In front of over 18,000 fans St. John's made Madison Square Garden feels like the 80s again. Red was seen to the roof, and St. John's thanks to defense and RJ Luis Jr. made sure to send their fans home happy. It was a tough game that featured a red hot Villanova team and the nation's leading scorer, but St. John's held him at bay with double teams. For St. John's they battled their own adversity finding a way to come back from a deficit in the 2nd half without Deivon Smith who had a shoulder injury. It's the third win a row for St. John's over Villanova as they are off to a 5-1 conference start for the first time since the 2000-2001 season.

From Kadary Richmond setting the tone, to Zuby Ejifor cleaning up down low to Aaron Scott filling in the gaps, it was an complete team win on the road. Xavier is always a tough place to play for the Johnnies but on Tuesday they made sure to never let up. Simeon Wilcher made key baskets late as St. John's used their defense to harass Sean Miller's group into submission.

St. John's was able to bounce back from a tough New Years Eve loss to Creighton with an eight point win at home against Butler. An awful shooting afternoon could not stop St. John's as they found a way in the 2nd half much like they have many times this season. Kadary Richmond asserted himself in the second half and made sure St. John's would leave victorious on a day they honored Lou Carnesecca on the weekend of what would have been his 100th birthday.

I'm joined by Zach Braziller of the NY Post to discuss and break it all down.

Just like last year in Omaha, it came down to the very end. St. John's had a chance to win it, not once but twice. RJ Luis Jr. had a chance to play hero but the refs swallowed the whistle at the end and St. John's could not find a way to get their third Big East win of the season. A game where St. John's led early on and looked like a machine, quickly turned into a St. John's team that had no offensive identity. Scoring was limited on both sides and St. John's could not find a way to capitalize on the slew of mistakes the Blue Jays made.

As we wrap up 2024, St. John's is 11-2. What's gone right, who has impressed and what identity has this team established. There are plenty of good things this team has done so far. But after 13 games have they met expectations? Where is the room to grow? And what do they need to do to beat Creighton on the road, a place that's been a house of horrors historcally?

David Berov recaps the first part of the season, and where this team is at 13 games into the season

It was not pretty. Frankly it was bad for a large portion of the game. From the missed free throws, to the missed three pointers, to the lack of made shots in the first half. But St. John's chipped away...thanks to Deivon Smith, RJ Luis Jr. and a buzzer beater game winner by Zuby Ejifor, St. John's beat Providence, 72-70. It was a character defining win, one that we'll likely look back on this season as a pivotal moment for St. John's as they improve to 10-2 and sit atop the Big East standings. I'm joined by Kevin Connelly of StormThePaint to break it all down.

The Red Storm opened up conference play in Queens on Wednesday with a resounding 89-61 win. It was the most complete 40 minutes St. John's has played all year, and considering the fast starting DePaul team this season, it was a confidence building performance. Led by Kadary Richmond and RJ Luis, St. John's dismantled DePaul in the paint and took away their greatest weapon.

It was a packed house inside the arena named after the late great Lou Carnesecca. Legends in the building to pay their respects to the Hall-of-Fame coach who passed at 99 last week. It was the battle of the Big East and the Big 12, a game that St. John's had to win, and it did. A tale of two halves, St. John's had issues in the first guarding the three, but in the second half the switch was flipped. Behind a career performance from Zuby Ejifor, St. John's honored Looie with a 88-71 win.
