No excuse for a team to have as mediocre of a schedule as St John's has lined up. It could be close to #300 this year overall and one of the 5-6 worst P6 schedules. Could easily keep them out of the tourney.
Sure, that's not a good OOC schedule. Still don't think there are people dumbfounded that Syracuse has managed to schedule neutral site games at MSG though.
I think there probably are some that are. Thought that Syracuse could get shut out of there and lose their NYC recruiting ties. They're playing in NYC probably more now than when they were in the Big East.
When it comes to exaggeration and deliberate misrepresentation, you really are incorrigible Stever. You continue to spew the same nonsense about St. John's people saying they can keep Syracuse out of MSG. No one has said that but you. St. John's can help facilitate teams getting games there, but obviously can't keep anyone out and doesn't try to.
Then we have your exaggeration that some St John's people claim Heron being eligible this year is a "done deal". Again, no one has said that but you. Some people have said they are cautiously optimistic, but that is a far cry from claiming it's a done deal, as you deliberately misstate.
But your final bit of nonsense is just an out and out lie. Your claim above that Syracuse plays more often in NYC now, than they did while in the Big East, is pure Stever. In the five years since leaving the Big East, Syracuse has played in NYC a total of 10 times, with only 6 of those being at MSG, their clear venue of choice. Also three of those games in nyc, were in the ACC tournament over the past two years, which will be an infrequent occurrence. In the five years before they left the Big East, they played 22 times in New York, each time at MSG. So in the five year time frame, they played more than twice as many games in NYC during the Big East stretch, and more than triple the number of games at MSG. But according to Stever, they play more in NYC now than they did then.
This is why everyone has such little regard for your postings, both here and on HLOH. You don't have opinions, you have an agenda, and everyone sees through it clearly at this point.
