Seton Hall Post Game Thread

[Donyell 360]

Some of his hot takes are just so over the top I don't even acknowledge them.

Too much Donny hate on this board. He is our guy, give him a break. Even if he is not the best. Chill with all the complaining.

As I was typing this I realized someone could say the same thing about my complaints toward Malachi. But whether Donny is a good announcer or not has no bearing on the outcome of the game. Smith's play does.

Someone ask the 80 year old coaching the women’s team if we’re allowed to have an opinion on the game.

Alex bailed us out. If he isn’t Superman, we get dumped Creighton-style.

Like 48 hours after getting confirmation that our depth is a huge advantage, Dan Hurley again shortened the bench and we immediately went back to being life and death with a scrub SH team.

Anyway, on to Marquette and rooting against SJU later on.

Thanks for your opinion it is so valued

The problem is Donny is such a bad announcer and his over the top takes with his attempts to try to pump up the opposition is just bad color commentary. I normally mute him but in this game he was managable probably due to John Fanta not being there who I'm not a huge fan of either. Together they are insufferable.

To many wins at the end by under 6 or 7 points. It will bite us in the tournament.

Did you ever think this might be good going into the tournament?

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

That they did. Question: Did you watch what Michigan did to the Illini last nite?

The same thing we did to them?

Watched from the last 3 min from the gondola at Stowe, thank the lord we won.

Was it close the whole game or they just shot out of their asses?

 

[microfich]

Not the Creighton game. We layed an egg in that one.

Well, sure and StJ but hyperbole makes the point. We've taken a lot of punches and are looking down at the mat at the losers again and again (there I go again!)

They were up 8 with just over 8 minutes left. The game was close and no team got over 8 point lead in the game.

Well St. John's loss was legit the Creighton game was just a brain fart from the team.

Alex will lead us to Title #7. MVP of the Final 4.

All the above. SHU played tough I have to admit

 

[Donyell 360]

Yea it seems like he doesn't want to come off as a homer and goes way to the other end where he's overcompensating. Just call the game like a regular announcer, Robbie Hummel is a Purdue grad and has called a bunch of Purdue games and I never hear that stuff with him.

Who cares about Robbie Hummel? Donny is our guy

 

[Fan1978]

Was it just me or was listening to Donny Marshall particularly aggravating with all his subtle criticisms and backhanded complements?

Not as bad as his sidekick surprised reibe took shot with left hand not realizing he is lefty. Way to do your homework

 

[ctbro1999]

Thank God for Karaban. He brought this today.

 

[NJHusky]

Malachi Smith drives me crazy. At least he made 1 of 2 free throws. I guess that is improvement?

How can a pg shoot 50% from the line??

I wish those who mute Donny would also do us the courtesy of muting their complaints after the game.

It's like every time. Put the radio on.

We know you love trashing UConn players and alums @mauconnfan, not engaging with you any further.

He has been blocked by me for a long time.

I can tell when Tarris is going to miss a free throw and when he's going to make them.

When he misses he rushes through and shoots in one continuous motion after the bounce. With a little hitch as he's bringing the ball up.

When he makes he comes to a full stop, pauses, and shoots fluidly from the knees.

I've been watching this for 3 straight games.

It's almost always back rim.

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.

I would say it was more fair than friendly. Seton Hall fouls you every time down the floor. They make the referees make a decision. Very physical. Very active hands.

BTW, I've been going to Gampel for thirty years. When Mullins hit that three during the comeback, the building went to a volume seldom heard there.

At the end of the day, Seton Hall got everything it wanted today. After going 0-18 from 3 against Georgetown, they went 9-18 today. Uconn was coming off an physically and emotionally exhausting win on Wednesday. Seton Hall had a week to prepare for this game that they had to have if they wanted to make the tournament with an at-large bid. They shot lights out from 3 and, for 33 minutes, got every 50-50 ball. Even still, UConn pulled it out.

I don't know how this team's season will end up. The defense has to get more consistent. They have to shoot better from the line and they have to get Stewart back...but this was a great win to get today for Karaban. Go Nova!

LOL... I use to say the same thing about Giffey's 3s. If he had time to set, he was a 95% 3 point shooter. But because he shot the call decently, he took many 3s when he wasn't set, and on those, he shot 5%.
