St. John's...

[Jake]

getting beat by 32 by Division II St Thomas Aquinas.

Thirty freaking two.

Parochial League games are always tough.

Sweet baby rays!...

Maybe I should get in on the Garden trip. Chalk up a dubya.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Chris Mullin - hmm.

 

[RF2044]

Can't put this on Mullin. SJU typically stinks nowadays, its just that last year they had the right combination of seniors who were multi-year starters who'd been through the wars. Things came together and they were good.

Those guys are now gone. I don't put that on Mullin. He has a rebuilding project ahead of him.

90-58 final. Wowza.

 

[skurey]

Damn I had St Johns +31

 

[SUFan44]

I don't care who graduated or who is not playing for them - that's an embarrassment.

True. Doesn't change that it is a total rebuild.

 

[orangehomer]

i thought st. Thomas Aquinas was a high school that we recruited football dudes from, What!

 

[iommi]

SJU had three players out. Still, this is a fugly loss, albeit one that doesn't count.

 

[rhcuse]

the kids probably insisted on playing m2m

 

[tee1222]

I really don't think we'll have problems getting tickets to MSG this year.

 

[Ghost]

Wow. That's a crazy score to stumble upon.

 

[obliterata]

Not surprised they lost but that's quite a margin to lose by. Let's see what happens next exhibition game.

I wish Chris Mullen nothing but the best, but yikes!

 

[br801]

And they're probably calling for Mullin's head on some SJU board somewhere.

Total embarrassment. St Thomas Aquinas lost to 5-23 Pace last year.

For those of you condemning Thamel, to me, this is the same tone.

Full disclosure, I am not on Twitter or Facebook or other social media because I would have to give my firm access and it just isn't worth it so I don't see this stuff on a regular basis but it appears as if it is acceptable for a journalist to use a non-professional tone and language on Social Media that they would never use in print or on the electronic version of their medium.

Just a thought.

I am guessing that Stubhub prices for our game will be headed straight south...

Yes, most people haven't read this article but they are waiting on the status of two of their players from the NCAA clearinghouse. I don't know if this is all NCAA's fault but it's hard to believe that it's into November and there are kids around the country that don't know if they are eligible yet. We are probably luck we found out early with Diagne otherwise we wouldn't gotten Chukwu. However, it seems like the NCAA drags their feet on a lot of issues.

Not really. It is exclamation, not condemnation. Doesn't say anything about St. John's being irrelevant.
