St John’s-UConn

[BringItONUK ROCKS_rivals]

Think about this
Mark Pope beat Pitino and Calipari this year, that alone looks pretty good on a resume for another job, or to keep the one he has

Beat Pitino with finally a full roster on a neutral site... then beat Cal in his arena with a patched up roster because of season ending injuries........ yet.... Pope is an all shucks guy that can't coach.

Nice! I almost went there. Chose Manhattan College cause the babes were a little better and I wanted to be on the subway line. But have a lot of friends that went to SJU and always root for them. @The_Answer1313_rivals went there is believe.

Yep. I was at the Garden when they won the NIT (oh god I'm dating myself here lol). Storming the court was at the Garden when they won was great.

EDIT: OMG I had no idea they had to vacate that 2003 NIT title because some dude admitted to taking 300 dollars a month. That's funny given current times lol. Oh well............this is why the vacated stuff always cracks me up. Like.......it still happened lol. The feeling, the excitement......you can't really take that away lol.

Any animosity I had towards Rick is gone. His off the court issues notwithstanding, he’s one of the best to ever coach in CBB. His time at UK is stuff of legend, that ended too soon. The biggest “what if” in UK Bball history.
Any time he can beat Danny Hurley, make him melt down and lose sleep, I’m here for it.

I don't care what the sour fans or trolls think, I'm a Pope pumper until he is no longer our coach.
Go cats, beat Tennessee's a.ss

Bryce hopkins.. doink.

Hopkins is a good player, but I really thought he would be a lot better.

"40 minutes of Hell" was Nolan Richardson. When Pitino was at UK he called it the "Mother in law defense" -total and constant harassment.

Pitino says it works great for spreading playing time when you have 9 or more good players because everybody has to go full speed while on the court x St John’s defense was also me last night.

Mullins is a kid who I would have loved to have landed.

Another one we whiffed on that we wanted. It was obvious we had no shot early so we didn’t try as hard but still. He would be a killer in a proper zoom action setting.

Playing real well right now. He’s a punk, however. Fits right in with UConn and their coach. B1tches all around.

Demary was exactly the kind of guard we needed.

Come on St. John’s! Send that insufferable prick back to Connecticut with a FAT L! Got damn I HATE UConn!

Me too only second to Duke for me.
