Horrible loss for the Friars.
Not only do they play horrible D, they also don’t play smart. Not a good combo. No wonder they are 0-4 in OT, giving up 103, 105, 107 and 113.

Every time Vaax touched the ball late game, good things happened. 2 drive, draw , dish for lob jams. Yet, Providence had multiple trips without him involved.With a timeout available, English does not use it, with the ball in the hands of Corey Floyd JR. Turnover, then foul for free throws. Game over. But not before Vaax gets ball on last play finally and almost hits a 50 foot desperation shot.

Too much talent on that team to lose games the way Providence does all the time.

Wasn’t 50, it was about 30. But apparently the first option on the inbound was to pass to Sellers, which he didn’t do. Got a quick return pass from the other guy and raced up court.

He’s a good scorer, but he’s quite a chucker. There‘s not a lot of discipline on that team on either end of the floor.

Other than the two lobs he through for easy dunks down the stretch. I feel like that team is all about getting theirs.

Watched the X - Creighton game. X got royally screwed on a phantom foul call at the end of regulation. Despite Swartz heroics, the last 4 seconds should have never happened.

Xavier has drastically improved. No longer a sure win for us, home or away.

Watching those 2 we are on a different stratosphere defensively.
We gave up 54 to creighton who scored at will vs Xavier

We were whistled for 15 fouls in the Creighton game. Those days are over my friend.

Exactly and does conference officials doing anything about that total bogus foul call?? Xavier played a great game and to have a blind ref make that call is laughable. Time to start calling these bad refs out.

Kim English is done.
He has been an absolute failure.

The school is also to blame for hiring him so quickly after Cooley left, and then extending him after Devin Carter led them to the NIT his first season.
