Do not want to jinx it but St John’s is up at halftime 41-28. Let’s go Saint John’s!

I don’t know how many noticed. ASU getting votes due to this poll submission. Insane.

if Sha wasn’t a program legend we’d all be calling for him to be fired. His first two years have been a complete waste with no vision. Mismatched rosters. Nobody has improved under him. Kadary is the same exact player as 3 years ago, Dawes worse, Mr. NY Sanders can’t get off the bench as a sophomore on a pathetic shooting team. I thought Sha was supposed to work wonders with guards… Only getting middle of the road recruits. UGLY.

1. Connecticut 25-3 15-2
One blip on the radar means nothing.

2. Marquette 21-6 12-4
A hair behind Creighton last week. Now a hair in front.

3. Creighton 20-8 11-6
Blow out UConn. Get Blown out by SJU.

4. Seton Hall 18-9 11-5
Hey Palm, are you paying attention?

5. Providence 18-9 9-7
Three in a row moves them up a notch. Tough schedule ahead.

6. St. John's 16-12 8-9
Soft, very soft schedule left.

7. Villanova 15-12 8-8
After cupcake Georgetown at home the schedule gets difficult.

8. Butler 16-12 7-10
Now playing as I expected all year.

9. Xavier 13-14 7-9
4 Ls in a row. Thank God what comes next, DePaul and Georgetown.

10. Georgetown 9-18 2-14
Two positive nail biters in a row against DePaul. Otherwise we're looking at 0-20.

11. DePaul 3-24 0-16
Here, we are actually looking at 0-20.

I gotta say, I had SO MUCH FUN last night, it was nice seeing us play so well, our crowd was all in unison together like the Hall fam we are..... Let's keep this going 18-9 is nothing to sneeze at!

PS- Who's the dude who came up to me in the hallway and said IRONKAZ I know you from the website, present yourself haha.... Good 2 meet you!

With March around the corner, I happened to see this pop up. What a run.

Our three captains had stellar games but we had a unsung hero.
J. Bediako.....GREAT game!

King Rice was interviewed below. He spent 7 minutes on his friendship with Shaheen Holloway. Interesting stuff starting at the 20:50 mark:

SHU at a 10 seed. I think that will be where we end up. Going 2-2 and taking out nova and DePaul. Our NET like it or not will suppress our seed. Same seed we had in 99’.

Any word on KR's condition?

From Carino write-up of Butler 2:

“It’s huge," Holloway, who of course is a former Pirate star, said of the alums showing up. "I thought it was good for Fuquan Edwin to get honored today in the Hall of Fame, he deserved it, he had a great career. And for everybody else coming out here supporting us and showing love, it’s always good. I told you guys before, at Seton Hall, when I’m here, they’re here. So we’re all together. It’s big. You see my boy Isaiah (Whitehead) was here, he was here all week with us (on campus), so it was good."

We're not a prestige program, but we've had some good players over the years. Regardless of how/why Whitehead ended up a pirate, everything I see and read paints him as a true blue lifer. A knock on Willard was his coolness to the school; that he regarded it as a stepping stone to what we really wanted. Now having an all-timer alumnus as a coach who unapologetically views SHU as the be all and end all, and literally a part of his family, is pretty cool.

I'd love a culture that embraces players returning to be involved in various ways after their playing days have ended. For those in NJ who are actually connected to that program, is that what we have? What we've had? What we're developing? Recognizing I'm curious about what the program is like in these respects since my only exposure is through the games and old alum's workman like Internet inventorying

Other bubble teams are gonna do what they’re gonna do. We are ahead of all that. Just keep winning!

I still remember when a McDonalds All-American high school kid named Shaheen Holloway put a Seton Hall Pirates hat on much to Mike Krzyzewski's dismay. It was on live TV on a local NY channel called Sports Extra if I remember correctly.

I was thrilled that we had gotten this highly ranked recruit to play for the Pirates beating out Duke. Four years later, he finished his college playing career as one of the all-time great Pirates. Little did I know that many years later, that decision to put on the Pirates hat would again pay dividends by giving us an even better coach than player!
