5 things to know about St. John’s before it faces Arizona in San Francisco

The Arizona Wildcats only have one game this week, a Saturday tilt vs. St. John’s at the Chase Center in San Francisco, which gives us extra time to zero in on their opponent.

So here are five things to know about the Red Storm.

As outlined by ESPN, the Red Storm pursued Arizona State’s Bobby Hurley, Loyola-Chicago’s Porter Moser and Iona’s Tim Cluess for their head coaching position last offseason but were rebuffed.

That led St. John’s to turn to recently-fired Arkansas coach Mike Anderson to fill the vacancy, what many viewed as a curious hire at the time.
