St. John's' OOC schedule is also terrible. Cuse should be decent, but not a Cuse team of old. Vandy is #18, could definitely be better, but also wouldn't surprise me to see them completely fall apart. South Carolina is trash. Wagner, UMBC, Rutgers, Fordham, St Francis, Niagara, NJIT, UIW? You can tell St. John's is just trying to pick up wins.

Towson went 25-11 and finished a game behind Delaware in the CAA. Kent, LaSalle, and TSU were average teams. The bottom of the AAC sucked, but top to bottom, we still had a much tougher schedule, and did so with only 7 scholarship players.

I'll bet you that when the end of the season rolls around St.Johns SOS will be ranked higher than Temples. And I recognize that Temple normally schedules a challenging schedule, but there's still plenty of dogs both in and out of conference that will drag it down.

We were talking about Temple's year 2 years ago where they were so bad. My thought is that St John's SOS will be very similar to what Temple had 2 years ago. It's a very similar situation IMO.
