Great win by my Johnnies! I was waiting for a Big East win against a bubble team. Beating DePaul is nice but then again who doesn't? Beating PC was nice, but they are really hurting after Dunn and Bentil left. They are rebuilding. A win over Marquette is a legitimate win. Very talented roster and lots of great shooters. This was the first game that really made me feel like we may have something special here. Word in the street is that we are in good shape with Walker and Clark & Simon are on their way next yr. If Walker comes, we need 1 more big to transfer and we will be very deep. We are 2-3 bigs away from being a consistently decent team provided they can rebound and defend.
If our defense comes close to our offense, watch out. This team reminds me of the Seton Hall team with all that young talent that no one wanted to play a few yrs back. Hopefully we are 2 years away from the tourney. Next yr shoot for 17 wins and yr after that 20+.
