The St John’s-UConn games are going to be awesome again. Huskies with a very impressive early-season win over Michigan tonight.

Tough to judge what was more impressive: the 28-0 run (over 9 minutes) or holding NJIT to 19 first half points.
Iona improves to 2-0 leading into a treacherous 4 game in 9 day stretch all on the road.

GAELS CRUISE TO A W IN THE HAC
It was an all around team effort as 10 different Gaels scored. Martin, Sadiku, and Kevon led the way, each reaching double figures in the scoring column.
Up Next: The Gaels take on St. John's at Madison Square Garden Sunday at Noon!

Once a staple of college basketball; this Season there are only EIGHTEEN "4-Year" Scholarship players in the Power Conferences in NCAA Men's basketball.

The Bonnies travel to Koessler Saturday for the 174th chapter of SBU’s oldest rivalry. Bona leads Canisius 105-68 all-time and has won the last two.
Mike MacDonald, who led the Griffs from 1997-2006, returns seeking his first triumph as Bona’s lead man.

Exciting opening win for Iona over Vermont. Iona gets bucket w/ less than second left for win!
This is different Iona team from last year - more gritty, tough & better defensively!
2 stars for Iona: Kevon Vanderhorst with winning shot & 27 pts & Kosy Akametu w/ 18 pts! GO GAELS!

Watched Western Carolina at UNC for Mike Malone debut. UNC got 80-72 win but Tar Heels need work!
- Out-rebounded 41-32 (WC got 13 Off Rebs). They spent $20 million on UNC - can't happen vs mid-major.
- Not great from 3 (9 for 30, 30%) & not enough attacking rim.
- D was shaky.

An elite offense meets an elite defense for a historic season opener ⚖️!
Purdue finished No. 2 nationally in offensive efficiency last season, while Gonzaga ranked No. 1 in defensive efficiency.
It’s the first time this century teams coming off top-two finishes in those respective categories meet to start the season.

FEATURE: Meet Quinn Ellis, the St John’s point guard Rick Pitino can’t stop raving about. He comes from British basketball royalty and was basically raised around the sport.
“He sees things that most players don't see.”

The 24 Hour Marathon is never going to be what it was back in the day where you have on campus games going on all day. That said, have to give credit to the teams and the Field of 68 for putting on this version with so many good Mid Major matchups throughout the day.

A new era of Bona hoops is here. Mike MacDonald makes his official debut as head coach Monday as the Bonnies host Youngstown State to open 2026-27.
SBU leads the series 7-1 and have won five straight, including an 84-80 win at the Reilly Center last season.

Kevin Willard must be really pissed - big game to open the season in Rome and his Wildcats turn the ball over 20 times and blow a game they led 83% of time. ND got 20 points off turnovers.
But give ND credit, they were scappy and toughed out a nice win.
Welcome Back CBB!
