St. John's was hoping to get revenge to start the month of February against Seton Hall but would come up short. Much like the game where they were run out of the Prudential Center by 22 points, Seton Hall would use a few runs to end the first half and second half then a zone defense to stifle St. John's. From Andre Curbelo being ejected for slamming his glasses to disintegrating at the sight of a zone defense, St. John's continued to be a team incapable of handling adversity as they would be swept by the Pirates, 84-72.
After the Seton Hall recap, (10:58) I'm joined by NY Post lead sports columnist Mike Vaccaro to take us through the glory days of St. John's and his start in Arkansas as a Sports Writer. As someone who has known St. John's Head Coach Mike Anderson for over 30 years, who better to talk to to try and figure out why the Red Storm are, as he wrote, behind schedule in year 4 with Mike Anderson.
We discuss a young Mike Vaccaro covering those original 40 minutes of hell teams that Coach Nolan Richardson and Mike Anderson built. Why it worked at UAB, Mizzou, and Arkansas but hasn't at St. John's and so much more.
