Sha: “Budd’s a little unsure. I want him to be super aggressive. I just want him to play basketball.” #shbb #HALLin

Sha: “We’re still not pressing the way I want to press. We gotta get better.” #shbb #HALLin

Sha: “Second half, I thought we did a great job of not letting them shoot as much. I thought we had a good second half, came out with a little bit more energy.” #shbb #HALLin

Sha: “To be honest with you, I think the team looked tired. We gotta get these guys some rest.”

Mentioned three games in seven days. #shbb #HALLin

Sha: “I ain’t never seen an opposing coach in here that long! What was he doing, the State of the Union? I love King, he’s like my brother! But I ain’t never seen an opposing coach in here that long.” #shbb #HALLin

Seton Hall played like a vintage Sha team tonight. That last 20 was very reminiscent of the Saint Peter’s defense with constant subs and relentless old-school pressure.

Your final at the Rock: The Pirates 70, Monmouth 58. #shbb #HALLin
November 14, 2025 at 2:07 AM
They’re going down the stretch for the final 98 seconds, and after a first-half scare, Seton Hall’s going to survive and move to 4-0.

The Pirates are up 13 here, 66-53 on Monmouth. #shbb #HALLin

Seton Hall is up eight at the U8, surviving lackluster offense with vintage Sha defense in the second half. Monmouth can’t get a clean look anywhere as the Pirates are tightening up with 7:42 to go, up 51-43. #shbb #HALLin

Do we still share Sad Pitt Bear over here, @anonymouseagle.bsky.social?

One second off back-to-back exact timeouts!

Anyway, Seton Hall’s run out of the intermission is up to 15-4 with 11:59 to play, giving the Pirates a 42-38 lead over Monmouth. TJ Simpkins is up to 12 points for a host side that is getting quiet help from Budd Clark. #shbb #HALLin

A.J. Staton-McCray now has THREE fouls. #shbb #HALLin
November 14, 2025 at 1:16 AM
That first half wasn’t an oil painting. In fact, it played out a lot like the second half of this game a year ago.

Monmouth, behind 11 from Collins and 10 from Greek freshman Stefanos Spartalis, has a 34-27 halftime lead on Seton Hall. #shbb #HALLin #FlyHawks
November 14, 2025 at 12:52 AM
Monmouth is still up four, holding Seton Hall to just 21 percent shooting and using Jack Collins’ 11 points to boost a 26-22 lead with 3:59 to play before the intermission.

Staton-McCray, the Pirates’ best offensive weapon, has two fouls. #shbb #HALLin #FlyHawks
November 14, 2025 at 12:42 AM
Monmouth is back in front after another Collins three, swinging the pendulum its way to an 18-17 margin with 6:09 on the clock before halftime (hi Mom!)

Big fan of Jason Rivera-Torres, the transfer from San Francisco. He’s got five rebounds and three assists so far. #FlyHawks
November 14, 2025 at 12:35 AM
A.J. Staton-McCray has broken the ice for Seton Hall, knocking down a pair of threes and forcing King Rice into a 30.

The Pirates have retaken the lead with 10:03 to play in the first half, up by a 15-13 count. #shbb #HALLin
November 14, 2025 at 12:27 AM
Monmouth has stretched its lead out with 11:50 remaining in the opening stanza, ahead by a 13-9 tally on the Pirates. Jack Collins, who was instrumental in last year’s win here, has five points for the Hawks, who have forced misfires on 10 of 12 Seton Hall attempts. #FlyHawks
November 14, 2025 at 12:21 AM
If you like defense, you’ll love the first 4:23 at the Rock, where Monmouth holds a tight 4-3 lead.

Both teams are a combined 3-for-14 from the floor in the early going, with Payne accounting for all of the Seton Hall offense and the lone Pirate field goal. #shbb #HALLin
November 14, 2025 at 12:12 AM
Payne splits his free throws, and those of you Pirate fans who adopted the Syracuse tradition of standing until they score can get comfortable now. #shbb #HALLin
November 14, 2025 at 12:04 AM
Off and running in Newark, where even in an intimate gathering, the fans in the baseline courtside seats are standing at the tip. Monmouth couldn’t get a shot off, and Stephon Payne drew a foul on Seton Hall’s first offensive possession. #shbb #HALLin #FlyHawks
November 14, 2025 at 12:04 AM
Starters for both sides:

Monmouth — Anthony Martinez, Jack Collins, Jason Rivera-Torres, Cornelius Robinson and Stefanos Spartalis.

Seton Hall — Budd Clark, Mike Williams, A.J. Staton-McCray, Elijah Fisher and Stephon Payne.

ZEBRA ALERT — Tonight’s officials for Seton Hall/Monmouth: Lamar Simpson, Mike Palau and Michael Luckie.

Simpson was with me at Villanova Tuesday, Palau will be with me again tomorrow at Iona, and for the first time this year, outlet is the answer to #WhoGotLuckie.

NEWARK, N.J. — First time in a long time that I’ve gone through the first week of the season without seeing Seton Hall. That gets fixed tonight.

Game #10 (already?) comes from the Rock as the Pirates welcome Monmouth, who won here last November. #shbb #HALLin #FlyHawks

“We still need a lot of work.”

Kevin Willard’s words Tuesday night may be true, but if this is the first impression of Villanova through three games, the foundation may already be in place.

A somewhat deeper dive on the Wildcats:
Willard says Villanova needs work, but Wildcats’ start suggests strong foundation is already in place
