Nice to see a solid bounce back win after the loss to Vermont. Really happy with Coach Anderson. Team seems prepared, focused and plays with great energy. Happy to see some of the bench warmers from last year making solid contributions. Big weekend ahead with Arizona State on Saturday and Virginia or UMass on Sunday.

Underlined is exactly the way I would describe the Johnnies. First time watching them for a full game this year, and what a difference a good coach makes. Lavin/Mullin teams would have let a bad Columbia team hang around, but this SJU team had its foot on their throat in the first half. And the supporting cast for the two stars was better than I thought.
