I think today is actually a pretty big game in terms of the overall rebuild Caputo is working on. Do we repeat the big win over South Carolina that is followed up with a loss at Radford, or do we carry over the momentum from the Dayton win and beat a St. Joe's team we're favored over. Winning on the road in A10 play always hard, but I think this is a massive game in terms of the overall direction of the program. Not saying we're doomed if we lose, but a win here really shows we're progressing in the right way.

Totally agree with this.

SJU is a hot team and this is a dangerous let down spot after the big wins over Mason and Dayton. This is the kind of game where you are looking for the team to maintain consistency.

Also, I’m going to be unable to attend tonight. If anyone wants my tickets for free, shoot me a message.

It's a home game.

James Bishop is blowing by defenders like they're Stallone in the sand at the start of Rocky III

Just merciless through the first 10 minutes. An absolutely relentless attack. So much fun to watch.

Harris is a one man trap right now.

First 10 minutes was a great example of what Caputo has been talking about when he says that great defense leads to great offense.

How to blow a big lead. Slop ball.

**Posted by Tennessee Colonial** 1/25/2023 7:41 pm

7 turnovers already.

Amir Harris with crucial defense: steals, blocks, assists. Hope JBIV gets off and our guards have enough in the tank to chase them around the arc in the second half.

Dean?

Playing like crap and losing now. 8 -0 run for st. J

**Posted by Tennessee Colonial** 1/25/2023 8:24 pm

Too easy for St. J now.

**Posted by DC Native** 1/25/2023 8:27 pm

Nice to see Amir get going though.

IWhat is Bishop doing?

**Posted by DC Native** 1/25/2023 8:49 pm

These last 4 minutes are a big test for us. Can we overcome an off night and still win?

**Posted by Tennessee Colonial** 1/25/2023 9:04 pm

Tough game.

**Posted by Tennessee Colonial** 1/25/2023 9:06 pm

Dean comes through
