A lot of injuries. Suspect training staff.

Thanks! We need to "claim" some JC kids and get rid of some of the cheap scholarship glue factory players! SJU can no longer keep the better NY Breds to stay home anymore. Pittino takes them back to Louisville to run. We have had to bring in the leftovers who are "reserve not met" at the sales and are not purchased even by smaller mid level programs. We're doing a lot of gate training with the younger talent, but race day, they won't race. Slow out of the gate, always spitting the bit vs Georgetown,Louisville et al, and all the whipping at halftime can't make up for 20 length (point) deficits. Our bloodstock agents need to do a better job recruiting and refilling the stable here! Too many Green Monkeys here that are not winners

Also very tough for small barns like SJU to compete with all the powerful football barns with high priced talent and tons of $$$ to spend on players. Phipps stable we're not anymore.

Their only chance would be if they were. Memphis by 14 enroute to 40-0.

Final score:

SJU men lose by 30

SJU women lose by 57

Total: 87 points...even worse than I predicted. Even Cannon Shell couldn't right this sinking ship!

Oh for the glory days....

Not unless Calipari decides to actually start coaching them. The free throw shooting is embarassing enough but not boxing out is unacceptable.
