That's about how things will be going tomorrow at the Prudential Center. It's the first week of January and the team has already given up. Coach Willard is treading water with guys who have shown flashes of being decent basketball players, but are full of themselves because Bobby Gonzalez and his bottom of the barrel assistants raved about them. Who cares if they haven't actually done anything while in college, let's just fill them with hype.
The game won't be a matter of who wins, it will be how close can Seton Hall keep the game. I honestly don't care about any game this season except for the two Rutgers games (going to the home game and the road game is on my birthday) and the Big East Tournament.
Hopefully this season is like 2002 when Louis Orr had to deal with Darius Lane, Ty Shine, Desmond Herod, and Marcus Toney-El loafing their way through the season. At least Toney-El warmed up to Orr eventually, but the others were simply a detriment to the team. The team bounced back with a new core the next year, had a nine-game winning streak, and made the NIT.
No matter what, I will still be rooting for them and hopefully they will pull off the impossible tomorrow. GO PIRATES!!
