Now is the time to get White some minutes. Probably going to need him at some point this year

I don't think White is healthy.  I could be wrong but I have't seen him dressed since before the holidays.

Ah,wonder who the 8th man is?

Great.

 Back to the Sky if Falling threads tomorrow.

Well I for one didn't think St. John's was going to win this one. However they proved me wrong in the first half that they are just as every bit talented.

Id like to see Pointer post up

Yeah...that first half showed just how talented this team is.  The 2nd half showed how terrible we are without Harrison.

  agreed. We are dead if we get in foul trouble.

 At this point i would at least like to see the team at least stop them from dunking.

are guys dont show any shame. thats for sure

Ya can't stand the dunks. Get moe out,let's escape without injury

Could be worse, look at Pitt

Cmon Dunlap,empty the bench

garret shot that one with confidence. And it went right in

dont know if we have 5 walkons

The problem is how does St. John's score when Harrison is not in the game?

They were unable to get anything in the paint with GG or Moe

I'm sure Ill Will already brought this up, but we should fire Lavin and Dunlap. We can keep Rico, Mo, and Lavins wife as our coaches, but they must have at least 10 2012 recruits in tow with no academic issues. But seriously it is a different game without Harrison. I love Mo but without D'Angelo we have problems. When we have more bodies next year we will make some noise. but we already knew it would be a rough season this year. We will upset a couple of teams but overall its a learning year

Gift did not sit either. That has to hurt. A big man needs a blow every so often to keep him fresh

I have confidence Lavin will bring in some reinforcements

Please verbal Christopher Obekpa ASAP

 Verbals don't mean jack, as we have learned.  What's even the point of those?

Is the kid from Roosevelt that much worse then stith, at least he is taller

I hear you, but have you created a new way to go about the recruiting process

Just a disgusting game to watch in the 2nd half.

- Inexcusable, careless play that led to every turnover. No excuses for such ineptitude
- This team proved today that besides Harrison NO ONE can shoot when we need a bucket. What happened to an explosive offense? Unless we are running and gunning at the rim, we can't score. Harkless did jack shit, why can't he seem to step up when we need him? Besides the Providence game, he has been MIA in crunch time.
- God's Gift had his best overall performance in that first half.
- Harrison picking up 5 fouls with 9 or so minutes left in the 2nd half is ridiculous, I didn't agree with all 5, but he has to be smarter and pick his spots, he's too valuable.
- Where is Amir Garrett's offense? It's one thing to not know certain plays but this guy all he has done when he gets the ball is stutter step with his left foot and stop dribbling. Pointer can't score unless its a dunk or layup, Greene couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat, and Stith still has the ugliest jump shot in college basketball. Too many of these trends seem to be leaking over into each game.
- Here come all the comments of growing pains...yea that's fine and dandy I didn't expect a ton out of this squad but it's been SO DAMN UGLY.
- last but not least, Mike Dunlap is a dunce. He's proved over and over that he can't be a head coach, he didn't make any adjustments in the 2nd half. Marquette opened up with at 9-0 run and he did nothing to change the flow or get us some baskets, no set plays, just a horrific coaching display.

Pinstripes...step away from the computer and take a deep breath. It's gonna be okay.
