Seton Hall, good grief

Good for the league. That was hard to watch.

 

[Mr. Wonderful]

Seton Hall was 3/24 from 3, and one of the makes was banked in from a crazy angle.

They also shot 5 airballs.

I’m guessing that was not due to great Georgetown defense. Holloway recruits athletes and he needs to look at shooting guards as well moving forward.

 

[auror]

That Seton Hall vs. Georgetown game was absolute cinema.

 

[How Sway?!]

Seton Hall needs to do more HS recruiting in the 100-150 range, find and develop more guys like Isaiah Coleman

They need a new coach. Sha can't coach any bit of offense and clearly sucks at identifying talent.

Rumor is that Holloway has less NIL money than many mid-majors, and his roster shows it. Holloway should have left two years ago.

 

[REB1094]

Seton Hall has no NIL, no coach, and more mid major level players than not. They would be in the lower tier of better mid major conferences like the MWC, WCC, A10

Maybe they’d be a middle of pack team in the CAA or CUSA

Holloway is a good coach, but there is nothing he can do with that program.

He went from a program that had no money to even provide the team proper spaces for meetings (he often had his meetings in the showers of the men's locker room with water dripping on players' heads) to a program that has no NIL money to keep/attract any good players. Damn.

 

[AllHusky]

Holloway may have to take a step back in order to move forward in his career. Not sure if that means HC at a mid major with some resources, or top Asst at a P4 with resources. Don't see how SH can do anything but crush his career. Poster earlier said it, shoulda left 2 years ago.

 

[ctbro1999]

Xavier the "almost but not quite" team so far this year. Their last 4 L's have been by a combined 14 points (all by 5 points or less).

You're right, but that would be such a bad look for SHU. Not sure he will be able to do that to his alma mater

His alma mater doesn’t even seem to be trying to play the game. Not doing Holloway any favors.

I posted in November 2023 that Holloway might take an A10 or AAC job if Seton Hall doesn’t start supporting the program. I think he has to leave this offseason or this will be the last head coaching job Holloway ever gets.

I wonder if somewhere, at some level, Seton Hall is not considering downgrading their basketball program. It will never be competitive again at a national level unless something drastic happens.

 

[aceboon]

Y'all are so overdramatic

 

[gtcam]

Halloway is a solid coach, but he happened to desire to go back the Hall and coach but maybe should have done a better job in due diligence as far as NIL is concerned.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Seton Hall looks terrible in every game.

 

[aceboon]

Zugic for Creighton still barely playing, was he practicing while waiting to be cleared by the NCAA? given his age/experience I figured he would be right in the mix after all of the hype

I don't think he is game shape at the moment.

 

[aceboon]

didn't last year's Creighton vs SJU game in Omaha end in a similar fashion with a no call on a potential foul?

They shake hands?

 

[Hi-Low]

Cant expect an official to make that call on drive to basket for SJU as time about to expire. Take an open jump shot.

Donny was right in postgame...the first SJU shot should have been the drive to basket and 2nd shot should have been pull up jumper. SJU did just the opposite

 

[Hi-Low]

Nope, not that was visible on TV anyway...just showed Creighton players shake each others hands on court.

I thought RJ Luis should have pulled up from 12 feet and shot it.

No class for Rick.
