On a related note...why we weren't after some of these freshmen that SH secured is beyond me...Realize that they bartered to get Sina (soph), Delgado and Whitehead/Rodriguez but surprised we weren't more active going after Carrington...he looks like a good player
They didn't barter to get Sina - anyone who says he went to SHU because of Fred Hill has no idea what they are talking about.
Well...he got hired from Northwestern and Sina changed his commit from Northwestern...find it hard to believe that there was no connection...Regardless...their top recruits were all a function of bartering

Let me just say up front I believe Seton Hall was the better team and deserved to win.

With that said, someone needs to put Jim Burr out to pasture. Dude is a joke.

It's disappointing, but SH is 11-2 with the #26 RPI and look very much like a legit tournament team. It's not the type of team you walk and beat often on the road. Rysheed Jordan had two of his turnovers lead to made three pointers (Gibbs to end first half, Sina at 12:30 mark of 2nd half). It was 44-53 when Jordan committed his stupid technical foul. We lost possession as a result, Gibbs hit both FTs, and then Sina hit a three pointer to make it 58-44. So instead of making it a six or seven point game, Jordan's decision to fling the ball resulted in a nearly insurmountable 14 point deficit that changed the entire game.
#26 RPI with Whitehead definitely a game they should be winning

As I posted before the game, I think Whitehead being out worked to their advantage for this one. He is awesome, but he's a freshman in what would have been his first ever Big East game and would have made mistakes.  His absence resulted in more shots for Gibbs and Sina and they killed us:  39 points, 12-22 from the floor, 9-15 from three! and 11 assists to just two turnovers.

So, according to Marillac...
 Seton Hall is better off without their second leading scorer, the Mcdonalds All-American Isiah Whitehad.
Meanwhile, undersized St Johns should be grateful that they don't have NBA power forward Jakarr Sampson anymore or his d-league brethren Orlando Sanchez.   

Remind me again who the troll is around here?   Baldi?   ???

(Thank you hnk)
