Was impressed with the big Greek kid on Monmouth. Even Monmouth is finding European pros. The broadcasters said young assistants who played pro in Europe help finding these guys because they have contacts in Europe. Unfortunately our top assistants don't meet that criteria.
He was a good free throw shooter. I didn't see anything else that impressed me. Without looking at the stats, 3/4 of his points from the line?

Something to watch at least

If they do we’re gonna be in trouble. Our offense is looking brutal. Too easy to predict and no good shooters

Shaheen has these guys playing like robots. It doesn’t help the can’t shoot. But there’s zero confidence from any of them having to go thru all the progressions. Nobody wants to take over.

Why? He hasn’t done anything that impressive yet this season

Embarrassing. The talent level is once again not big east quality.

Dar isn’t impressing me
Fisher as the PF isn’t going to work
Parker isn’t doing much.

Bud needs to start taking more mid range jumpers. That looked real good for him. Otherwise he’s either forcing it to the rim or passing too much imo.

Staton-McCray looks like he’s going to be a hot/cold type player. But we’ll need him and hope he’s on.

I’m glad you brought up Josh Rivera.. He came in and whiffed on about 4 layups in 30 seconds and bricked two free throws. I wonder if I can see him and Wusu play 1on1. I’ll hang up and listen.

Reading this trash the day after really leads one to believe that you bring nothing to the board, unless other masochists just like the constant noise. Why bother to watch? You obviously had nothing going on and couldn't be bothered getting out to the game, so why not just go watch the Knicks and eat gummies? Seriously, even after a nice turnaround, you can't even bring yourself to say there was a vast improvement, that the level of play was better, as were Parker, Dar, and Clark. And yes, I know it was Monmouth.

Did more than hold his own physically in his 2nd college game against our bigs and outscored both of them combined (16 to 10) He had 16 points & 6 rebounds and showed a big body with physicality to play inside and shooting ability to play outside (9 for 10 FTs, 1 for 3 from 3).

As a freshman at a low-major like Monmouth, he looked like he belonged. I wouldn't mind a guy like him to get minutes at the 4 for us.

When‘s the last time you’ve said anything positive?

I think everyone knows the deal with what lies ahead. But these are the games they are supposed to win, and they are. Why not appreciate that, like everyone else seems to be doing?
lloyde dobler shilling for Seton Hall basketball. Now I have truly seen it all on these boards!

What‘s the shill? They are 4-0 just like they are supposed to be, playing the way a team that’s ultimately going to struggle should play.

We were being seriously outplayed by Monmouth the entire first half. What were the posts supposed to say? Yayyy Seton Hall! Go team go! Maybe a cheer? I call it how it is, sorry you can’t handle it.

And SHU seriously outplayed Monmouth in the 2nd half. This is not a straight line progression. Posters here know the deal going forward. As noted, just enjoy the ride when we can. It’s going to be bumpy.
