St. John’s did what it needed on the road trip last week, pulling out two conference road wins sandwiched around a loss at Duke. With those wins, the Johnnies are 5-5 in the Big East, with a section of the schedule to come against teams that have struggled.
Struggle or not, the Big East has played like a very even league, and the Red Storm’s structural flaws still exist. Every game is a risk, each outing dependent on the attention to detail and effort that the Red Storm put out.
Remember the game two weeks ago against Georgetown, where the players felt they were less connected?
