The lineup has to change

Yalden is the least athletic player I have ever seen on a Seton Hall team. Your comparisons blow him out in terms of athleticism
He is more athletic than Auda at this point. Did you come to the games when Patrick was a freshman and sophomore? I was defending his game for years in my section. People in the stands thought he was terrible, could not understand why he was on the floor. Gus will be better than Auda. When you coach and watch player after player you realize there is a big difference from one year to the next. Fans expect way to much from Freshman and Sophomores. Myles Powell as a Freshman showed promise but fans thought he would ever be able to play in the Big East. Comical to expect guys who never played a minute to excel. Watching guys become men on a basketball court is what makes the games so entertaining year after year.

Sha hot seat

Nobody said lifetime. Its his 3rd year and in the middle of major NIL changes. You have to give these types of programs 5-6 years. Didnt calipari.say recently hes gotta switch up his entire style of recruiting due to NIL? Shit, good coaches have quit due to it. Really tells you something about the changes these coaches have to make overnight.
i don’t think nil hurts nearly as much as people here say it does…the transfer rule is killing us and Sha deserves slack with that

I hope he makes improvements and we have to worry about keeping him

Sha hot seat

Shaheen went from having a potential top 25 preseason team, featuring two preseason all-BE level players, to a complete mess of a roster that can't crack 60 points. Meanwhile, most of the coaches in his league - including guys like Kim English and Kyle Neptune, who have half of Shaheen's coaching credentials -- seem to be swimming in NIL money. Must feel great.
Top 25 preseason team? Said who?

The lineup has to change

Gus was supposed to be a guy that could hit 3s easily and also put moves on in the low post when given the ball. He’s failed at both of those. So the lack of athleticism and slow feet have stood out even worse because of that
Honestly thought he would be better but give him time
How did Drew timmie from Gonzaga fare in hist first few college games?

Sha hot seat

I don’t buy that at all. We can point to countless examples of college programs that have done well without having the same level of “resources” as the power schools. And in other sports where spending is basically unrestricted (like MLB). It might make the job harder, but it’s always been harder for the smaller non-football Catholic schools, by and large, including Seton Hall.

There is a difference between saying Sha is on the “hot seat”, which I think is laughable, and constructive criticism, which is legitimate.

And, for the 100th time, NIL is absolutely no reason for us to have looked and played how we’ve looked and played against our schedule to date.
for the 100th time IT DOES. it adjusted Sha's strategy of taking flyer on damaged goods in order to compete in the big east. boom or bust guys and it's been complete bust this year.

these guys had talent at one point but are appearing not only bad, but uncoachable. this roster doesn't look like this under NIL.

and maybe this will stick in your head... he lost his two best players because NIL. a PG (which we are missing) and our most fundamentally sound player. he wanted to replace the talent without money. that gets you this mess of damaged goods.

btw what are the countless examples? less funding than us?? ill start counting

Peacock cyber Monday deal

I just signed up and watched my first game on Peacock. The quality was good. Donny Marshall was the color guy. While he has his faults, he is reasonably knowledgeable and was a familiar voice. I don't know who the play-by-play guy was, but he had some bad laryngitis. By the end of the game, it sound like someone took a cheese grater to his throat. One thing that was kind of cool is if you login early, they've got a camera on the court so you can see the Star-Spangled Banner and player introductions and stuff. Lots of times streamed games I log on early to make sure that everything's gonna be OK and then you have to wait for the game to begin to know for sure. I like this better.

You can't go wrong for $20 for the year. After the first year, it jumps up to $89 for the year, which is still a reasonable price.
