Completely agree. St Johns had a little junkyard dog in them that we couldn’t match right now. Maybe we got a little full of our press clippings. A good gauge should be the first half of next game.
Agreed. This loss was a lot harder for me to swallow than Creighton. And possibly the worst part of it is how long everyone gets to sit around waiting for the next game to happen. Best thing that could have happened would have been to have another game Weds, and to come out and show some grit.

SJU made an adjustment, we didn't make a counter adjustment.

The out scored us by 12 in the last 8 minutes. It wasn't toughness. We played hard. We took out the one player that was dominating on the ofensive end. It was dumbness.

IDK. I mentioned last night Hurley and his staff usually have the Huskies prepared at the start of the game. Gone are the days of going in to the first TV TO with 2 points and down by 10.

Better gauge would be to see how Hurley coaches the last 10 minutes of the second half. That's where the move, counter move, and the counter to the counter have been made and Danny needs to not tighten up and turtle.
