Not that it's a moral victory or anything like that, but X only lost by 5 at the same venue.

Meanwhile, #12 OK just beat #14 at WVU....

I was saying the 19 days they were off they came back and won. That was weeks ago that happened. They lost today on the road after playing a few games the last couple of weeks. Not sure what that really means but after they were off for 19 days they actually won.

Six games left and hopefully they can make up a few more. UConn was the better team today and had the better coach.

Clown,
Hope you caught the Nova game...

Huggs got in early. Before it was obvious he was going to be a stud.

I don't even know that X was ever a major player - even with dad going here. Seems like a miss.

So wait are we now comparing a shitty Steele team to a 2 seed at worst Villanova team? Man has X fans gotten complacent

3*, think only Akron, Miami, Toledo, Kent State, Ohio and Dayton offered other than WVU. Plus 2019 class where we signed Kyky and Dahmir Bishop.. Duece is good, damn good, but he really grew into his Sophomore year.

This pandemic year is goofy for sure, so no matter what happens Steele is going to get a bit if a pass on this year. But he really is on the precipice of being in trouble. We've flirted with disaster all year, and have been pretty lucky to mostly avoid it. That's great, but it also means it wouldn't be at all surprising for disaster to start finding us. We don't have a lot of margin for error on the Tournament front. And if we have a bad stretch and don't make it this year, next year would be 100% make or break for Steele.

A win at St. John's would let everyone rest easier.

Clown, what’s your point? Xavier hadn’t played in forever and lost. Nova hadn’t played in forever and won. Does it mean anything? Prob not. But Travis still has a lot to prove:
