    Francensa on Johnnies

    OSU had a big fat center and we couldn't stop him.

    Seton Hall Post Game Thread

    We got a friendly whistle. That is a rare thing. Whoever thought honoring a guy before before his career was over should be jailed. Alex bailed them out but it could have backfired just as easily. As soon as I saw that I knew we were in trouble.

    Geno calls out men's team fans for reaction after Creighton loss

    I agree that fans are crazy. But, in general, that is much, much better than having fans that don't care. As Oscar Wilde said, There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.

    Geno calls out men's team fans for reaction after Creighton loss

    I don't agree. SJU did a lot of screening. Our switching was impeccable. The path to the lane was blocked most of the night. We also did a much better job identifying who to leave open at the arc and who needed to driven off the three point point line after the switch. We knew who to go under...

    Our defensive switching at the arc was flawless. So different from the first game. I don't think St John's was ready for it and by the second half they had already given up. Our coaching and game planning is pretty darn good.

    Who knew Bouknight was a 3 point marksmen?

    He is athletic enough for the NBA. He knows how to score. He is missing something.
