St. John’s will turn to transfers to avoid another March Madness snub

The mission is to not give the selection committee the opportunity to disrespect you next year. To do that, Rick Pitino and St. John’s will need to have a big offseason and bring in difference-makers to strengthen their young returning core. It all started in earnest on Monday, just hours after Johnny skipped the NCAA […]

St. John’s ultimately paid for midseason swoon with March Madness rejection

So it turns out St. John’s fans aren’t even consoled by cursing the fickle finger of fate — though they might want to use a different finger to send a message to the NCAA Tournament selection committee. It turns out St. John’s wasn’t that close to the bubble, and even the Big East teams that […]
Rick Pitino rails on ‘fraudulent’ March Madness metrics with St. John’s out

The NCAA Tournament bubble didn’t burst at St. John’s University on Sunday, as it turns out it never actually existed.

UConn ends St. John’s Big East Tournament dreams in semifinals

Now they are waiting to know their fate. The first half was fun, and for a brief moment after halftime, St. John’s University was even with defending national champion University of Connecticut. But it didn’t last long. Huskies are very good, talented, and well-coached. Now, after losing 95-90 to the top-seeded Huskies in the Big […]
It would take March Madness history to keep St. John’s out of tournament

At this point, for St. John’s to miss the NCAA Tournament, it would first have to be in the NCAA Tournament. Since the NET (NCAA Evaluation Tool) rankings were introduced in 2019, the highest-ranked team to miss the tournament that year was North Carolina State (33rd). St. John’s University is currently No. 32 in the […]
Seton Hall on NCAA tourney bubble after loss to St. John’s

Now comes the difficult part. I’m in agony. Uncertainty. It’s strange. Seton Hall will have to wait until Sunday night to find out if it’s an NCAA Tournament team. They had a chance to secure an at-large bid, but were crushed 91-72 by No. 5 St. John’s in the Big East Tournament quarterfinals Thursday afternoon. […]
Joel Soriano sparks St. John’s when it needed him most

January Joel Soriano came back at the right time. The St. John’s captain was at his best when the fifth-seeded Johnnies needed him most. He produced his best effort in recent weeks and was key to a 91-72 loss to No. 4 Seton Hall in the Big East Tournament quarterfinals on Thursday afternoon. Charles Wenzelberg/New […]
