It’s good to see St. John’s men’s hoops on some positive lists. Bleacher Report, for example, has the Red Storm on the list of Power Conference College Basketball Teams Guaranteed to Improve in 2017-18.
“Guarantee” is a big word, but it’s the internet, you can say anything!
St. John’s is the #10 team on that list, ranked in ascending order of how much the squad could improve - and their cut line is five wins, which would put Chris Mullin’s Red Storm squad at 19 wins.
A part we find intriguing/ not necessarily accurate:
Defense is the big question mark.
