Jerry on Richmond Saturday

[Piratz]

Nothing would be sweeter than beating them right now.

 

[SOpirate]

It’s a lose-lose situation for SHU fans.

Does Richmond deserve to be booed - absolutely. Money or not it’s still sports and he chose to play for an arch rival.

If we boo, outside observers will say we’re just salty, given the state of our program and the people leading it, compared to how Pitino and Kadary have SJU on the way back to national relevance.

If we don’t boo we look soft. These guys brazenly poached our best player and we have fans thinking about cheering him? Makes my stomach churn.

So it’s a lose-lose… unless somehow, someway way, we pull out a win.

Guarantee you more St. John's fans traveled to their Bermuda tournament than to the Rock on Saturday night. They never come to the Prudential Center. Unlike Nova, who has more fans in New Jersey than we do or UCONN, whose fans travel everywhere.

I posted this on the Facebook. Seton Hall fans should show a little class and give him a standing ovation at the introductions for the three years and great memories that he has here at the Hall. None of the people booing or encouraging people to boo would turn down a job offer that paid you significantly more money from a rival company. As fans, I understand being disappointed that he left. But to boo him and claim him the enemy just goes to show how low we have sunk in our behavior. Show some class and applaud him in recognition of what he accomplished here. You can root for the Pirates to beat St Johns all night long after that,

This is pathetic. An NIT and screwing us over is no reason for an applause. Kadary could’ve told sha on day 1 that he was out and allowed us to move on. As critical as I’ve been about Sha this season, Kadary put him in a very difficult position stringing us along into May

For all we know, he told Sha he was likely going into the portal after the season ended, but waited a while for whatever reason before formally doing so. Or, he was waiting to see how things played out with the roster of our roster.

I get the timeline for all this stuff mixed up, but my recall is St. John's got a commitment from Dev Smith before Kadary, and also struck out on various other rumored portal candidates they lost to bigger schools (including guards). So I don't think the KR to SJU was nearly as much of a done deal as folks seem to think it was or based on the narrative they've created in their minds.

That could be true and Kadary at the end of the day did what was best for him. The by product was that Sha was 6 weeks behind in the portal with a very limited budget.

Is Pitino serious lol?

Would love to see dylan guard kadary.

I think there’s a lot to be said for this but doubt it happens.

Probably. He can’t shut up. Never has been able to. HOF coach, HOF mouth.

What’s pathetic is thinking someone should stay at a school to avoid your feelings of being hurt. It’s pathetic to think he should sacrifice the one big payday he may ever have so not to “screw” over Seton Hall.

Go boo and show an utter lack of class and dignity. But, it would show so much more that we as a Seton Hall community gets together and give him a standing ovation. Now that would be far more powerful of statement and demonstrates the dignity of the school itself.

Dignity of the school wrapped up in the current allegations surrounding our president? Get off the high horse. Kadary made a positive impact on our program. Never reached anywhere near his potential, 0 NCAA tournament wins, 1 big east tournament win. The NIT is a participation trophy, not a reason for an ovation after a transfer to your rival

 

[dehere23]

Would love to see dylan guard kadary.

They are buddies, I’m sure, so would be fun. As long as he stays away from the student managers lol

 

[Piratz]

Playing devils advocate, maybe cheering him shows The Hall is a place you wanna be? I know it means nothing compared to money but we need all the positivity we can get.

 

[Piratz]

To make matters worse rumors started to swirl that he was transferring to St John’s long before the season ended.

I want all these kids to get as much money as possible and if St John’s was the highest bidder so be it. This is business. However, the manner in which this went down (i.e. committing to St. John’s before entering the portal) leaves an EXTREMELY sour taste in my mouth. Plus the comments he made in his exit interview really ticked me off.

I’m not mad at Kadary for going to Saint John’s (I would have to), I’m mad for the way he handled it. Couldn’t have been done in a worse way.

It’s a crappy situation. I don’t think he did anything like a social media post thanking The Hall. He was such a high-profile impactful player for us and spent 3 years here.

You can’t fault him though. That’s game-changing money he got. The type of money that gets your family into a home in the suburbs type of stuff. We couldn’t come close. It seems like it was a tough decision for him, idk. But the optics and now leading St. John’s while we look like garbage is brutal for The Hall. There’s so much pent up frustration about it.

Yes, let’s send everyone the message that you can transfer to our rivals with the biggest a hole coach and we’ll give you a standing ovation. Might as well have Sha tell recruits that we don’t care about competition or winning

Any one need any other reasons for why I will Boo Slick Ricky?
Begging for a job 5 years ago sand now is Mr Basketball? Decides what is best for Ricky --Knows it all now about Big East ; who plays at the Garden; Handshake lines ;and lateral movement ...... Wish Val would tell him to shut up ( she is inept) or suggest a lighter hair dye .

This! It's almost as bad as fans diminishing every accomplishment the team and coach had last year! Idiots.

 

[Seton75]

If that's true, it will be the first time in decades.

i cant rememver sju fans ever a factor at our home games. i remember us having great presense in msg a number of times

They had a decent turnout / were pretty loud at the Shavar 3 pointer game.

 

[The SHUttle]

If I cared at all about the season or even bothered tuning in to games let alone attend them, I'd boo him. He wouldn't care. Life goes on.
