Seton Hall Post Game Thread

Loved Hurley' s response about losing at Seton Jall. paraphrasing My legacy is not determined by one game a year against - "WE ARE UCONN"
It is certainly good for Hurley to remind himself of that but asking a legitimate question is not grounds for getting defensive. Why not bask in the relief of finally winning one at the Rock after 4 losses in a row? Smile, your team just won the game!
 
Can we talk about what a little b Shaheen was that game? Like dude, your team committed a million fouls what in the world are you complaining about. You should be thanking the refs

Then he got was in his little defensive stance on the court minutes after an all-time crash out - such a dweeb
I like his energy. Plus it proves Danny isn't the only animated coach in the BE. And even though Danny is over the top, wouldn't you rather have interesting coaches in the BE to buttoned up professionals?
 
Ross continues to look lost out there and scared. But Stewart played well I thought. Only 2 points, missed his one 3-pt attempt, but didn't really hurt us. I thought he played pretty good D. I recall one play particularly where he kept the ball handler in front of him, forced a fade away and I think he got a piece of it because it fell way short of the rim.
Fair, bad was probably not appropriate. Stewart played good D, but looked a bit lost offensively today. The broader point being he and/or Ross need to show more consistent offensive production before Hurley can possibly think about heavily cutting into Solo’s minutes.
 
Alex Karaban is a gd pro.

Enjoy him while he’s still here folks.
I'm like 67 1/2% confident that he'll turn pro at the end of the season.

I think I might try to watch the next game w/o also being on chat. I have to think it's a far better experience. Half the people on chat don't deserve this team.
I haven’t been in the chat in 2 or 3 years. I think it’s kind of useless. I can’t watch the game and pay attention to the chat at the same time. So I just yell at the TV instead.

To your question - generally, yes. I was irked that he was riding the refs so hard after coaching his team to foul incessantly while avoiding getting called for it
 
I’ve never seen a more negative fan base of a 17-1 team. We’ve lost the plot.
There are some over-the-top negative folks here, but with that said, this is a forum, and when the team performs poorly, do you expect everyone to post, best performance ever, they executed to perfection...come on man!

As poorly the game was officiated, they played a lot of bad basketball, but simply were the superior team and made more plays, especially when it counted most. If they played like this against a team that can shoot FTs and 3s at a solid clip, we don't come out of that game with a W. That was a brutal last 10 minutes. Hurley has more than enough to work on improvements, like learning to inbound the ball. Why this is still an issue for this team is a head-scratcher.

With that said, Silas was great, Mullins came up huge, though still has his obligatory step on the sideline and Reed was a beast, though missed 8 of our 10 missed FTs. Geez, I tried to finish this a 100% positive but just couldn't do it tonight.
 
Again they have a better record than ‘23 or ‘24 did at this point.

I’m not saying where they’re going to end up but this whole “this team doesn’t have what it takes” stuff is really bizarre.
I agree with you on your take but I will say I am dumbfounded that they can erupt with an effortless 10 point spurt in a minute’s time while blowing a lead almost as quickly. What the 2023 and 2024 teams had that I haven’t seen from this one is was a dogged resistance to let the opponent back in the game.

If we weren't held and tackled constantly we win by 20.
 
The game was everything we predicted it would be, an ugly, low scoring rock fight. Both teams missed 10 free throws. Both teams shot poorly from 3. Both teams fouled a lot. No surprise.

TR was the difference, despite 8 missed FT's (9 if you count the missed front end)
AK played pretty well but had trouble not fouling.
SD was solid, clutch from line at the end
BM had his moments (can he stop stepping out of bounds?) but we sure needed him. He actually scored our last field goal at 5:42. That was big time. And the block at the end of course.
SB is still struggling but I thought he rebounded the ball well. Nice dunk too.
JS played good D

Still have things to work on but checked another box tonight: win a rock fight

He also said you've won two championships in four seasons. Nope, it's two in three seasons Andy. Hurley is going for three in four seasons.
What I think Katz meant there was that we have won two nattys during the same four year losing streak at Prudential to show how crazy that is but he didn’t articulate it correctly? I thought Danny looked petty there but no biggie
 
Still growing as a team. Loved the first half. Lotta guys doing good things. Yeah, foul city by the Hall, but they play with a manic intensity. When they get close they can smell blood in the water. Great game, will help us down the road.

OK. I think Shaheen and Hurley make the BE more interesting. Glad to have him.

I often join the chat, but keep on asking myself why, for the same reasons you pointed out. Most of the time we all just share our thoughts, have little time to read what others are saying then trying to scroll back to read some of it giving a thumbs up or 2 during non-action time or to see what people thought about my posts.

It's sort of pointless other than some sort of cathartic experience when watching the game alone at home. If only my Bernedoodle Toby who watches the game with me would listen and have a conversation with me about the game. We have trained him to give us a high five which results in rewarding him a treat when something good happens. Tonight was not one of those games. But I digress...

Agreed. Count me as a Solo supporter. I do think he should be a little more selective with his 3 point attempts until he starts seeing them go in again.
 
He is a lefty which is the one hand that was hurt. Fact he used his right hand for the dunk may be evidence that the left is indeed still suffering.
I was wondering how long it would take for someone to point out that he's a lefty. Are there some here that hadn't figured that out?

The 23 team completely forgot how to play basketball for the entire month of January.

I have the St Mary's game on in the background and just happened to notice a player do a fake, one dribble step to the right and knock down a three.

My point is Solo needs to figure out how to convert a few under control threes within the flow of the game instead of throwing up so many high degree difficult ones. Granted he has been struggling missing some of the easy ones as well, but I don't know what it will take for him to regain his stroke and confidence.

Agree, but still there was a lot of self-inflicted things they did that contributed to a game that should have not been all that close.
 
Dan had a very crappy post game interview with Andy Katz, Andy didn’t deserve that arrogant comeback on what seemed like a good question. Please stop with “…. 4 games against SH doesn’t define my legacy…” Bull crap. Was disappointed in that, felt bad for Katz!
Whenever Hurley is talking to reporters he’s also talking to recruits. So mentioning 4 straight losses to him isn’t going to sit well. I think he was just not happy about the question and deflected it with his response.
 
Except that isn’t was Andy Katz said. Andy Katz was factually incorrect
I'd have to go back and listen again but the way I heard it he said, "you haven't won here in the last 4". Maybe he didn't enunciate clearly, or maybe I just reinterpreted it based on my understanding of the facts. My point is, don't be so defensive. He wasn't attacking Danny. It was a friendly question. He thought he would be interviewing a coach who was in a good mood, having just won the game.
