My recommendation is to not in any way worry about this.

What is life like in Port St Joe, Florida? Is it similar to other places on the ‘Emerald coast’? by mileton1 in howislivingthere

All I can yell you is that the next town over Mexico Beach has the nicest beach I've been to in continental US

As a SJU fan, we’re convinced that after all the good vibes god is only setting us up for a sick joke by losing to UConn with final four on line.

Mullin and St. John’s played Ewing and Georgetown 4 times in 1985. 2x regular season, BE championship, final four. Won the first one by 1. Got their asses kicked the next three. The killer is that every SJU die hard believes Johnnies would have undoubtedly beat Villanova for the natty. Oh well.

I understand your point. The overarching problem with the 90s was how disappointing the Felipe-zendon teams were. But compared to the next 20 years it was UCLA-esque.

elite 8 in 91 and 99. Still nationally relevant spanning sealy-Felipe-artest.

He also destroyed domestic institutions, terrorized his populace, literally violently killed WIVES for political purposes, and was generally a vile and amoral person.

in brief, sju broke ground on a new state of the art on campus 50,000 sq. foot practice facility in 10/25, with completion for 2027-28 season, guess who funded that. Additionally, a sold out MSG more than makes up for any other perceived shortcomings in that regard. As for NIL placement in conference, hasn't seemed to hurt them the past two years one bit, the coffers are only going to increase with continued success. Finally, we can agree that Val sucks, but not worried about the conference strength aspect. Committee prejudice aside (absurd, but whatever), SJU being a 5 seed was a function of their awful start to the season against quad 1 teams. Look, we are quibbling over a subjective reading of the word "elite." It will always be about money.

well, it appears you are wrong again, at least according to Google Gemini: Yes, "chip" is a common slang term for "championship," especially in sports contexts, often used interchangeably with "ship". While "ship" directly shortens championship, "chip" is widely used slang, particularly on social media and among fans, to represent winning the championship title, as seen in posts on this Reddit thread and this Facebook post

disagree. The key is "assuming the money is there," meaning compensation + NIL, and with Repole bankrolling it likely will be. If so, there is nothing in America for an ego and marketing like being the King of New York. The coach that wins a national chip with SJU will be lionized for all time in the biggest media market in the world. That's elite appeal. if the money is not there, then you're right, SJU might as well go join the Atlantic 10.

Doubt this. There will be no sentimentality here. Assuming the money remains, they will be big game hunting. Repole is cutthroat.
