People hate Jackson cause he can't shoot. But man his rebounding and d are next level. I counted five plays tonight where he extended plays that made a difference. He needs to play. But not shoot

I like to see him being more aggressive going to the basket on offense. If he can do that we it makes a huge difference. Loved seeing DC get a few more minutes- basically transforms our defense. Danny coached a great game tonight!

Hurley's postgame quote is hilarious. "Lotta people been $2 dollar beer-ing us. Think in Omaha it was a $0.25. "

shot 50/40/90 as a team and doubled them up on the glass. that will work.

WE had more offensive rebounds than they had defensive. Don’t see t hat often.

Nice!

Also, good find on that fact.

Do we need a point guard now? Or should we expect that silly thread a few games from now

Newton just needs to be consistent. That’s the issue with him as PG from time to time

This guy is so hard to bare, it's 50% BS that comes out his mouth, he just says anything. I hope the Big East does leave Fox and he is my biggest reason.

So we can’t complain about our players or coach lets go after the announcers.....crazy stuff

beat them so bad devin carter deleted his Vick tweet lol

That was as good as they have played this year. Friars are a tough scrappy well coached group. Save the analysis - just a good win. Honestly, haven't seen much lately to make me expect this tonight.

outplayed hopkins, too. kid is the real deal.

He is playing and looking bigger every game. Some great footwork around the rim. He seems to play several passes ahead with a serious knack for what's likely to happen.

Bryce Hopkins had 0 rebounds in 37 minutes. He averages 9+ / game

Hopkins was quiet. Alex did a great job in the first half. Their were no foul shots in the first half. Guess the stripes didn’t feel they were doing their job and Alex picked up 3 quickies. I want to rewatch but Naheim picked up Hopkins in the second half and did fine

Hurley's best coached game and our best game of the season.

He changed the offense many games ago and it's made all the difference with the ball not sticking and we found out Sanogo can actually pass. The defense and rebounding was next level.

He relied on the bench and let them play through mistakes. I've been begging for more Clingan minutes all season and Hurley played him through some major freshman struggles he had tonight and he was rewarded for it. Clingan finally had a major sequence to get us to the under 8 and then Adama was as fresh as a daisy to help totally break it open down the stretch.

Providence is a really good team and we destroyed them in every facet of the game. Just an awesome performance by Hurley and the team. That's gotta be big for our confidence for the stretch run.

This was a beautiful team win. Great balanced scoring at all three levels. We play through the early errors and responded with determination. The team totally dominated the boards at both ends. This game was perhaps our best effort of the season.

Sanogo was great today. AK and the Hawk are money. Great D by AJ.

It’s going to be a lonely drive up 44 for the providence criers!

Ever since Hurley changed the offense Sanogo is a different player. The numbers probably don't show it but he's been a much better player since the change.

Karaban just goes about his business, under the radar and then you see the box score. He was 7-12 for 16 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and a steal. He knows where to be, not just on offense, he plays smart defense, (doesn't mean he doesn't get burned). I just like the way he plays the game.

Well done in many way. Newton playing well is so important to this team. Alex was really good as well, loved his takes to the hole as well as the post up out of the time out.

AJ quietly a very nice game, pushed the tempo when he could and picked up a few 50/50 balls to keep possessions alive.

And I think we out rebounded then 25-8 in the 2nd half tremendous.

Need to go to the Garden and let everyone know they’re back now!!

My goodness, Floyd was 1 missed shot, 1 rebound, and 1 assist away from a 15 trillion. He recorded a 5 trillion last week.
