I always agree Clark is most important player on team but also proving is probably the best player on the team as well. Guys like Simpkins and Mccray earlier in the year had their moments, but Clark and Simpkims are the two most consistent guys, but Clark constantly needs to be on the floor anyway so he is that important.
Even the guys have to play together and 3 to 4 guys have to play great to win games consistently. We need that if the team really wants to still make the tournament.

Long, long way to go here. Stay aggressive, I am not a fan of the super slow down offense under 3:30.
Let's go

Budd Clark tremendous game. He needs to be out there all the time and he has to play smart!
Women also won an important road game at Marquette 70-58. One of their best games.
Good Night for All Hall Ball.

Cats that play double dribble on Nintendo and yell at CYO coaches little Billie is HOF at 12 told me Budd the Philly cat stinks n too small.
Great game for Clark. Big minutes from Godswill. Lot of good. Few things that need to be tightened up. Gotta beat the bad teams and PC is one of them. Next up Butler. They’re going to bring that 1-3-1 against us and not let Clark in the lane. Good win today. Enjoy it. Let’s get another one Sunday
LOL. Double Dribble?! That game's like 40 years old!
Officially released for the NES in 1987. Arcade version in 1986 (40 years ago).
My full court press was elite. Sha would have be proud.
It would be nice if DePaul can beat Creighton tonight. Down 2 at the half in Chicago.
Got away with picking up his 4th when Kim English picked up the T. Big break for us. He’s definitely gotta be smarter.
I do think offense has looked much better even during the Creighton game. Get mood swings watching this team when things go bad, but try to bring myself back to reality and try to look at the positives now and hopefully future.
End of day to have a chance we have to enter big east tournament with a. fighting chance. Got to get 20-23 wins. I mean I think we can literally get to 20 with upcoming next three games though we know how frustrating they can be.
IDK if one win against St Johns or UCONN will do, but just getting one would be huge for this team's confidence to at least make a close run in the BE tournament.
I mean think about it, we have basically shown we can beat most of the league outside Nova, St Johns, and UConn. We haven't beat Depaul and Butler yet, but I feel we should be capable considering how we have faired against the rest.

I'd crush everybody in Double Dribble and Tecmo Bowl!
We haven’t shown we can blow anyone out. We get down but we have a press that can get us back into any game. Sunday scares me the most of the winnable games. Thad Matta might not have the best players but he’s the smartest of the coaches. He will zone us like he did at the Rock. The 1-3-1 will make things tough on Clark. They also showed they could handle our press at the Rock. Now it’s at their place. It won’t be easy. It’s just going to come down to making enough shots.
The good news for us the other coaches are so stubborn that even if Matta makes us look bad with the 1-3-1, i don’t picture DePaul, Georgetown or Xavier using it against us because they won’t deviate from what they do to attack us.
It’s impossible to lose in tecmo bowl if you hand it off to Bo Jackson every play
Love that Sha threw in a little zone to mix it up. I"'m a big proponent of playing zone in certain situations !
Would love a player like Stefan Vaaks from Providence on our team next yr. A player who can really shoot the ball .That is the missing part on this years team .
In theory, but he has some flaws elsewhere on his game.
Great shooter-scorer, selfish player. Hey, Lloyd, I see Msgn McHugh[Pope John's], all the time, 5 o'clock Sat. vigil, should I give him your regards?
Beating Butler on Sat is critical[revenge motive],enuf of this 1-3-1 babble, penetrate the lane, draw the D to Adam, then he gets the Pill to Stephen III, Najai, Godswill, and away we go!
No reason to talk DeP until we do business in Indy
I see none of that while watching them in Nwk. Not at all.

Fair enough. In my opinion the only guys that truly give effort are Clark and Payne. And without a recent change in philosophy of allowing Clark to be our go-to scorer we would’ve lost by 15 last night due to the others efforts.
I don’t know how we will finish, but some posters on this thread are just ridiculous. How can someone say that guys have quit? If they came out tonight and got run over by PC then I would buy that. But exactly the opposite happened. They survived a non sustainable shooting half by PC, then just wore them down in the 2nd half. That’s effort, not guys quitting.

This team is very mediocre, unfortunately people conflict mediocrity with not caring. Thats the furthest thing from the truth. Theres a lot of mediocrity in the big east and it’s frustrating to be fighting tooth and nail with other mediocre teams. When you fight with mediocre teams it’s not really enjoyable basketball win or lose. I’m not one to say well I’m going to enjoy it because it’s better than we were predicted. I can enjoy high level ball win or lose. These guys play hard, they play with passion, they have guts but that’s not always going to translate being in the right position on the court, getting stops or making shots. Is this the best basketball we’ve since in 45 years? It’s not remotely close but it’s not for lack of effort 25 games in. I’ve found guys like Rivera who I root for because his passion for putting on the seton hall uniform is remarkable. You can tell he loves being here.
We won because of an all time great game by 1 player. Williams and Fischer have 100% given up. As soon as AJSM sees his shots not go in he also gives up. Hines’ effort is no where near the level it was in the beginning of the season. I stand by what I see and said.
Would you agree that defense is in large part playing hard. Especially when your team is undersized.
SHU as regards giving up PPG is one of the best teams in the country. How can that be if the team is giving up?

The answer to that is we’re beating up on bad teams. Both out of conference and now in conference. We have 1 high quality win all season. It is what it is, it’s better than losing.
