Quotes from Longeran
Coulda, woulda, shoulda,
"If we beat St. Joes in the A10 tournament we would have went, and also if we beat VCU in our home game,” said Lonergan. “So we were probably one game away from making it.”
Excuses, and now taking days off because of a poor performance
“I think this is the worst year the selection committee ever did for the NCAA tournament. It was depressing, I’m not going to lie to you. It was just really tough. We took the next day off"
Making the NIT helps recruiting, per Longeran, with exciting matchups against Monmouth
"I actually thought if we made the NCAA tournament, especially this year, anything could happen,” said Lonergan. “We could win a game or two, but let’s say we got a bad matchup and lost and the game was on TruTV. Here, we’re playing on ESPN against Monmouth, ESPN2 last night, ESPN against San Diego State. It gives us two more weeks in the media. For recruiting at least, I think actually this works out very well.”
