2015-16 Nonconference schedule

There's no sense in playing these games at MSG.
Meanwhile Uconn and Georgetown have real games scheduled in our arena.

Who is the wizard behind putting St.Francis at MSG?

It's the Holiday Festival regardless of who is olaying.

It is not an SJU home game per se.

My point that it doesn't have to be an embarrassment. Playing St.Francis sends a message to recruits that we play at that level, especially when the programs that we're up against for talent are playing meaningful games—in the same building.

Playing anyone in the garden when it's less then a third full is just stupid. No reason for it.

@NYPost_Brazille: #sjubb announces non conference game against South Carolina Dec. 22 at Mohegan Sun.

Going to try to make it up there. Really just depends on my work schedule around Christmas time.

From the South Carolina Men's Basketball section.

St. John's apparently leads the series 4-0.

It would be fun to go to . Tuesday night is just stupid though.

Iona still looking to fill the ooc schedule.

@NYPost_Brazille: Also, #sjubb non-conference schedule should be out relatively soon as well.

We opened at 200- 1. Currently 300-1 to win national championship. In Vegas now

The true odds are about 10,000-1

nice to keep the home and home with cuse going.  would be great to get duke and uconn back too

Too many Sunday home games during the NFL stretch run.

Too many Sundays when you coach CYO hoops!

Interesting first time in 5 years they moved the Fordham game back to campus-Rose Hill and it is mid week this year, not part of the Holiday Festival-Wed 12/2.

In fact no Holiday Festival to be found...

And the last time Fordham/SJU was at Rose Hill was 5 years earlier when they both had 1st year coaches, Tom Pecora/Steve Lavin.

You mean no Holiday Festival for Fordham? For St. John's we play St. Francis on Sunday December 6th in it. Not sure what time the game is but most likely right in the middle of Jets/Giants that day...brutal for Mullin's Garden debut.

I'm not in the know whatsoever, but fwiw there were rumors on Twitter about 3 weeks back claiming that Monasch had mismanaged the 15'-16' OOC so much that the Fordham game had to be moved to the BX. Idk what happened with @ LBST, but it looks as if the new regime cancelled any pre-exisiting relationships and started with a clean slate. Obviously the core local relationships (Niagara/Cuse/SFNY) remain and won't be going anywhere, but it will be interesting to see what OOC home/home contracts develop over the next few years with Mullin's reach.
