How we have to look at the season right now as if it starts tonight. In the big picture sports wise unless your a die hard college basketball fan people really start to watch and get into college basketball starting in feburary. Now that the football season is over all eyes are on us and we have to start playing well.
After watching teh marquette game i really think this team is poised to make a run. I saw better intensity, and a more crisp offense. I dont agree with tinkering with the starting lineup. If were going to tinker with the lineup now after 2 months of the season it just exposes us as a fractured team. After 2 months our freshman now should better understand the system and our vetreans should be poised to lead this team so lets give them the benefit of the doubt and lets let them lead.
I very much think we have it in us to rattle off 5 of teh next 7 games and hit the BE tounrment with soem confidence. But right now its one game at a time and we shouldnt give up, Feb and march is what makes a season so lets get the win tonight against rutgers!!

Let's face it, if we dont win these next two games, it's time to pack it for next year. It's one thing to lose on the road to struggling teams, but you just cant lose to the Rutgers and Cincis of the world at home. You just cant.
Get it done, fellas.

we're about to pull off a historical run through the Big East and into the tournament. Fasten your seat belts, get your hoya hoops shirts on and enjoy the ride.

On the positive note, our starting 5 stillhas the potential to compete with anyone. If sapp can figure it out and Summers can step it up on a consisteny basis i think skys the limit. It seems like clark is a player and can only get better.
I do worry about Sims and Vaughn and subsequently our lack of depth but maybe thats only going to get fixed next year with hollis and the year fter with starks and company. I still think this team is going to compete, ratched up the intensity and put forth respectable efforts. If this team does indeed loses agains ruters and the cincys of the world and shows nothing, then we can blame teh coaching but i dont think its going tocome down to that.

I wish someone had told the team the season started 5 games ago.
