Norm in any way is disgusting. He was awful.

Norm was awful. But even if you think he didn’t try. He still won more games then Chris Mullin.

So what.  Mullin danced in less years...and Norm didn't in more years.  Mullin a much better coach. Case closed.

You are a true buffoon. Norm Roberts was awful by every objective standard. He was 6-12 with roster of 11 juniors and a 5th year senior! That same roster went 12-6 sans Mase Jr.

Debating with an idiot is pointless. Congratulations on becoming the second poster I will ignore in 20 years.

How can you agree with carmine and praise the coach Chris mullin as a basketball genius. Then a few sentences later admit you watched him not coach his team?

I said I agreed with Carmine about what Mullins system was. I said that his system did not work here, because St. John's was not an NBA team and did not have the talent to run a system like an NBA team. He didn't coach the team, he complained to the refs and did not discipline any player after a poor decision or shot. His system is basically let the players do what they want with no reprecussions. That doesn't play at the college level.

Lunardi has butler as a 1 seed.

He also has as on the bubble (first 4 out) ... time to start winning

if today was selection sunday, we'd probably be in dayton like last year.  the arizona and west virgina wins currently look really good.  and only 4 losses, including two to tourney teams, doesn't hurt too much.  teams that are .500 against tourney teams and don't have terrible losses usually get in. 

staying .500 against tourney teams from here on out will be the difficult part.  If I was the coach I wouldn't change the rotation too much, except maybe to give a few more minutes (~5) to williams, and take them away from Caraher.  I'd also cut down on 3 point attempts -- none from anyone other than heron and figueroa; maybe williams if wide open.  missed 3s from the rest of the team basically eliminate our advantage in FGA.

I agree. Rutherford and Dunn can get to the basket. Their outsides shots are scary.
