Sums up our season by coach

Bingo! Nobody on our team needs to hang their head. Great group this year.
0 for 4. Another failure of a season. March madness birth should be the goal at a minimum. Yet to be done under this coach
Give him $10 million and see what he can do.
The problem is other teams will have $15 million.
Stronger D and questionable offensive sets. The one notable thing about Sha’s offensive sets is that they’re offensive.
When we raise our financial game so will the others. These other programs are competitive and when they see us as 10 million they’re going to do what they have to do to put together a more talented roster.
He took over a program that didn’t go to any of the previous 4 as opposed to taking over a program that went to 5 of the last 6. Blaney didn’t get a 4th year after taking over a program that went to 5 of the last 6.
I don't want to hear about what he did at St. Peter's anymore. It's like Gonzalez reminding everyone he beat Florida. Four years. No tournament appearances. Hot seat next year.
We had 7 wins last year
20 this year
Should have been a tourney team
The fact that we are not is devastating to most who visit this board
But most of the posters thought we were dead after last year. We are not.
We had a thoroughly entertaining season imo and we were back playing on Friday night.
Even with the less NIL resources we had this year and many on this thread are predicting for next year, we had a good year and the conference Coach of the Year.
Disappointing for sure, but our team this year competed and could compete with most teams this season imo.

To those of you who say 0-4, get a hold of yourself.
0 for 4 and .500 career record. He is what his record says he is and that’s average at best. Hasn’t done anything here
oh stop willard left the program in worse shape than when he inherited it. his first year he had a good team. he bombed recruiting his last few.
they never said it for willard. wonder what is different about the two ?
what was willard's records before 2016?
Or put $9M into the roster and put $1M into a scouting & personnel department. Seton Hall’s needs to stay middle of the pack in NIL but lets be real, that’s never going to be a strength.
Have 1-2 guys outside of coaching roles who specifically scout talent here and overseas. Given our proximity to NYC we should always have 1-2 good foreigners on this roster. Why not?
First year - average
Second Year - 65th team, left out of tourney - a decision roundly criticized
Third Year - little resources by all accounts. Disaster
This year - better resources, but low. Probably 2 wins away from bid.
Picked by all league coaches as Coach of the Year
There is a reality to the situation you are ignoring. If this was a typical framework - No immediate transfer eligibility and NIL not running amuck. Yes 0-4 makes sense to be very upset about. However, not to factor in those issues is just flawed analysis.
Remember the days pre 2016 when thr big east was getting 3 teams a year into the dance?
This is not fact. The big east has had atleast 4 teams a season since the reformation of the league up until 2 seasons ago when only 3 got in.
It was a joke. Willard’s record his first 4 years was against college basketball giants. The big east dos not have those giants today so why compare records.
He is nowhere near a hot seat
Comparing what Holloway did getting to the elite 8 to Gonzo one win is ridiculous.
I cannot recall Holloway talking about that run very much at all since he took the job. In my mind, he should talk about it more. But comparing Holloway to Gonzo in this regard or any is laughable. Not many posters ever talk about it here.
Name a program in a multi bid conference with our level of financial support the last 4 years that has done better.
UCF 3 mil NIL this year is dancing. We have over double there NIL. Wake up
For what it’s worth they are “rumored” to actually be in our range. No one really knows exact spend, except apparently for you. They are 52 in the NET we are 54. In Kenpom we are 50 and the are 54.
FWIW for this one example and I personally have no idea what their NIL figure is. I do know they play in the Big 12 and of course we play in the Big East. That said playing BB and FB in the Big 12 makes the figure noted hard to believe.
Kenpom
Seton Hall 50
UCF 54
NET
UCF 52
Seton Hall 54
We had 6.5 min payroll for this season. UCF had 3 mil. We had over double. They are a consensus lock to make the tourney as a 9-10 seed. We are going home with nothing yet again. 0 for 4

Goodman’s info is not consistent with other reports. Maybe he knows maybe he doesn’t. The good news is your wish won’t be granted
Excuses are for losers. The goal every year is the NCAA Tournament. If you don't get in, the season is a failure. School after school are firing their coaches for not making the tournament so those variables mean nothing.

Keep up with the hot takes regardless of thought. Fits well around here. So, your view is that NIL and immediate transfer eligibility did not adversely impact Seton Hall and college basketball? Particularly, for programs that want to develop players over years. Jay Wright would disagree as would the President who held a summit on the state of college sports last week.
I'm not wasting my contribution dollars on athletes who won't be thankful 12 months from now. St Jude's children will be thankful the rest of their life. Every dollar I can contribute goes to a cause like that. I wouldn't waste $1 I give to them on a college athlete.
No, that wasn't the point. The point is that it is a never ending arms race that Seton Hall will always be behind in. And it's always the fans fault.
We are the easiest team to guard in the conference. Heck, from time to time, we still run the Willard weave....Sha’s offensive sets is that they’re offensive.
