Sunday Conversation: Xavier is 14-1 and we’re finding problems with that

So we keep getting off to slow starts against crappy teams and then having to come back. It's been three weeks since we stomped someone. Are we scuffling? What's going on here?

I’d immediately point out that Marquette is actually a really good team, not a crappy one. Beyond that, we almost look disinterested against the ETSU’s of the world. It reminds me of Tu’s senior year against Vandy and Purdue. Fall behind, flip the switch, break hearts. It worked all the way until we couldn’t come all the way back against Baylor.

Yeah, I don't think that is a good formula in the Big East.
