I was trying. What time do the Johnnies play on Sunday

@NoEscalators Congrats on being a dick without trying.

Even with the caveat of “As long as Pitino is still around”, calling this the beginning is insane. 74 year old coach next season for a school with zero 21st century track record before he arrived. This was the mountaintop for St. John’s - and it still only resulted in a Sweet 16.

Only the beginning for St. John’s. As long as Pitino is still around, they’re not going anywhere.

UConn MBB plays the #1 heavily-favored Duke on March 29.
That ever happened before?

UConn is 55-6 vs non-con opponents since 2023 and half those were on a dumb weekend on some island somewhere and two were missing starters.

Alex Karaban and the UConn Huskies are 16-1 in the last 4 NCAA Tournaments. Connecticut staves off Michigan St. 67-63 to advance to Sunday against Duke. Dan Hurley’s team is 13-1 against non-con competition. He said his team needed to play somebody out of the BE. He was right.

Since 1999 UConn men’s basketball is 29-4 (87.9%) in NCAA Tournament games in the Sweet 16 or later. The Huskies have won 17 such games in a row.
29-4!

@BradyonBigEast @HurleyMania And the best time to revisit it will be when UConn advances further in the NCAA tournament than St. John’s does.

UConn is still absolutely a better team than St. John’s.
But it’s a brutal matchup. And that’s all.

Dan Hurley is 9-0 in the Sweet 16 or later in his career. L
And Tarris Reed Jr. is now one of three players with 55+ points and 45+ rebounds entering Elite Eight since 1951, joining Zach Edey and the great Elvin Hayes.
1 vs. 2. Duke vs. Connecticut on Sunday.

Tarris. Reed.
The big bear with ice in his veins.
Connecticut just won’t give in on this stage. They’re 40 minutes from a Final Four.
