Regarding the crying by St. John's fans: it was mentioned during the CBS telecast that (1) St. John's can't keep good NYC players in NYC any more and (2) part of the reason why is that SJU has substandard facilities compared with other Big East schools, which is exactly why they are playing UConn in Madison Square Garden.
You know that's ridiculous crying. St. John's fans can come out and support their team. It's always been like this and nobody was crying when St. John's had Chris Mullin, Walter Berry and Mark Jackson on their team and they were kicking UConn's ***. Now that they are getting their asses kicked by UConn again like they were back from 1990-2013 when UConn was in the Big East they are crying again. Maybe they should show up and support their team or their grads can donate to upgrading their facilities like UConn grads have done. Instead, like Georgetown, they have become a consistent suck-*** program with entitled fans clinging to the very distant memory of when Chris Mullin, Walter Berry and Mark Jackson were on the team and thinking those days will magically come back. Their fans should be embarrassed because their program is nothing more than a graveyard for coaches and has been for 30 years. And now they will add another corpse to that cemetery in the form of Mike Anderson who is actually a good coach but had nothing to work with as far as **** facilities and inherited the **** personnel his predecessor left him. SJ coaching cemetery is littered with some impressive coaching bodies including Mike Jarvis, Fran Fraschilla and Steve Lavin, all of whom had their coaching careers wrecked by saying yes to coaching there. Any self respecting young up and coming coach should say NO! And run the other way after taking one look at that coaching graveyard St. John's is running. It's as littered with bodies as some battlefields in Ukraine.
