In response to baltimore baller
Please....I was at the St. Peter's-Loyola game. St. peter's played terrific ball. We couldn't score to save our lives. No coach can play the game for his team. We came within 3 down the stretch, but on-the-court player decisions put a halt to a possible comeback.
St. Peter's dominated against Iona in the final, which is no great surprise to anyone in Webster Arena on Saturday night. Had you seen the quarterfinals on Saturday night, you would easily have grasped that the four St. Peter's seniors on the floor made them the obvious bet for champs.
That said, had we beat them on Saturday, I think we would have competed and probably beaten Iona in the Championship game.
Onwards and Upwards.
St Peter's did not play terrific ball vs Loyola. They played really good defense and we made no strategic changes to try and counter what they were throwing at us. They were almost as much a disaster on offense as we were.
I'm sorry, but to say you walked out of that arena thinking St Peter's were the clear favorite to win the MAAC on Saturday is borderline delusional.
I really wish the friends and family of JP would offer a little more insight on why Patsos is such a great coach beyond blaming everyone else but Jimmy for the program's lack of success.
