Jerry on SHU at Nova

It’s always them in our way. This would be such a HUGE statement for Sha and this team.
We came so close to beating them at the Pavillion somewhere in 07-09. My memory is getting foggy. I was at the game. They missed a 3 to win it with maybe 10 seconds left, there was a mad scramble for the rebound, and it rolls out to a Nova guy near the top of the key. He immediately finds a guy wide open in the corner for a 3, and the rest was history. I thought that was the day. Hopefully, tomorrow will be. It would be apropos to do it against KW.
This is a massive opportunity for us to improve our resume which we have not improved in weeks. We let St.John's get away, have to get this one!
ESPN's latest assessment.....
Seton Hall Pirates
Updated: Feb. 1
Shaheen Holloway's team pulled out of its recent four-game losing streak with much-needed wins at home over Xavier and Marquette, but the Pirates need a lot more where that came from. At No. 49 nationally in résumé average and with only a single Quadrant 1 win against NC State back in late November, they would likely be on the outs if the selections were made today. (Case in point: Only 22 of the 101 entries at BracketMatrix had Seton Hall making the tournament.) The Pirates should pick up some wins facing the 54th-ranked remaining schedule, but those will need to include signature ones.
Next game: at Villanova (Wednesday)
