Nice move for the Hoyas. I like Cooley - thought he'd have been a good look for UMd. last year, but apparently he was never interested.

Now I'm slightly nervous because I suspect he'll kill it recruiting the DMV. Fortunately, Willard seems to be a really good recruiter in his own right, so not too worried for now.

St. John is a private Catholic school in New York, how dilapidated could the facilities be?

It ain't Oregon but it ain't Coppin State either, at least you'll have access to the finest trust fund pawgs

Donyell Marshall was an All-American and a top 5 pick
I know, breh. I watched

You notice how when we talk about 90s Big East, no one talks about Donyell Marshall? He wasn’t in that prime season that people talk about (95-96 season).

They also didn’t make it to the final four that year.

I was there too and we talked about him up here bruh, I can't speak for your experience but I know mine. Big East basketball was a religion for nikkas that grew up in the 90s where I'm from, we didn't just talk about one season and leave it at that. nikkas still talk about Big Dog at Purdue and they never made it to a Final Four either.

My only point is they weren’t as dominant in the 90s as they were in the 80s.

They became dominant again in the mid to late aughts as well.

Good for G’Town. For as much as folks are nostalgic about St. John’s, you’d think they were damn near blue blood status. Program has zero titles, 2 FF appearances (1985) and 6 elite 8 appearance (1999).
