There are a lot of good mid major offensive teams. Hurley us going to need to get these guys ready to defend. Sanogo should be able to eat down low. AJax and Hawk needs to respond big time, because their combined performance was unacceptable. As you said, put up or shut up time for Hurley. We’re a darling pick to go to the FF/win it all from a ton of analysts. 2 wins is bare minimum.Should be a 3 seed, hopefully in the East.
There's a tremendous amount of pressure on Hurley now to perform in this tournament. He's got the program in a great place where we're better each season, recruiting is humming, and a top 10-15 team nationally...
The elephant in the room is no Big East regular season titles, no Big East tournament titles, and no NCAA tournament wins. He's getting a rep/already has a rep as not being a big game coach. He can change all that the next week+. Things are going to get kind of ugly if we don't make it out of the first weekend, so let's make sure we do.
Id say best case is a 4 but likely a 5 but people nationally seem to really like this team so we may luck out and get a 4.I think it’s a good thing, way too comfortable in NYC. my goal was always sweet 16
4/5 seed and pissed off
This team makes too many bad plays in big spots and our coach consistently gets outcoached in tight games so im not holding my breath for anything more than a one and done. Sweet 16 would be nice and i believe will be our ceiling.We’re a darling pick to go to the FF/win it all from a ton of analysts. 2 wins is bare minimum.
NaFeels like we're so ripe for getting picked off 1st round again by some NM State-ish team because we'll be terrified to be trapped in another close game. Best thing they can do is use this loss tonight to motivate them to play lights out next weekend.
If we don’t get to the S16 this season is a failure, no way to sugarcoat it.This team makes too many bad plays in big spots and our coach consistently gets outcoached in tight games so im not holding my breath for anything more than a one and done.
